Created attachment 139128 [details] screenshot report result with batch modification button When running a SQL-report and using an alias for itemnumber or biblionumber in SELECT, the button for 'Batch operations with 20 visible records' disappears. Using an alias for other columns is no problem. Example SQL with button: SELECT items.itemnumber,items.barcode,items.notforloan as Status,biblio.title,items.ccode as Itemtype FROM items LEFT JOIN biblioitems on (items.biblioitemnumber=biblioitems.biblioitemnumber) LEFT JOIN biblio on (biblioitems.biblionumber=biblio.biblionumber) WHERE items.homebranch=<<homebranch|branches>> AND items.itype=<<itype|itemtypes>> AND items.notforloan=<<notforloan>> ORDER BY items.itemnumber asc Changing it to 'SELECT items.itemnumber as Itemnr, etc.' removes the button and the ability for batch processing. The same thing occurs when using an alias for biblionumber in a report. Example SQL with button: SELECT CONCAT ('<a href=\"/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=',biblio.biblionumber,'\" target=new>',biblio.title,' </a>') as Titel, items.biblionumber,biblio.datecreated as Datum FROM items LEFT JOIN biblioitems on (items.biblioitemnumber=biblioitems.biblioitemnumber) LEFT JOIN biblio on (biblioitems.biblionumber=biblio.biblionumber) where date (datecreated) BETWEEN <<From date|date>> AND <<To date|date>> ORDER BY biblio.datecreated desc Changing 'items.biblionumber to items.biblionumber as Biblionr' removes the button. Also tested it in version 20.11 with the same results.
You need to use a special syntax if you want to rename the column while keeping the batch functionality. This will work: [[items.biblionumber|Titelsatznummer]]
