Bug ID: 24307
Summary: Allow loose item matching for on-order items
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha

OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement

We run into this issue with libraries who are not using EDI, get their items
pre-processed by a vendor, and want on-order items to show in the catalog:
- MARC records are imported for on-order titles
- On-order items are created
- Vendor sends final MARC records including 952 tags with barcode, ccode,
location, etc
- Final records match to existing records at the bib level, but cannot match at
the item level
- Item records need to be manually touched either to add final details to
on-order items or to delete on-order items in favor of newly-created final
items
The vendor cannot give a barcode number when supplying on-order records and
(without EDI) Koha doesn't have a way to send the on-order item numbers to the
vendor to be included in the final item info.
I'm imagining something like a syspref that lets us say "if an item has
notforloan of [X], then allow item overlay without matching an itemnumber or
barcode." But as I type that I suspect there are a lot of ways it could go bad.
