Hello All! One of our staff members had a mental lapse and deleted her own STAFF account the other day. Apparently Koha tried to stop her by preventing the deletion of either the account she was logged into, or by preventing her from deleting an account with a STAFF designation, but she was determined. She changed the account type from STAFF to COMPUSE, then the system didn’t stop her from deleting it. I'm proposing that if a staff member is not able to change another staff member's username, then they shouldn't be able to change the patron type of that account either. This would prevent a staff member from unintentionally (or otherwise) deleting a number of staff accounts. Thank you! Christofer
Hi Christofer, I updated the description a bit - please check if I got it right! The permission preventing the user name change is staffaccess. I think it would be consequential to extend it to patron categories as this is the way currently to get around the intention of the perm in the first place.
Thank you Katrin ... that looks great to me.
I would also find this feature helpful.
