The biblio & the items are separated.
The bug was that the item was still in the biblio (thus being added twice : as "biblio" and as "item")
thanks to dana for pointing the bug.
* create a authority category called "EDITORS"
* set :
200$a => ISBN
200$b => editor
200$c => (repeatable) collection.
Then enter, for example :
$a 23
$b Hachette Litterature
$c collection1|collection2|collection3
map your "editor" field to plugin 210c, your "collection" field to plugin 225a
Once you arrive on the editor field, if the beginning of the ISBN exists, the editor is automatically found.
Once you arrive on collection field, click on ... you can choose in the collection list.
The 210c / 225a comes from the UNIMARC editor/collection field, but should work as well with MARC21.
* in subscription Add, the issue number & date is used to calculate the 1st issue (previously, a "next issue number & date" was applied, meaning you had to enter the number & date of a previous issue)
* the "inner loop" used for serials number ({XYZ}) is now shown & can be modified. The innerloop is used for numbering formulas saying "change the number once every 4 times".
Serials are in the catalogue, so it's logical to consider them as a sub-module.
Other reason : the menu line is quite long & fits now in a 1025x768 screen, with 12pts default font.
This field is useful when the callnumber contains no information on the room where the item is stored.
With this field, we now have 3 levels of informations to find a book :
* the branch.
* the location.
* the callnumber.
This should be versatile enough to solve any storing method.
This hack is quite simple, due to the nice Biblio.pm API. The MARC => koha db link is automatically managed. Just add the link in the parameters section.
