21:09 chris morning
15:59 cm    okay, thanks.
15:59 owen  cm, see if you can catch kados for more details
15:59 cm    okay, i think i see it in the template.  thanks, owen!
15:57 owen  The authorized value is called "ITEMLOST" In our system it's mapped to items subfield 1
15:54 cm    oops, i didn't mean for my statement three lines up to be a question.
15:53 cm    if it's specified in the template i might have to change it.
15:52 cm    what's the name of your authorized value list for lost items?
15:52 cm    sorry...it shows the drop-downs, but they have no data in them?
15:51 owen  moredetail.pl isn't showing you the drop-downs?
15:51 cm    nope, doesn't work.
15:49 owen  I'm not sure where the difference might lie
15:48 owen  Like I said, this is fairly new stuff, and we had to do a lot of troubleshooting with kados to make it work right. Our detail.pl seem to be up to date with CVS, so it's not like we've got a different version
15:48 cm    there could have been an update that we missed.
15:48 cm    thanks.  i haven't tried your template lately.  i think i'll try it to see if it works better with yours.
15:47 owen  Our copy of moredetail.pl has the drop-down lists of authorized values
15:46 cm    it also isn't displayed when looking at individual items under detail.pl.  The status column is completely empty.
15:45 cm    i've only just begun looking at the code to see what's happening.
15:45 cm    it also isn't showing up in search results, but that might be an indexing problem.
15:44 cm    i think your template doesn't have those drop-down menus for the statuses anymore, at least not the last time i looked.
15:44 cm    i can't change it at all in moremember.pl.  my authority list doesn't show up.
15:43 cm    it's only working in some places.  if i change the lost status in additem.pl, it shows up.
15:41 owen  (Yeah, we don't use itemnotes, so that was never an issue we raised)
15:40 owen  I mean: it's not working at all, or it's only working in some places?
15:40 cm    we had a similar experience with itemnotes.
15:40 cm    i think it's not getting saved into items.itemslost, but just in the marc.
15:39 cm    he he, i answered your question before you asked it.  :)
15:39 owen  Is Koha displaying the status correctly in some places?
15:39 cm    yeah, it seems to work on additem.pl, but the status isn't shown on detail.pl or moredetail.pl, at least for me.
15:38 owen  The use of itemlost of other statuses is fairly new, so there may still be bugs to be worked out.
15:38 cm    so it's working for you on dev_week?
15:37 cm    yeah, owen, i'm still here.
15:36 hdl   And My experience was with an o character that was not saved in item.notforloan.
15:35 hdl   owen : I was mistaken because Tinyint(1) is said to be equivalent to BOOLEAN in mysql documentation
15:31 owen  For us it's not 0 or 1 only
15:30 owen  cm--are you still there? At NPL we have several authorized values for itemlost as well
15:03 hdl   could be better if it was a char.
15:03 hdl   A byte iirc
15:00 cm    that means it can hold one digit?
14:59 hdl   .... item lost is Tinyint(1).
14:59 cm    lost in inventory, lost by a patron and paid for, etc.
14:59 cm    i created authorized values of 0 - 3.  we have multiple meanings for lost.
14:58 hdl   or 0 (default)
14:58 hdl   you can set a authorised_value but it will contain 1 Item Lost.
14:57 cm    kind of like the item notes.
14:57 hdl   itemlost is 0 or 1 only.
14:57 cm    i have set some, but the status doesn't show up everywhere.  i don't think it's getting written to items.itemlost when i set it in additem.pl.
14:55 cm    are you supposed to set authorized values for the lost status?
14:55 hdl   What do you want to know ?
14:54 hdl   hi cm.
14:48 cm    hello all...anybody here familiar with how the item lost status works?
13:41 owen  Doesn't sound right, though
13:40 hdl   owen cm rch : why is issue_date now in items table ?
