Description Kyle M Hall (khall) 2025-04-07 14:18:32 UTC
Previously, the Create EDIFACT order button would take librarians to a page to select the correct EDI Library EAN. Now those EANs are listed on the button when clicked.

The problem is this removes the chance to review the selection. There is no chance to review the selected EAN to confirm is was chosen correctly. In addition, some libraries have dozens of Library EANs making the button pulldown cumbersome to use.

+1, Our acquisitions person would greatly appreciate having the secondary confirmation screen when selecting EAN account.

Ideally it should show by default the supplier who sent the original EDI quote for that basket into Koha. That would reduce the possibility of user error of sending the confirmed order to the wrong supplier. At the moment it shows the first supplier sorted alphabetically by default.
Comment 3 SamSowanick 2025-05-01 16:09:06 UTC
Limiting to the vendor sounds like a good idea. Even still, we have several accounts per vendor and accidently sending via the wrong account is still not ideal.

Could it also be possible to have the best of both worlds, by splitting the button? One that takes you to a separate page as it was before, and the arrow-dropdown portion of the button provides the accounts as it is now. Like the "Export as CSV" button to its left.

Maybe that is needlessly complicated; just a thought.

Another possibility could be a popup confirmation with the opportunity to cancel the selection, without going to a new page.
