a947ef57f8 Bug 5877 Follow-up for Offline circulation improvements
Internationalization fix: Offline circulation operations in
Circulation.pm return English strings for display in the
template. These strings can't be translated, so we must check
their values in the JavaScript and return a translatable
string based on their values.

Interface change: Switching to text links for checking/unchecking
checkboxes since that is more consistent with other areas in
Koha.

e07b36dd90 Bug 5877 : Offline circulation improvements : upload all files, apply at once
Offline circ : You now can upload all offline files from the Firefox extension.
Once all circ desks have uploaded the file, the librarian can apply all of them, sorted by date.
This avoid the problem of someone issuing an item on desk A, returning it on desk B.
Before this improvement, if desk B uploaded the file before A, the return was applied before the issue,
resulting in the items reamining issued.

Observe AllowItemsOnHandCheckout syspref when using SIP self checkout

Signed-off-by: Liz Rea <wizzyrea@gmail.com>
To test:
* place an item on hold for patron A
* attempt to circulate that item to patron B (via SIP/selfcheck)
	syspref off: item should not circulate to patron B
	Syspref On: item should circulate to patron B

Both conditions passed in our testing.
Also verified that normal staff client behavior regarding this situation was preserved. It was.

1fe3514c3c Bug 6328 fine in days does not work
Some code coming from BibLibre has been lost in the process of inclusion in
3.4. The result is that fine in days does not work at all (you can setup rules,
but it does nothing)

Step to reproduce:

- Koha > Admin > circ rules > set 1 day fine every day of overdue for default
  rule
- Issue a book return date last week
- check-in the book => no debarment is set

The following patch will fix all of those problems by :

* updating borrowers.debarred to a date field (instead of tinyint). It contains
  the limit of the debarment
* changing API of DebarMember and UpdateBorrowerDebarred to pass a date
* display debarrdate where applicable. Note that a debarrdate of 31/12/9999 is
  considered as unlimited and not displayed
* added a debarrcomment, usefull to explain why a patron is debarred (this is
  independant from debarrdate changes and can be used when placing an unlimited
  debarment too)

[2011-05-12] F. Demians. It works as described. And I can confirm this
functionality is impatiently awaited by French libraries since one year. Thanks
BibLibre for the good work and for contributing this code.

Bug 6328 Followup--update DB structure

Thanks Katrin.

Bug 6328: make comment a textbox / fix debar by notice trigger

Debarring by notice triggers was broken, because the new function
expects a date as second parameter.

The comment field in patron account details was a very long text field.
Patch changes it to be a textbox instead.

Bug 6328: Lift debarment leaves patron account

'Lift debarment' redirects to an empty circulation page.

BZ6328 follow-up 3

Fixes comment 23 from Fernando L. Canizo : when the patron was debarred and debar removed
he still could not check-out.

The changes in the IsMemberBlocked (that were on biblibre/master) were lost somewhere
The sub was still checking for old_issues instead of calling CheckBorrowerDebarred
to get a debardate if applicable

Note : this bug was appearing only is you had issuing rules defined for itemtype/categorycode/branch.
Seemed to work if you had only default rules. That's probably why it hadn't been spotted before

e05d53d50d Enh 6403: Record local use stats when checking in unissued materials
Adds a new system preference, RecordLocalUseOnReturn, which when active will change the statistical
entry type from "return" to "localuse" in AddReturn() if the material was not on loan when returned.
The intended use-case here is for libraries with 'open' book drops, in which patrons can put locally
used (but unissued) materials.

Adds a small message to the user interface to confirm that Local Use was recorded.

This change opens up the possibility to record more types of statistics on return; one would just need
to update the $stat_type variable accordingly.

18c491542b Bugs 6634: manager_id not recorded for payments and rental charges
Manager_id, the borrowernumber of the staff person doing the action, was not recorded
for payments, rental charges, or rental charges on renewals.  This patch implements that.

This patch also adds the recording of itemnumber in a payment, by taking the itemnumber of
the account that it's paying off.  This addresses bug 2696, though it does not make any
change to the display logic of the Payments line in the staff client.

To test:
1.  Check out an item with an issuing charge
2.  Renew the item
3.  Pay one of the rental charges on the item
4.  Verify in koha.accountlines that each of the three above operations recorded your borrowernumber
in accountlines.manager_id

1d6fa48d19 Bug 5578 Followup: Hard Due Dates break hard-coded default circ rule
If you do not have an applicable circulation rule for a combination of branch,
item type and patron category defined in your Circulation and Fines rules,
the Hard Due Dates development prevents circulation by introducing an error:

Can't call method "output" on an undefined value at /home/magnus/kohahead/C4/Circulation.pm line 2713

This is because the $hardduedate variable is not defined.  Changing the conditional
to check it, rather that it's output, fixes the issue.  That's what this patch does.

Is this the longest commit message for a single line fix?  Maybe.

    Hard Due Dates dev part 3: implementing the due dates in circ

    CalcDateDue now calls GetLoanLength, rather than each invocation running separately one after another.  Therefore, instead of
    the 'loanlength' param, CalcDateDue now takes 'itype', and uses the info to get both the issuelength and the hardduedate info (if it exists)

    Global Due Date no longer populates in the sticky due date field in Circ, since it can't be determined before the item is scanned.  Any specified
    due date still overrides the circulation rules, if allowed.

    Hard Due Dates in the past will return an error message, but can be manually specified if truly desired.

    Also, a small fix to updatedatabase.pl to allow the old data to populate if possible.

    book.  When set to "Don't require," fines below noissuescharge will not need
    any override.
* AllowFineOverride - when this syspref is set to "Allow," staff will be able to
    override fines that are above noissuescharge. When set to "Don't allow"
    (default), staff will not be able to check out items to patrons with fines

a0dc124a95 Bug 3881: OPAC Privacy reimplementation
Reimplements Paul Poulain's original OPAC Privacy patch, with some minor improvements and changes to wording

If the library enables the OPACPrivacy system preference along with the opacreadinghistory preference, and sets
an AnonymousPatron (must be a valid patron number in the database), the user will see a new tab upon login to
the OPAC, My Privacy.  From there, the user can:

- Set their OPAC Privacy to one of three values
  0 - Forever.  This keeps their reading history unless they explicitly delete it; the bulk anonymiser won't touch it
  1 - Default.  Keep reading history until either they delete it or the library does
  2 - Never.    Instantly anonymises reading history upon item return

- Instantly delete their reading history
  There is a warning and a popup to confirm.  I've removed Paul's extra confirm checkbox, which seemed redundant

A note of which preference the patron has selected is added to the Patorn Details page in the staff client.  This is read-only.

This patch also consolidates Privacy system preferences into the Privacy section of the OPAC tab.

Thank you to BibLibre for the original implmentation of this patch, and Los Gatos Public Library for funding and
testing the reimplementation.

324991fefd Fix for Bug 4946 - hold warning needs rewording
This patch improves the phrasing of several messages by
breaking the message variable into distinct parts for more
natural-sounding warnings when:

- Checking out an item on hold for another patron
- Checking out an item which is waiting for another patron
- Checking out an item which is checked out to another patron
- Checking out an item which is checked out to this patron
- Checking out to a patron who has too many checked out

I would appreciate special attention to my changes to the
TooMany function in Circulation.pm to make sure I handled
it correctly.

e4cbc4f421 Bug 5418: Rev-5 patch new itemBarcodeInputFilter for libsuite8 style barcodes
In India a ILS product called Libsuite8 prints barcodes like b0007432. The barcode is not stored anywhere in libsuite8's database. Neither is barcode available in any of the reports generated by the software.

The barcode 'b0007432' when scanned into the libsuite8 software is de-constructed like 'b' which is the itemtype i.e. Book in this instance, and '7432' which is the 'Accession Number'. The software then takes the logged in staff's branchcode and does a join on three tables 'Location', 'Media_Type', and 'Books' to retrieve the particular record from the database.

There is no possibility of recreating the barcodes for insertion in Koha while doing a retrospective conversion, because of arbitrary length of the barcode string AND arbitrary number of zeros in the numeric part of the printed barcode AND the fact that there are no reports available from the software which contain barcodes AND the fact that the barcode is not stored in the database.
But most importantly due to the simple fact that printed barcodes are duplicated among branches.

Therefore this patch emulates the functionality of Libsuite8 software of converting the scanned barcode into one stored in Koha using the itemBarcodeInputFilter system preference.

To use this new itemBarcodeInputFilter systempreference choice called 'libsuite8', the barcodes stored in Koha must match the pattern of <branchcode>-<itemtype_code>-<accession_number>. This is easy to achieve while doing retrospective conversion from Libsuite8 to Koha.

As expected the itemBarcodeInputFilter will return unmodified barcode if presented with a barcode of pattern <branchcode>-<itemtype_code>-<accession_number>

This revision corrects the way updatedatabase.pl is changed in order to correctly update version and insert the libsuite8 option in the database. Also kohaversion.pl is changed in the recommended format of 3.0X.0X.XXX to reflect database has changed.

This revision also changes the erronorous itemBarcodeInputFilter description in koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/admin/preferences/circulation.pref from 'scanned patron barcodes' to 'scanned item barcodes' there by eliminating need for a separate patch for bug 5417.

1) applied patch to HEAD
2) set next database number in kohaversion.pl and updatedatabase.pl
3) webinstaller kicked in, update ok
4) typed the barcodes from test cases into check-in

Barcodes used my local branch code, everything seemed ok to me.

An additional edit was made to circ/returns.pl by Ian Walls of ByWater Solutions to force the dialog message for the return to
use the branch specified by the new HomeOrHoldingBranchReturn system preference, rather than always Homebranch.
