This patch adds a renewal tool that functions similar to the returns where a
librarian can continuously scan items for renewal. This script blocks
renewals that are impossible, and allow the same renewal overrides
as circulation.pl
Test plan:
1) Apply the patches for bug 8798
2) Apply this patch
3) Browse to /cgi-bin/koha/circ/renew.pl
4) Enter an invalid barcode, you should get an error message
5) Enter a valid, but not checked out barcode, you should get an error
message.
6) Enter a valid barcode that is checkout out and should be renewable,
you should get a success message.
7) Enable AllowRenewalLimitOverride
8) Enter a barcode for an item that has been renewed too many times
9) You should get a warning which you can override.
10) Disable AllowRenewalLimitOverride
11) Repeat steap 8
12) You should get a blocking error message
11) Enter a barcode for an item with unfilled holds on it,
you should get an overridable warning

This patch adds an HTML5-based offline mode to Koha's existing
circulation module, allowing librarians to check out items using a
basically familiar interface. The feature will be implemented using
the Application Cache and IndexedDB features of the HTML5 specification,
both of which are fully supported on Firefox 10+ and Chrome 23+, with
limited support going back to Firefox 4 and Chrome 11. The basic
workflow enabled by this patch is as follows:
Part 1: While connected to the Internet
1. Enable offline functionality by turning on the
"AllowOfflineCirculation" system preference.
2. Sync the offline circulation database on the computer that will be
used for offline circulation by following the "Offline circulation
interface" link on the Circulation home page, choosing "Synchronize (must be online)",
and clicking the "Download records" button. This process may take a while.
3. Bookmark /cgi-bin/koha/circ/offline.pl (the page you are currently
on) for easy access when offline.
Part 2: While disconnected from the Internet
4. Navigate to /cgi-bin/koha/circ/offline.pl using the bookmark you
created while online.
5. Start checking books in by scanning the barcode of an item that has
been returned into the box in the "Check in" tab.
6. Scan the barcodes of any additional items that have been returned.
7. Start checking out books to a patron by scanning the patron's barcode
in the box in the "Check out" tab.
8. Set a due date (the "Remember for session" box will be checked by
default, since circulation rules are not computed during offline
transactions and therefore a due date must be specified by the
librarian).
9. Scan an item barcode (if you did not set a due date, it will prompt
you) to check the item out to the patron.
10. If a patron has a fine you can see the total amount (current to when
the offline module was synced), and record a payment. Unlike when in
online mode, there will be no breakdown of what item(s) fines are
for, and you will only be able to record the payment amount and not
associate it with a particular item.
Part 3: While connected to the Internet
11. Click the "Synchronize" link and choose "Upload transactions" to
upload the transactions recorded during the offline circulation
session.
12. Navigate to /cgi-bin/koha/offline_circ/list.pl (there will be a
link from the Offline circulation page) and review the
transactions, as described in the documentation for the Firefox
Offline circulation plugin:

The primary advantage to the Firefox offline cirulation plugin when compared
to the offline circulation desktop application, is the ability to add offline
circulation actions to a queue so that multiple machines running offline
circ can have their circ actions combined and ordered chronologically before
being executed. This commit adds the ability to put actions from uploaded
KOC files into this queue. In this way, both the FF plugina and the desktop
application can be run side by side with no ill effects.

This patch adds a new user permission overdues_report for the circulation module, and requires this permission to run the overdue items
report, rather than requiring full reports permissions.
Test plan :
With a user with permissions circulate_remaining_permissions :
- Add overdues_report permission to user
- Go to circulation home
=> you see "Overdues" link
- Clik on it
=> you are allowed to access and use this page
- Remove overdues_report permission to user
- Go to circulation home
=> you do not see "Overdues" link
- Edit URL : <server>/cgi-bin/koha/circ/overdue.pl
=> you are not allowed to access this page
- Go to main page
=> you don't have access to reports module

The transfer page is only useful when the system
preference "IndependantBranches" is Off of when the user
is a superlibrarian. Otherwise it can be hidden.

All tests and perlcritic pass.
TEST PLAN :
It's about testing the display of the "Transfer" link on "circulation-home.pl".
The link needs to appear if IndependantBranches is off or if the user is a superlibrarian.
1) IndependantBranches = Off, user is superlibrarian : link appears
2) IndependantBranches = Off, user is not superlibrarian : link appears
3) IndependantBranches = On, user is superlibrarian : link appears
4) IndependantBranches = On, user is not superlibrarian : link does not appear

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.
