Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: can't merge if you don't have fast cataloging
permissions
Severity: critical
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: NEW
Version: rel_3_8
Component: Cataloging
Product: Koha
A couple of libraries so far have reported that they are unable to merge
records through the Lists feature. They can create a list, add records to it,
and select two records to merge without a problem, but when they get to the
Merge Reference screen and click Next, they get logged out of koha and put back
to the Login screen with an error. When logging back in, they get the error
message "an unexpected number of records was provided for merging. Currently
only two records at a time can be merged."
They have only selected two records for merging but they still receive this
message.
We have tested this in 3.8 and master and in Chrome, Firefox and IE. It
actually works in IE, but doesn't in FF or Chrome (the browsers we tell people
to use for the staff client). It turns out this happens to users who have edit
catalog and edit items permission but not fast cataloging permissions. You
shouldn't need fast cataloging permissions to merge items, all it should
require is edit catalog and edit items.
Also, the error message is misleading since it's a permissions issue and not an
issue with the number of items you're merging.
