Description Marie-Luce Laflamme 2021-10-13 16:17:38 UTC
If you add borrowers.borrowernotes and borrowers.opacnote fields in the HOLD_SLIP template, Koha won’t print out the patron account notes on the slip.

Test
1. Add borrowers.borrowernotes and borrowers.opacnote fields in the HOLD_SLIP template (Tools > Notices & slips)
2. Add a borrowernotes, then an opacnote in a patron account
3. Place an item on hold
4. Check-in the item
5. Select the «print slip…» option to confirm the hold

Unfortunately, these two fields are not displayed on the slip.


It would be nice to see the borrowernotes since some libraries use this field to add details about patron special needs.
Comment 1 Jonathan Druart 2021-10-19 09:13:40 UTC
I've tried right now on master with <<borrowers.borrowernotes>> and it's working. Which version of Koha are you using? Did you confirm the problem on a sandbox?
Comment 2 Marie-Luce Laflamme 2021-10-19 21:30:19 UTC
(In reply to Jonathan Druart from comment #1)

I've tried the master, the branch 20.05 and the PTFS-E Sandboxes. Unfortunately, none of them could print the borrowers.borrowernotes and borrowers.opacnote fields.

Prior to my test, I did add the following terms in the HOLD_SLIP template email and print tabs:
intranet notes: <<borrowers.borrowernotes>>
opac notes: <<borrowers.opacnote>>

The reserves.notes works fine, but the other note fields aren't showing up on the slip.

Go to http://staff-flame.sandboxes.ptfs-europe.co.uk/cgi-bin/koha/circ/returns.pl

Check in 39999000004731, click "print slip, transfer, and confirm"

=> You see the note

What did you try?

Hi Jonathan,

You're right, I can see your notes. My mistakes. After a recheck, I was testing with the intranet_message or opac_message fields, not the borrowers.*notes.

sorry for the confusion

Is there a way to add a borrowers message on the hold slip?

thanks

displayed

Test the notice templates:
Add to HOLD_SLIP the following content
"""
[% SET messages = borrower.messages %]
[% IF messages.count %]
Messages:
<ul>
  [% FOR m IN messages.search( message_type => 'L' ) %]
    <li>[% m.message %]</li>
  [% END %]
</ul>
[% END %]
"""

To display all the messages from staff ('L')

Adapt following your needs.

Although it looks good to me on itself, we have a clash with Koha::Object::messages.

In my opinion Koha::Object->messages should be renamed. ->_messages maybe?

Maybe, but you need to think of an accessor? Or maybe bug 29746 is the way to avoid it completely?
Comment 13 Jonathan Druart 2022-01-04 13:28:17 UTC
I opened bug 29785 to rename it.

Comment 19 Marcel de Rooy 2022-02-02 13:01:45 UTC
Do we actually have a rule for empty test descriptions? :)

# Subtest: messages
    1..4
    ok 1 - No message yet
    ok 2 - There are two messages for this patron
    ok 3
    ok 4
ok 14 - messages

IMO the descriptions are like comments, they should be there when it's not obvious.
