Description Caroline Cyr La Rose 2025-03-25 20:48:53 UTC
"borrowernumber" should only ever refer to the database column or the value in that column and therefore should always be written as one word.

We should correct the instances where it's written as "borrower number".

Here are the occurrences (if you have a local copy of the manual, you can do `git grep "borrower number"` and it will find all the occurrences of the string in all the files)

administration.rst:  in user's borrower number matches the filter condition.
administration.rst:currently logged in user having a particular borrower number, for example "12".
reports.rst:  - :code:`borrowernumber` - The borrower number from the database. This is not enclosed by single quotation marks because we wish to query Koha.
