--- Comment #8 from Christopher Brannon <[email protected]> --- Sorry, hit the wrong key. Let me try again: Expanding on this topic, I think there are several things to be considered here: * Setting up temporary locations, aside from cart, without loosing the permanent location. * Keeping quick access to all locations: - Maybe only show the most relevant, but hovering over it would display all locations. (i.e. show CART, but when hovering, show the TEMPLOC if exists, and show the permanent location). Showing only the most relevant location would keep the real estate use low, but keep this information hand and accessable. - Keeping this information handy is important, as it would give way to custom alerts and sounds when items in temporary locations need to be shelved elsewhere. * Optionally setup temporary location expiration interval (i.e. 30 days): set it so Koha removes items from this temp location at a designated time, if desired, so staff don't have to touch records. When the item is set with the temp location, a temp location time stamp is recorded. When the item is checked in and is past the interval for that particular location, the temp location and it's date are removed. * Ideally I think this information should be kept in the item record. Yes, another table could be used, but it is not likely that an item is going to have more than one temp location, unless the CART location and the temp location are stored in a unified table. Then perhaps that information could all reside in a separate single table. But having locations with different natures in the same table might prove problematic. * Have the option with each temporary location for a popup and sound event. Those are just some ideas. I think it is worth exploring. Many libraries display books, and this would significantly help with the workflow of these items, in my opinion. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-bugs website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha-community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/
