dear All,
We are experimenting with data migration from our existing library
software to Koha.
We could successfully transfer the bibliographic data ( .mrc) after
appropriate conversion and also the patrons' records with photos.
However, one important job remains unfinished. We have downloaded
circulation data in Excel format and trying to upload this to Koha. We do
not know how to go about it .
I very appreciate your help :
1. Is it possible to directly upload the circulation data stored either in
a MS-Excel file or a text file?
* We have 5 fields - date of transaction, Patron codes, barcode
numbers, date of issue and due date. ( Will be converted to tab
separated file if required )
2. If not, is there any way I can convert the circulation related data
stored in Excel or text file to .koc format so
that it can be uploaded to Koha using the utility developed by
'Bywater solutions'.
3. What is the structure of .koc file ? Can any one please send
me a .koc file with few sample records in it ? From my understading
it is a simple text file with fields separated by tab.
Any input in this regard is highly appreciated.
thanks in advance,
