Bug ID: 27364
Summary: Making previous patron cardnumbers searchable
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: 20.11
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low

Bug 18626 introduced the logging of changes to patron cardnumbers which is
great, but this still does not link together previous cardnumbers.
Imagine this scenario:
A library patron loses their library card.
They are issued with a replacement.
Old and new cardnumbers are recorded in the Modification log.
The old card is found (doesn't matter who finds it) and brought to the library.
A member of library staff scan the barcode - get no results.
This means they are none the wiser as to who this card belonged to.
Would it not be a good idea to allow previous cardnumbers to be searchable?
Some libraries may record this information somewhere in the patron record, but
a search by cardnumber would be extremely helpful. It would be useful if the
cardnumber moved into a linked field automatically when a new cardnumber was
entered.
