21:03 cait         @wunder Konstanz
18:35 cait         ghw++
18:26 ghw          thanks
18:26 SkramX       you rock
18:26 SkramX       thx
18:26 SkramX       gotcha
18:26 ghw          whenever the cronjob runs, though, Koha selects 1 copy and places that one copy in the "holds queue" for the library that owns the 1 item
18:25 ghw          If you have multiple items attached to one title and you place a hold on the "next available" copy the hold request immediately goes into the "reserves" table in the database and the next copy of that title to get checked in will trigger the hold
18:24 ghw          It is a little confusing but it has to do with titles that have multiple items
18:24 SkramX       so after a user requests a hold it first goes to hold queue and then holds to pull?
18:23 ghw          the holds to pull report is based on a different process
18:23 ghw          It won't appear in the hold queue report until after the cronjob runs
18:23 SkramX       oh - it's in holds to pull. duh.
18:23 ghw          The hold queue is re-built every xx minutes based on a chronjob
18:22 SkramX       shows under the patron in staff login but not hold queue
18:21 SkramX       sorry.. but i made a hold as a user but its not in the hold queue
18:18 ghw          np
18:18 SkramX       ok great - thanks
18:18 ghw          so the biblibre OPAC should be connected to the same staff client you're looking at
18:17 SkramX       kk
18:17 ghw          If you're not a librarian, OPAC is lingo for Online Patron Access Catalog
18:17 ghw          then switch over to the demo marked as OPAC
18:17 ghw          what you want to do is to find some patron data in the staff client
18:16 ghw          I think that biblibre's demo has sample data in it, so you should be able to.
18:16 SkramX       i dont see any way to login as patron
18:15 wahanui      hmmm... biblibre is everywhere ;)
18:15 SkramX       biblibre
18:15 ghw          which demo are you using?  ByWater, Biblibre, etc?
18:15 SkramX       or do a hold online?
18:14 SkramX       is there any onkine way for people to check items out?
18:13 ghw          good luck
18:12 ghw          np
18:12 SkramX       thanks for your help
18:12 SkramX       np
18:12 ghw          I believe it is, but I'm not 100% sure.
18:12 ghw          One of the programming people would be better at answering that.
18:12 ghw          You could probably even figure out two seperate billing models - create one patron category for monthly billing and a seperate category on a 12 month billing cycle
18:11 SkramX       is this all in perl?
18:11 SkramX       yeah
18:11 ghw          I think if you play around with it you can probably figure out a way to get it to do what you want.
18:10 SkramX       ok i created a patron and see they owe $10.i renewed them and it set the renew date to be the same date but added $10 charge unfortunately
18:10 ghw          it's cool
18:10 SkramX       sorry :)
18:09 ghw          and then to  - yep - you got it figured out before I could even finish typing
18:09 SkramX       i just created a type that has an enrollment for a month and requires a 10 enrollment fee
18:09 ghw          If you go to Administration
18:08 SkramX       i am
18:08 ghw          Are you looking at a Koha demo site now?
18:08 ghw          Then you can set the customer type so that it expires every month
18:07 ghw          But when you create "customer" types, it is possible to set up categories that are designated as "Fee Required" and then attach a fee amount to those categories
18:06 SkramX       understood
18:06 ghw          I'm an end user - I work at a library in Idaho - and we don't have any customers in our system that have to pay a fee
18:05 SkramX       I see fees for item types
18:05 SkramX       thats okay
18:05 ghw          But Koha doesn't have any built into it to collect the fee from the customer
18:05 SkramX       a fee payment per item or per period of time, ghw ?
18:05 wahanui      okay, ghw.
18:05 ghw          It is also possible to create a patron category that requires a fee payment
18:04 ghw          and then mailing them to the customers
18:04 ghw          The mailing part would be a human process of finding the items and filling the requests
18:04 ghw          As far as library software goes, Koha can handle requests - i.e. the patrons - or customers - whatever you want to call them - can use the software to place requests on items that are in the database
18:02 SkramX       I doubt Koha has that built in - does it have mailing/request built in and as a developer where could I learn more about extensing the software?
18:02 SkramX       I'm a IT/programmer guy helping a nonprofit and they're looking for an ILS with a twist - they want to be able to charge like a monthly fee and let people get items mailed to them (think Netflix without the online streaming)
18:01 SkramX       hi ghw thanks
17:59 ghw          What's your question and maybe I can help
17:58 ghw          Fortunately I seem to have found my own answer
17:58 ghw          I was just asking a question myself a few minutes ago but I seem to be the only one here
17:51 SkramX       anyone around to field some very general questions about koha?
17:50 SkramX       hi all
17:37 ghw          I've got a question about the branch transfers table
