Hello Jerwyn, Thanks a lot for the continuous support. In fact when I ran the below SQL script after creating the report, I got 0 results. It seems the items were not imported to the items table. I modified the query, I realized that the items are in the biblio and biblioitems table but not in the items table.
SELECT biblio.title, biblioitems.biblionumber, items.itemnumber, items.barcode FROM biblio LEFT JOIN biblioitems on (biblioitems.biblionumber=biblio.biblionumber) LEFT JOIN items on items.biblioitemnumber=biblioitems.biblioitemnumber order by biblio.biblionumber asc This one returned all the records I imported but with itemnumber and barcode empty. They are not in the items table. Why is that? What can I do in this case? Maybe the only left solution is the clear the below 6 tables. Please advise, Regards.

Hi Layale, Yes all records has itemnumber you may use that.

In fact we are importing data from many sources which are not consistent, so not all items have barcodes... Do you suggest that I use the itemnumber? Will all items have an itemnumber when imported? Is it generated by Koha? On another hand, I read in the wiki that I need to truncate the following tables: * bibio * biblioitems * items * auth_header * sessions * zebraqueue What do you suggest? Many Thanks, Regards.

You may also delete your records manually by generating this SQL script to be run in "Create report from SQL" SELECT items.itemnumber,items.barcode,biblio.title,items.itemcallnumber FROM items LEFT JOIN biblioitems on (items.biblioitemnumber=biblioitems.biblioitemnumber) LEFT JOIN biblio on (biblioitems.biblionumber=biblio.biblionumber) ORDER BY items.itemnumber asc When you were able to generate the report, go to Batch Item Deletion and paste the "barcode" of your item or from a blank sheet with the itemnumber of your record you can delete it as well.

It is very helpful for me to know how to import later on in case an error occurred during the import. Can you please tell me what are the tables that need to be cleaned? I don't want to delete the frameworks or the initial data that comes when installing koha. Many thanks, Regards.

Hi Layale, 'clean' has a bit different meaning here. It will clean the information about your import, but not the records from the catalog. To do that, you can go to the batch detail page and there is a button to undo the import into the catalog. But once you have cleaned the batch, that is no longer possible. Probably easiest now would be to delete the records from the database using SQL.
