Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] [External] Re: Create item/call# records without permissions

[Durrence, April]

Thanks Jordan and Remington for the feedback!

I updated the bug<https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1853062> to say we 
do grant UPDATE_VOLUME and UPDATE_COPY to Circulators and we may have to 
reconsider that choice under the circumstances. This bug gives much food for 
thought and discussion. We are planning to do a conference proposal to talk 
about our patron and staff permission changes, so I hope to meet you then, 
Jordan! 😊

Regards,

April

Jordan,

A quick glance at the code seems to support your general theory.  I don’t see 
any references to CREATE_VOLUME or CREATE_COPY in the perl code (except in the 
serials code), but I see several references to UPDATE_VOLUME and UPDATE_COPY.  
I’ll add some initial details to the LaunchPad bug, in hopes that someone else 
can take it further.

Hey April,

Our consortium is currently in the process of overhauling our permissions as 
well, using yall as a base.

After looking over it, I wonder if the UPDATE_COPY permission might the the 
culprit here. It is the only permission in the Circulator group that looks like 
it may be the cause outside of a bug. Unfortunately we haven't got as far as 
setting up new groups for testing. Give it a shot and let me know as this is 
definitely something to know since we are in a similar boat with similar goals.

Thanks,

Hi all,

have found that staff can create new volume/call# and item records with only 
the permissions granted to Circulator, which do not include CREATE_VOLUME or 
CREATE_COPY. These should be the permissions checked before Evergreen permits a

permissions that should supersede those, but am I missing something?

I created a bug with links to our permissions list and examples from two

holdings without having CREATE_VOLUME or CREATE_COPY permissions:

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] [External] Re: Webbies all the way down

[Durrence, April]

Thanks Bob and Jeff,

In the meantime, we found that the issue was resolved on Evergreen systems 
where we had deployed the changes in Evergreen bug 1797923, "Browser client 
iframe (catalog, etc.) loading page": 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1797923

This change should already be present in Evergreen 3.1.7 and up, Evergreen 
3.2.1 and up, and Evergreen 3.3.

Unfortunately, we are on Evergreen 3.1.6, so this fix is not in place for us.

Thanks for all the links, as this will be helpful to those on our team who are 
not as out of their depth with the technical aspects as I am! ☺


Regards,

April

Hi Diane,

If the holds expire, the items should show as Available/Reshelving and stay at 
that branch when staff check the items in from the holds shelf.

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Webbies all the way down

[Durrence, April]

Hi all,

This morning, we have had a rash of reports from multiple library systems 
within the consortium of problems that replicate the ones reported in these 
bugs:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1708951
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1731305
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1797923
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1731272
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1724348

None of the libraries report making changes to the default view and most seem 
to have Chrome version 74 (v.74.0.3729.167) or 75 (v.75.0.3770.80).

We have tried this experiment that did not work:
-Clear the cache
-Log back into Webby
-Choose a catalog search
-Click "set default view" once the catalog search screen is up (working 
properly the first time)

Anyone else having this issue today or have any potential 
solutions/experiments/workarounds for us to try to resolve for frustrated 
front-line staff?

Regards,

April

You can use login "admin" and password "demo123" - from there, you can create

Hi Sally,

Please forgive me if this information is already known and I missed it, but the 
link takes me to a login page requesting username, password, and workstation. 
Is there a generic login that testers should use? I believe some of the 
catalogers in our consortium would love to take a look at the cataloging 
functions in the web client and provide feedback.

Hi,

ESI has completed work on the cataloging functions in the web client.  The 
purpose of this work is to implement cataloging functions that are currently 
available in the XUL staff client in a lightweight web application. The 
functional areas that were implemented are listed on the Evergreen wiki here:

http://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=dev:browser_staff:dev_sprints:2

As always, community feedback is desired.  To take a look at these features, 
point your browser to:

https://webby.evergreencatalog.com/eg/staff/

Developers are now at work on sprint 3, which will focus on the implementation 
of reports and admin functions in the web client.  Those features will be added 
to the web client soon.

Thanks,
Sally
