In self checkout, if a patron scans a stack of books one at a time, an additional blue alert-info box is rendered for each new checkout. When this list becomes long it can push the barcode input down so far that it goes off screen which can be confusing for patrons. When not using batch checkout, self checkout should only render an alert-info box for the most recent scan.
Created attachment 172774 [details] [review] Bug 38174: Fix self checkout alerts for non batch checkouts This patch adds a check for batch_checkouts_allowed to SCO. If not using batch checkout, only the most recent chekout should be rendered as an alert, instead of all the new issues for the session. This makes the input box consitently render in the same position. To replicate: 1. Login as self_checkout to localhost:8080/cgi-bin/koha/sco/sco-main.pl 2. Login as a patron to make self checkouts 3. Check many items out and notice an additional alert is rendered for each checkout, eventually pushing the barcode input off screen. To test: 1. Apply patch and restart_alll 2. Login as a patron to make self checkouts 3. Check many items out 4. Notice only the most recent checkout is rendered as an info alert 5. Confirm the Checkouts table below still loads all checkouts 6. In Admin set BatchCheckouts to 'Allow' 7. Set SCOBatchCheckoutsValidCategories to 'Select all' 8. Login to sco as a patron and enter a newline delimited list of barcodes 9. Confirm that an alert is rendered for each checkout in the batch
