Bug ID: 42652
Summary: Add per-account option to allow restricted patrons to
retain SIP inet access
Initiative type: ---
Sponsorship ---
status:
Product: Koha
Version: Main
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low
Component: SIP2
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

This patch adds a new per-account SIP2 configuration flag,
`patron_restriction_blocks_inet`, that controls whether a patron with an
account restriction (debarment) also has their SIP inet profile blocked.
Currently, when a patron is restricted in Koha, the SIP inet field
(FID_INET_PROFILE) is set to N. This means online services that use SIP
for authentication â such as PC booking systems or printing services â
also deny access to the restricted patron. Libraries that want to block
a patron from borrowing items but still allow them to use digital services
have no way to achieve this.
With this flag set to 0/false on a SIP2 account, restricted patrons will
receive Y for inet access, allowing them to authenticate to online services,
while checkout privileges remain blocked as normal.
The default (NULL or true) preserves existing behaviour: restrictions
block both checkouts and inet access.
Test plan:
1. Apply all patches and run the database update.
2. Go to Administration > SIP2 accounts and edit an account.
3. Confirm the new "Restrictions block internet access" toggle is visible.
4. Create a test patron and apply an account restriction to them.
5. With the toggle unset (default), authenticate the patron via SIP and
confirm the patron status response shows charge privileges denied AND
inet profile N.
6. Set the toggle to false/disabled for the account and re-authenticate.
7. Confirm the patron status response still shows charge privileges denied
but inet profile is now Y.
8. Confirm a non-restricted patron is unaffected.
