If the ReturnToShelvingCart syspref is on, and something needs to go in transit,
the shelving cart setting is overriding the transit.
What seems to be happening is this:
* Item is checked in, and flagged as needing to go in transit from A to B.
* Item is immediately flagged as shelving cart, though. Current display says both shelving cart and in transit.
* After the cart-to-shelf script runs, item comes out of transit and
shows as being available at the destination library, although it hasn't
arrived yet and no one has manually checked it in.

As noted in comment #4 by Jonathan Druart, this should be fixed in every call
to DateTie::truncate function. This patch does exactly that.
julian_m tested that truncate( to => 'days' ) didn't actually do anything, so
it is understandable that this 'fix' might introduce new bugs as we might have
'fixed' at a higher libs level this issue.
'minutes' is used in truncate function too, so fixing.

For the CHECKIN and CHECKOUT notices, any data that is issue specific
does not show. For example, date due.
For CHECKOUT, this is caused not passing in the issues table as part
of the 'table' hash used by C4::Letters::GetPreparedLetter.
For CHECKIN notices, we need the old_issues table instead, as the item

Because updating the total issues count associated with a bibliographic
record on issue could cause a significant load on the server, this
commit adds the syspref UpdateTotalIssuesOnCirc (which defaults to OFF
to match existing behavior). The syspref has the following description:
Do/Do not update a bibliographic record's total issues count whenever
an item is issued (WARNING! This increases server load significantly;
if performance is a concern, use the update_totalissues.pl cron job
to update the total issues count).
Bug 6557: automatically increment totalissues
Adds the ability to automatically increment biblioitems.totalissues
whenever an item is issued.
To test:
1) Choose a record with at least one item that can circulate
2) Check the value of 942$0 (you may need to look at the plain MARC view
on the OPAC). Most likely there won't be any 942$0 at all
3) Enable UpdateTotalIssuesOnCirc
4) Check out the item you selected
5) Check the value of 942$0 (you may need to look at the plain MARC view
on the OPAC). That value should now be one greater than before
6) Discharge the item
7) Disable UpdateTotalIssuesOnCirc
8) Check out the item you selected again
9) Check the value of 942$0 (you may need to look at the plain MARC view
on the OPAC). That value should not have changed
Bug 6557: add script to update totalissues from stats
NAME
update_totalissues.pl
SYNOPSIS
update_totalissues.pl --use-stats
update_totalissues.pl --use-items
update_totalissues.pl --commit=1000
update_totalissues.pl --since='2012-01-01'
update_totalissues.pl --interval=30d
DESCRIPTION
This batch job populates bibliographic records' total issues count
based on historical issue statistics.
--help Prints this help
-v|--verbose
Provide verbose log information (list every bib modified).
--use-stats
Use the data in the statistics table for populating total
issues.
--use-items
Use items.issues data for populating total issues. Note that
issues data from the items table does not respect the --since
or --interval options, by definition. Also note that if both
--use-stats and --use-items are specified, the count of biblios
processed will be misleading.
-s|--since=DATE
Only process issues recorded in the statistics table since
DATE.
-i|--interval=S
Only process issues recorded in the statistics table in the
last N units of time. The interval should consist of a number
with a one-letter unit suffix. The valid suffixes are h
(hours), d (days), w (weeks), m (months), and y (years). The
default unit is days.
--incremental
Add the number of issues found in the statistics table to the
existing total issues count. Intended so that this script can
be used as a cron job to update popularity information during
low-usage periods. If neither --since or --interval are
specified, incremental mode will default to processing the
last twenty-four hours.
--commit=N
Commit the results to the database after every N records are
processed.
--test Only test the popularity population script.
WARNING
If the time on your database server does not match the time on your Koha
server you will need to take that into account, and probably use the
--since argument instead of the --interval argument for incremental
updating.
=== TESTING PLAN ===
NOTE: in order to test this script, you will need to have some sort of
circulation data already existing in your Koha installation.
1) Disable UpdateTotalIssuesOnCirc
2) Run: misc/cronjobs/update_totalissues.pl --use-items -t -v
3) If you have total checkout data in your item records (i.e. anything
in 952$l), you should see messages like "Processing bib 43 (1 issues)"
4) Choose one of the lines that shows more than 0 issues, and view the
record with that biblionumber in the staff client, choosing the "Items"
tab (moredetail.pl). Add up the "Total checkouts" listed for each item,
and confirm it matches what the script reported
5) Run: misc/cronjobs/update_totalissues.pl --use-stats -t -v
6) If you have any circulation statistics in your database (i.e. any
'issue' entries in your statistics table), you should see messages
like "Processing bib 43 (1 issues)";
7) Choose one of the lines and view the record with that biblionumber in
the staff client, choosing the "Items" tab (moredetail.pl). If you
count the number of checkouts listed in each item's checkout history,
the total should match what the script reported.
8) Check out an item
9) Run: misc/cronjobs/update_totalissues.pl --use-stats
--incremental --interval=1h -t -v
10) You should see one line reporting a single circ for the bib record
associated with the item you just checked out (there may be more if
you checked out any books in the hour prior to running these tests
11) If the results in steps 4, 7, and 10 match the predictions, the
script worked

Tested this with my test data - numbers are correct and updated appropriately.
More importantly - if I do a popularity search, the most popular items *come up first*. Amazing.
There is a flaw in C4::Members::Messaging::GetMessagingPreferences where
the system assumes that every transport will use the same letter. This
is not necessarily true. Even with the default preferences of just
'email' and 'sms', we should be able to have different letters
for each, as one has a maximum character length ( sms ) and one
does not. GetMessagingPreferences currently uses the letter code
of the last result of its query as the letter code for every transport type.
The returned data is a hashref with a key 'transport_types' that is
an array of transport_types this borrower has selected for the given
alert.
This commit modifies GetMessagingPreferences such that the the
'transport_types' array is now a hash where the name of the transport
type is now a key to the value of the letter code set for that transport
type.
It also modifies code calling GetMessagingPreferences where necessary,
and as a side benefit will correctly get the letter codes for email
and sms correctly, if they are defined differently.

This bug is caused by the subroutine C4::Circulation::LostItem
not passing the privacy parameter when calling
C4::Circulation::MarkIssueReturned.
This issue is actually anonymized when the item is marked as lost,
not when the item is checked in.
Note, even if the issue is anonymized, the fine charged for lost
items still contains a description of the lost item, which is
required for the ability to forgive fees for lost items that
are later found.

Before this fix, when attempt to checkin the item at the other branch is made, system disallows checkin. Now (with this fix) the item is checked in and an automatic transfer to the home branch is setup.
How to test:
Case 1
Set independentbranches to "Prevent" and canreservefromotherbranch to "allow". Set up an item in branch A and a member in branch A and another member in branch B.
Checkout the item to member in branch A.
Place a reserve on the item on behalf of member in branch B.
Return the item in branch A. Check if a transfer is setup to branch B.
Checkout the item to the member in branch B and check it back in. Checkin should be allowed and at this point an automatic return to branch A (the home library) should be setup.
Case 2
Set independentbranches to "Prevent" and canreservefromotherbranch to "not allow". In this case item checkin should not be allowed in branch B.
Other cases
Set independentbranches to "Not Prevent". Here items should be returned automatically to home branch, the value in canreservefromotherbranch has no impact.

Grace periods are now measured in the same unit as the loan.
Suspension in days works explicitly in days, independent of unit. Since
the 'deltadays' duration is actually the duration, possibly in hours, between
when the material was due and when it's returned, we need to take the finedays
factor (how many days per unit overdue) and multiple it by 24 if the unit is
hourly.
Example: a 1 hour loan material with 1 hour grace period and finedays = 2,
returned 2 hours late would give 4 days suspension
To test:
1. create some circ rules:
A) an hourly loan rule with suspension in days
B) an hourly loan rule with suspension in days and a grace period
C) a daily loan rule with suspension in days
D) a daily loan rule with suspension in days and a grace period
2. Check out 2 materials under each rule. We'll call these A1-D1
and A2-D2 (to associate with the rule)
3. Return A1-D1 late, but within the grace period for B1 and D1 as appropriate
4. Return A2-D2 late, after the grace periods
You should get:
A1: suspended for (#hours late) * (#suspensionindays) days
B1: not suspended
C1: suspended for (#days late) * (#suspensionindays) days
D1: not suspended
A2: suspended for (#hours late) * (#suspensionindays) days
B2: suspended for (#hours late) * (#suspensionindays) days
C2: suspended for (#days late) * (#suspensionindays) days
D2: suspended for (#days late) * (#suspensionindays) days

Adds support for Floating Collections (i.e. items that don't automatically return
home when checked in at another branch) on a per branchcode/itemtype basis.
This patch adds a new column (returnbranch) to the default_circ_rules, default_branch_item_rules,
default_branch_circ_rules and branch_item_rules tables, after the 'holdsallowed' column. While
this is coded as a varchar(15), the only currently supported values are 'homebranch', 'holdingbranch',
'noreturn' and NULL.
On upgrade, the value of HomeOrHoldingBranchReturn is used to populate the global default (which is
stored in default_circ_rules.returnbranch).
To access this value, use C4::Circulation::GetBranchItemRule. This subroutine is altered to supply
an additional key, "returnbranch", containing this value (or 'homebranch' as a default). No existing
usage of GetBranchItemRule should need to be modified.
The use of HomeOrHoldingBranchReturn is removed in AddReturn to instead use this subroutine. This will
determine, on a more granular level, where the item should be transferred, after all is said and done. If
'noreturn' is specified, then the material will remain at the branch doing the checking in.

I was able to make this feature work as advertised.
As noted above, if you want a floating rule applied across all branches, adding a single default rule won't suffice, you'll need to add the rule to all branches. That issue is not related to the functioning of *this* patch however.

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.

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.

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
