All -

Sorry.  I forgot to say what errors we were getting.    Mostly it was the 
view_user error, but also other user related errors (which frankly is a bit 
weird, since we are trying to edit an item record!).     Problem was that we 
HAD made those changes in the user permission editor.     I had assigned to our 
cataloger and acquisitions clerk all the view rights that seemed appropriate - 
including view_user.     The only other difference between records that did not 
generate an error and those that did were the creator.     Am I correct in 
assuming then, any records created by an admin need to have permissions for the 
user / viewer set at the SYSTEM level?

  Still, the fact remains that we might at some time in the future like to make 
changes to the creator of records.   Good to know that it is possible and how 
to get it done.

Thanks!

Jennifer

Subject: Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Changing creator on records?

Hi Jennifer,

I'm fairly sure this can be done in the database, but I'm curious about the 
errors that are popping up. We have a number of records in our system created 
under the admin user, particularly those that were migrated. These shouldn't be 
causing an error. What does your error message say?

We have encountered error messages popping up because records were added to the 
system under the admin login.   Is there a way to find those records and also 
to CHANGE the creator to a cataloger username?     I can't see a way to do it 
on the record within the staff client.  Is there a way at the database level?

Thanks!
