Bug ID: 31349
Summary: Add option to not update items.permenent_location when
editing items.location
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low

Generally, when one edits the shelving location (items.location) of an item,
Koha also updates the permanent shelving location (items.permanent_location) to
match. However, some libraries prefer to make it possible to edit the location
without updating the permanent location. This allows one to set an item to a
temporary location that automatically clears at checkin using the
UpdateItemLocationOnCheckin syspref.
That setup currently relies upon editing frameworks to make permanent location
an editable field. That setup has proven fragile, as shown in bug 27837, bug
28832, bug 30909, and bug 31187. I suggest adding a more specific mechanism for
this workflow in hopes that it will remain more stable and usable.
In the item edit and item batch mod screens, we could put a checkbox next to
the field for shelving location. The checkbox is labeled "Update permanent
shelving location" and is checked by default. If one un-checks it, that edit
will only update shelving location, not permanent location.
The checkbox could be hidden with CSS if one doesn't want to use this feature.
Or, if folks prefer, we could create a system preference to show/hide it.
