d45c9a673b Bug 10863: Add 2 circulation permissions: force_checkout and lift_restriction
This patch adds 2 circulation permissions: force_checkout and
lift_restriction.

During upgrade, these two permission are added to existing staff
users that already have the base circulate permission.

force_checkout allows a librarian to force a checkout if a limitation
occurred.

lift_restriction allows a librarian to lift a restriction for a patron.

Test plan:
1/ Find a debarred patron and go on the checkout page. The "Lift
restriction" button should be present only if the logged librarian has
the lift_restriction permission.
2/ If the force_checkout permission is set, a librarian should be
allowed to check out in several cases:
- age restriction
- the item is issued to another patron
- the item is not for loan
- the patron has overdue items
- the item is lost
- the item is a high demand item
- the item is reserved
- another case ?

Bug 10863: Follow-up: Adding missing permissions to translated files

This patch adds the 2 new permissions to all remaining sample files.
If the permissions don't get installed, the problem is bigger than
having an English description.

Also adds back the question "Check out anyway?" for high demand items (HIGHHOLDS).

Test xt/permissions.t passes now.

Bug 10863: Rename lift_restriction with manage_restrictions

The pref manage_restrictions now takes into account "Lost card" and
"Gone no address" restrictions.

Test plan:
- log in with a user with manage_restrictions permission
- verify you can set/unset restrictions when editing a patron
- log in with a user without manage_restrictions permission
- verify you cannot set/unset restrictions when editing a patron

54616c37e2 Bug 7295: More granular permissions for baskets
- Add branch info to baskets
- Add a list of borrowers that are allowed to manage a basket (one list
for each basket).
- Add a new subpermission: acquisition => order_manage_all

If user is superlibrarian, or if that user has permission acquisition = 1
(GranularPermissions = OFF), or subpermission acquisition =>
order_manage_all (GranularPermissions = ON), that user is authorised to manage
all baskets.

Depending on syspref AcqViewBaskets:
  'all': user can manage all baskets
  'branch': user can manage baskets of their branch (the basket branch is
            taken into account, not the branch of the basket's creator).
            If basket branch is not defined, all users can manage this
            basket.
  'user': user can manage baskets she created, and baskets in their
          user list

There are unit tests in t/Acquisition/CanUserManageBasket.t, which
require Test::MockModule

You can edit basket's branch and users list in basket modification page
(acqui/basket.pl)

d2052311cb Bug 8435: add permission to enable editing other library's serials if IndependantBranches is on
In the serial module, we want to hide serials from others libraries.
However, to permit central serials manage, this patch introduces a
new permission, 'superserials'. If a staff member has this permission,
that person can override the restriction.

Test plan:
- Switch on the IndependantBranches syspref
- Add the permission 'superserials' for a patron and test you can
  navigate and see all serials
- Remove this permission and test you cannot manage/view subscriptions

48b0472a63 Bug 7688: Change subscription numbering pattern and frequencies
Serials numbering pattern and frequencies are no longer hard-coded. Now
it's possible to create, edit and delete numbering patterns (and
frequencies). This patch adds two new sql tables
(subscription_numberpatterns and subscription_frequencies)

Numbering patterns behave almost as before, there are still the same
values to configure (addX, everyX, settoX, whenmorethanX). lastvalueX
and innerloopX remain in subscription tables.

There is a new value in numbering patterns: numberingX. For each
"column" (X, Y or Z) you can tell how to format the number. Actually
numberingX can be set to:
 - 'dayname' (name of the day) (0-6 or 1-7 depending on which day is the
   first of the week)
 - 'monthname' (name of the month) (0-11)
 - 'season' (name of the season) (0-3) (0 is Spring)

These names are localized by using POSIX::setlocale and POSIX::strftime
and setting a 'locale' value to the subscription. Locale have to be
installed on the system.

Note that season names are not localized using POSIX::strftime (it can't
do this), so names are hardcoded into the code (available languages: en,
fr). This could be fixed in the future by using a Perl localization
framework.

Frequencies can be configured using 3 parameters:
 - 'unit': one of 'day', 'week', 'month', 'year'
 - 'issuesperunit': integer >= 1, the number of received issues per
   'unit'
 - 'unitsperissue': integer >= 1, the number of 'unit' between two
   issues
One of 'issuesperunit' and 'unitsperissue' must be equal to 1.
Examples:
  unit = 'day', issuesperunit=3, unitsperissue=1 => 3 issues per day
  unit = 'week', issuesperunit=1, unitsperissue=3 => 1 issue each 3
  weeks

Prediction pattern is now computed server-side and is more consistent
with what Koha will do. The publication date is displayed alongside the
serial number.

Irregularities can now be checked one by one, in the prediction pattern
table, or if frequency is 'day-based' (unit is 'day'), there is the
possibility to check all issues for a week day at once.

When an irregularity is found, there is the possibility to keep the
serial number unchanged, or to skip it. It is configured at subscription
creation or modification.

For instance, with a daily subscription you can have:
  skip serial number  |  keep serial number
----------------------+----------------------
 2012-01-01  ¦  No 1  | 2012-01-01  ¦  No 1
 2012-01-03  ¦  No 3  | 2012-01-03  ¦  No 2

To lighten the subscription modification page, manual history has been
moved in its own page subscription-history.pl which is accessible on
subscription-detail.pl, tab 'Planning'.

Important note: updatedatabase.pl script takes into account existing
subscriptions and create appropriate numbering patterns for them (it
tries to create as few patterns as possible). Frequency is
mapped to the correct entry in subscription_frequencies table.

This patch includes kohastructure.sql and updatedatabase.pl changes
+ sample frequencies data and sample numberpatterns data for fresh
installs (sample data is included in updatedatabase.pl)

=== TEST PLAN: ===

Create a new subscription:

  - Go to Serials module and click "New subscription" button
  - On the first page, choose a biblio and click next to go to the
    second page
  - Pick a first issue publication date
  - Choose frequency '1/day'
  - Choose a subscription length of 15 issues
  - Choose a subscription start date
  - Choose numbering pattern 'Volume, Number'
  - A table appears, fill 'Begins with' cells with '1'
  - Click on 'Test prediction pattern' button

The prediction pattern is displayed at the right of the page. You can
see in it the serial number, the publication date and a checkbox to
allow you to choose which serials will not be received (irregularities).

You can see that serial number start from "Vol 1, No 1" continue to "Vol
1, No 12" and then restart with "Vol 2, No 1".

Frequency is '1/day' so you can see that publication date is incremented
by one day line after line.

  - Now you can play a little with frequencies and numbering patterns,
    change one of them (or both) and click again on 'Test prediction
    pattern'
  - For example, choose frequency '3/weeks' and click on 'Test
    prediction pattern' button'.

There is a little behaviour change compared with current master.
Publication date will not be guessed within the week. Koha can't know
when you will receive issues. So the publication date stay the same
(monday of each week) for 3 consecutive issues and then jump to the next
week.

  - Now choose frequency '1/3 months' and numbering pattern 'Seasonal'
  - Fill 'Begins with' cells with '2012' for Year and '0' for Season
  - Click on 'Test prediction pattern'
  - You should have something like 'Spring 2012', 'Summer 2012', ...,
    'Winter 2012', 'Spring 2013'
  - Note that you can have seasons for south hemisphere by entering '2'
    in 'Year/Inner counter'
  - 2nd note: if you have some locales installed on your system, you can
    type its name in the 'Locale' field (actually it does not work for
    seasons name, only for month names and day names)

If you want to modify the numbering pattern you can still do it here:

 - Click on 'Show/Hide advanced pattern' link. The advanced pattern
   table is shown but all fields are readonly
 - Click on 'Modify pattern' button. All readonly fields are now
   editable. Note that 'Begins with' and 'Inner counter' line are
   repeated here and any modifications in the small table will be
   replicated in the big table, and vice versa.
 - Pattern name is emptied, if you type a new name, a new pattern will
   be created, and if you type the same name as an existing numbering
   pattern, this one will be modified (with a confirmation message)
 - There is two new lines in this table:
   - Label: it's what is displayed in the smaller table headers above
   - Numbering: used to format numbers in different ways. can be
     'seasons', 'monthname' or 'dayname'. Month name and day name can be
     localized using the 'Locale' field. Seasons can't (values for
     English and french are hard-coded in Serials.pm)
 - You can modify what you want in the table and click on 'Test
   prediction pattern' button each time you want to see your
   modifications. (Note that checkboxes for irregularities aren't displayed
   in this mode, and you can't save the subscription until you have saved
   or cancelled your changes).
 - To cancel your modifications, just click on 'Cancel modifications'
   button.
 - To save them, click on 'Save as new pattern'. If the pattern name is
   already existing, a confirmation box will ask you if you want to
   modify the existing numbering pattern. Otherwise a new pattern will be
   created and automatically selected.

Once you have finished modifying numbering pattern, you can click again
on 'Test prediction pattern' to define irregularities, and then click on
'Save subscription'.

Now you can check the serials module still works correctly:

 - Check the subscription detail page to confirm that nothing is
   missing. Especially the 'Frequency' and 'Number pattern' information.
 - Try to receive some issues. Check that the serial number is correctly
   generated and if irregularities you have defined are taken into
   account (if you have defined some).
 - Check that receiving is blocked once you have reached the number of
   issues you have defined in subscription length (or once you have
   reached the subscription end date)

In serials menu (to the left of almost each page of serials menu) you
have two new links: 'Manage frequencies' and 'Manage numbering
patterns'.

'Manage numbering patterns' lead to a page which list all numbering
patterns and allow you to create, edit or delete them. The interface is
almost the same as numbering pattern modification in subscription-add.pl

'Manage frequencies' lead to a page which list all frequencies and allow
you to create, edit or delete them.

Try to create a new frequency:
 - Click on 'Manage frequencies' link in the serials menu and then click
   on 'New frequency':
 - Fill in the description (mandatory).
 - Unit is one of 'day', 'week', 'month', year' or 'None' ('None' is for
   an irregular subscription)
 - If unit is different from 'None' you have to fill the two following
   fields (Issues per unit, and Units per issue)
 - Note that at least one of those must be equal to 1
 - Issues per unit is the number of received issues by 'unit' and Units
   per issue is the number of 'unit' between two issues
 - Display order is used to build the drop-down list. Leave empty and it
   will be set to 0 (top of the list)
 - Then click on 'Save'
 - Check that this new frequency appears in the frequencies table and in
   the drop-down list in subscription-add.pl

Subscription history has been moved in its own page. To test if it still
works, choose a subscription with manual history enabled (or modify an
existing subscription to turn on manual history).

 - On the detail page, tab 'Planning', you should have a link 'Edit history'.
 - Click on it
 - Modify history and click on Save
 - In tab 'Summary' you should have the infos you just entered

And finally, you can check that old subscriptions (by old I mean
subscriptions that existed before the update) are correctly linked to an
existing numbering pattern and an existing frequency. Numbering patterns
should be named 'Backup pattern X' where X is a number.

Bug 7688: Fix generating next serial when there is no 'Expected' issue

It can happen when the Expected issue is claimed. In this case the
status of the last serial is 'Claimed'

This patch change the API of GetNextSeq and GetSeq

Test plan:
- Create a subscription which starts a long time ago so that serials
  automatically appear in late issues
- Receive the first serial
- Go to claims page and claim the 2nd serial.
- Go back to the subscription page and click on 'Serial collection'
- You should have 2 serials, one 'Arrived' and one 'Claimed'.
- Click on Generate Next. This should fail with a software error message

be869ab279 Bug 8215 - Course Reserves
Adds a course reserves system for academic libraries.

The course reserves system allows libraries to create courses
and put items on reserves for those courses.

Each item with at least one reserve can have some of its attributes
modified while it is on reserve for at least one active course.
These attributes include item type, collection code, shelving location,
and holding library. If there are no active courses with this item
on reserve, it's attributes will revert to the original attributes
it had before going on reserve.

Test Plan:
  1) Create new authorised value categories DEPARTMENT and TERM
  2) Create a new course, add instructors to that course.
  3) Reserve items for that course, verify item attributes have changed.
  4) Disable course, verify item attributes have reverted.
  5) Enable course again, verify item attributes again.
  6) Delete course, verify item attributes again.
  7) Create two new courses, add the same item(s) to both courses.
  8) Disable one course, verify item attributes have not reverted.
  9) Disable both courses, verify item attributes have reverted.
 10) Enable one course, verify item attributes are again set to the
     new values.
 11) Edit reserve item attributes, verify.
 12) Disable all courses, edit reserve item attributes, verify
     the item itself still has its original attributes, verify
     the reserve item attributes have been updated.
 13) Verify the ability to remove instructors from a course.
 14) Verify new permissions, top level coursereserves, with
     subpermissions add_reserves and delete_reserves.

dc9ff3c53d Bug 7688: Change subscription numbering pattern and frequencies
Serials numbering pattern and frequencies are no more hard-coded. Now
it's possible to create, edit and delete numbering patterns (and
frequencies). This implies new sql tables (subscription_numberpatterns
and subscription_frequencies)

Numbering patterns behave almost as before, there are still the same
values to configure (addX, everyX, settoX, whenmorethanX). lastvalueX
and innerloopX remain in subscription tables.

There is a new value in numbering patterns: numberingX. For each
"column" (X, Y or Z) you can tell how to format the number. Actually
numberingX can be set to:
 - 'dayname' (name of the day) (0-6 or 1-7 depending on which day is the
   first of the week)
 - 'monthname' (name of the month) (0-11)
 - 'season' (name of the season) (0-3) (0 is Spring)

These names are localized by using POSIX::setlocale and POSIX::strftime
and setting a 'locale' value to the subscription. Locale have to be
installed on the system.
Note that season names are not localized using POSIX::strftime (it can't
do this), so names are hardcoded into the code (available languages: en,
fr). This could be fixed in the future by using a Perl localization
framework.

Frequencies can be configured using 3 parameters:
 - 'unit': one of 'day', 'week', 'month', 'year'
 - 'issuesperunit': integer >= 1, the number of received issues per
   'unit'
 - 'unitsperissue': integer >= 1, the number of 'unit' between two
   issues
One of 'issuesperunit' and 'unitsperissue' must be equal to 1.
Examples:
  unit = 'day', issuesperunit=3, unitsperissue=1 => 3 issues per day
  unit = 'week', issuesperunit=1, unitsperissue=3 => 1 issue each 3
  weeks

Prediction pattern is now computed server-side and is more consistent
with what Koha will do. The publication date is displayed alongside the
serial number.
Irregularities can now be checked one by one, in the prediction pattern
table, or if frequency is 'day-based' (unit is 'day'), there is the
possibility to check all issues for a week day at once.

When an irregularity is found, there is the possibility to keep the
serial number unchanged, or to skip it. It is configured at subscription
creation or modification.
For instance, with a daily subscription you can have:
  skip serial number  |  keep serial number
----------------------+----------------------
 2012-01-01  ¦  No 1  | 2012-01-01  ¦  No 1
 2012-01-03  ¦  No 3  | 2012-01-03  ¦  No 2

To lighten the subscription modification page, manual history has been
moved in its own page subscription-history.pl which is accessible on
subscription-detail.pl, tab 'Planning'.

Important note: updatedatabase.pl script takes into account existing
subscriptions and create appropriate numbering patterns for them (it
tries to create as few patterns as possible). Frequency is
mapped to the correct entry in subscription_frequencies table.

This patch includes kohastructure.sql and updatedatabase.pl changes
+ sample frequencies data and sample numberpatterns data for fresh
installs (sample data is included in updatedatabase.pl)

=== TEST PLAN: ===

Create a new subscription:

  - Go to Serials module and click "New subscription" button
  - On the first page, choose a biblio and click next to go to the
    second page
  - Pick a first issue publication date
  - Choose frequency '1/day'
  - Choose a subscription length of 15 issues
  - Choose a subscription start date
  - Choose numbering pattern 'Volume, Number'
  - A table appears, fill 'Begins with' cells with '1'
  - Click on 'Test prediction pattern' button

The prediction pattern is displayed at the right of the page. You can
see in it the serial number, the publication date and a checkbox to
allow you to choose which serials will not be received (irregularities).

You can see that serial number start from "Vol 1, No 1" continue to "Vol
1, No 12" and then restart with "Vol 2, No 1".

Frequency is '1/day' so you can see that publication date is incremented
by one day line after line.

  - Now you can play a little with frequencies and numbering patterns,
    change one of them (or both) and click again on 'Test prediction
    pattern'
  - For example, choose frequency '3/weeks' and click on 'Test
    prediction pattern' button'.

There is a little behaviour change compared with current master.
Publication date will not be guessed within the week. Koha can't know
when you will receive issues. So the publication date stay the same
(monday of each week) for 3 consecutive issues and then jump to the next
week.

  - Now choose frequency '1/3 months' and numbering pattern 'Seasonal'
  - Fill 'Begins with' cells with '2012' for Year and '0' for Season
  - Click on 'Test prediction pattern'
  - You should have something like 'Spring 2012', 'Summer 2012', ...,
    'Winter 2012', 'Spring 2013'
  - Note that you can have seasons for south hemisphere by entering '2'
    in 'Year/Inner counter'
  - 2nd note: if you have some locales installed on your system, you can
    type its name in the 'Locale' field (actually it does not work for
    seasons name, only for month names and day names)

If you want to modify the numbering pattern you can still do it here:

 - Click on 'Show/Hide advanced pattern' link. The advanced pattern
   table is shown but all fields are readonly
 - Click on 'Modify pattern' button. All readonly fields are now
   editable. Note that 'Begins with' and 'Inner counter' line are
   repeated here and any modifications in the small table will be
   replicated in the big table, and vice versa.
 - Pattern name is emptied, if you type a new name, a new pattern will
   be created, and if you type the same name as an existing numbering
   pattern, this one will be modified (with a confirmation message)
 - There is two new lines in this table:
   - Label: it's what is displayed in the smaller table headers above
   - Numbering: used to format numbers in different ways. can be
     'seasons', 'monthname' or 'dayname'. Month name and day name can be
     localized using the 'Locale' field. Seasons can't (values for
     english and french are hard-coded in Serials.pm)
 - You can modify what you want in the table and click on 'Test
   prediction pattern' button each time you want to see your
   modifications. (Note that checkboxes for irregularities aren't displayed
   in this mode, and you can't save the subscription until you have saved
   or cancelled your changes).
 - To cancel your modifications, just click on 'Cancel modifications'
   button.
 - To save them, click on 'Save as new pattern'. If the pattern name is
   already existing, a confirmation box will ask you if you want to
   modify the existing numbering pattern. Otherwise a new pattern will be
   created and automatically selected.

Once you have finished modifying numbering pattern. You can click again
on 'Test prediction pattern' to define irregularities, and then click on
'Save subscription'.

Now you can check the serials module still works correctly:

 - Check the subscription detail page to confirm that nothing is
   missing. Especially the 'Frequency' and 'Number pattern' infos
 - Try to receive some issues. Check that the serial number is correctly
   generated and if irregularities you have defined are taken into
   account (if you have defined some).
 - Check that receiving is blocked once you have reached the number of
   issues you have defined in subscription length (or once you have
   reached the subscription end date)

In serials menu (to the left of almost each page of serials menu) you
have two new links: 'Manage frequencies' and 'Manage numbering
patterns'.

'Manage numbering patterns' lead to a page which list all numbering
patterns and allow you to create, edit or delete them. The interface is
almost the same as numbering pattern modification in subscription-add.pl

'Manage frequencies' lead to a page which list all frequencies and allow
you to create, edit or delete them.

Try to create a new frequency:
 - Click on 'Manage frequencies' link in the serials menu and then click
   on 'New frequency':
 - Fill in the description (mandatory).
 - Unit is one of 'day', 'week', 'month', year' or 'None' ('None' is for
   an irregular subscription)
 - If unit is different from 'None' you have to fill the two following
   fields (Issues per unit, and Units per issue)
 - Note that at least one of those must be equal to 1
 - Issues per unit is the number of received issues by 'unit' and Units
   per issue is the number of 'unit' between two issues
 - Display order is used to build the drop-down list. Leave empty and it
   will be set to 0 (top of the list)
 - Then click on 'Save'
 - Check that this new frequency appears in the frequencies table and in
   the drop-down list in subscription-add.pl

Subscription history has been moved in its own page. To test if it still
works, choose a subscription with manual history enabled (or modify an
existing subscription to turn on manual history).

 - On the detail page, tab 'Planning', you should have a link 'Edit history'.
 - Click on it
 - Modify history and click on Save
 - In tab 'Summary' you should have the infos you just entered

And finally, you can check that old subscriptions (by old I mean
subscriptions that existed before the update) are correctly linked to an
existing numbering pattern and an existing frequency. Numbering patterns
should be named 'Backup pattern X' where X is a number.

- 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

eb7e930eea Bug 7977: Quote-of-the-day (QOTD) Feature for OPAC
This feature will add the option of displaying a select quote
for the day on the OPAC homepage. It will include the addition
of a QOTD editor in the tools section of the staff interface
which will allow the addition, editing, and deletion of quotes.
A single system preference will enable/disable the display of
the QOTD on the OPAC homepage. A new granular permission will
also be added to conrol user access to the QOTD editor tool.

Possible extentions to this would be code to allow alternate
quote selection algorithms to be added to vary how the currently
displayed quote is selected from the table of quotes.

This patch is a squash of the following work:

--Adding quotes table to kohastructure.sql and updatedatabase.pl

Note: This patch is intended for a MySQL based installation only.
That means that it includes backticks because that is what is required
at this point in history to install Koha correctly on a MySQL based
installation.

Feel free to port this over to the Pg stuff in the data/Pg directory.

--Adding system preference to control display of QOTD on OPAC main page
--Adding sample quote data

These quotes are taken from various US presidents. I'm not sure these
are applicable to the rest of the world, so I'm leaving it to translators
and others to add sample quote data for other languages.

--Adding edit_quotes user permissions
--Squash with other db related patches in this series
--Adding quotes editor pages to tools
--Adding QOTD editor link to tools homepage
--Integration of DataTables into QOTD Editor
--Impleminting jEditable into the quote editor
--Adding delete and add option to editor
--Fixing OPAC display so the QOTD div does not show if no quote is returned
--Also removing useless code from tools/quotes.pl
--Adding spans around QOTD foo in opac-main.tt
--Also fixing quote selection logic to accomodate the possibility of
    a single quote in the db a litte better.
--Changing timestamp column header to a more user-friendly 'Last Displayed'
--Fixing bug in quote selection logic. This bug caused a situation where
    when the table had only a single quote with an id greater than 1 in it,
    no quote would be selected.
--Fixing up sorting in the quote editor table. --jcamins
--Adding span element to quote separator --jcamins
--Overriding the default empty table message supplied by datatables-strings.inc
--Adds missing page heading
--Adds beginning of click-for-help elements.
--Refactors delete functionality to allow selecting of quotes to delete,
    enabling multi-delete.
--Refactors saving added quote functionality so that striking <Enter>
    saves the new quote.
--Refactors canceling aded quote functionality so that striking <Esc>
    cancels the new quote.
--Removing debug console.log statements
--Implementng the YUI button widget/toolbar used on other pages.
--Adds a 5px radius to all YUI buttons to bring them into
    conformity with the general trend toward rounded corners
--Fixes capitalization in quote editor
--Implements improvements suggested by jcamins and oleonard
--Adds DataTables Plugin dataTables.fnReloadAjax.js

This patch adds 2 columns in the aqorders table :
- claims_count : number of claims for an orders
- claimed_date : date of the lastest claim

In the lateorders.pl table, you can not select orders from different
supplier because there is just one letter sent after clicking the "Claim
order" button. So, it's logic that you want to select only orders from
this supplier.

Modification in C4/Letters.pm:
refactoring code for claimacquisition and claimissues letter type.
Now, fields for theses letters check the table name. It's not possible
to chooce aqorders.title, this field doesn't exist !
Furthermore, you can add a <order> tag around your item fields, like
this :

-- Begin example
<<LibrarianFirstname>>
<<LibrarianSurname>>

<<aqbooksellers.contact>>
<<aqbooksellers.address1>>
<<aqbooksellers.phone>>
<<aqbasket.basketno>>
<<aqbooksellers.phone>>
<order>Library : <<items.homebranch>>
In your possesssion : <<biblio.author>>. <<biblio.title>>.
<<biblioitems.publishercode>>, <<biblioitems.publicationyear>>.
Callnumber : <<items.itemcallnumber>>. doc type : <<items.itype>>
Barcode : <<items.barcode>>

I have mostly deleted old syspref files and created new ones, with a new name,
mainly in order to reduce the risk of merge conflicts if the old syspref files

See http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Simplified_syspref_handling_RFC for

differ from the global default.

.txt files have been moved to reflect the new names of the SQL files they are

f1663ada48 Bug 4421: Add alternate holdings display and prefs
This patch adds the ability to specify a field with alternate holdings
information for display when a biblio has no items associated with it.

Two sysprefs are added:
* AlternateHoldingsField specifies what field/subfields contain the alternate
holdings information. When blank, the alternate holdings information is not
displayed. The default is blank, as this is a new feature.
* AlternateHoldingsSeparator specifies the string to be used to separate
multiple subfields in the alternate holdings display. The default is ' '.

Example use case:
A library which does not have a 1-1 relationship between uncontrolled 852 fields
from a legacy system and actual physical items on the shelf wishes to display
holdings information from the 852, but does not want to create item records
which are almost certain to be inaccurate. By enabling the alternate holdings
feature (AlternateHoldingsField = '852abcdhi' and AlternateHoldingsSeparator =
' -- '), the library is able to gradually add item records as they locate the
physical items, without losing the holdings information presently stored in the
uncontrolled 852 fields.

To test:
1) Set AlternateHoldingsField to '852abcdhi'
2) Set AlternateHoldingsSeparator to ' -- '
3) Change the hidden value of subfields 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'h', and/or 'i' of
   field 852 to 0 so that they display
4) Create a record which has data in the 852, but no item record
5) Look at holdings tab, where the data you entered should be displayed
