<blockquote>
<p>This fixes an issue when the AutoSwitchPatron system preference is enabled (the issue was caused by bug 35518 - added to Koha 24.05.00, 23.11.03, and 23.05.09).</p>
<p>If you went to check out an item to a patron, and then entered another patron's card number in the item bar code, it was correctly:
- switching to that patron
- showing a message to say that the patron was switched.</p>
<p>However, it was also incorrectly showing a "Barcode not found" message - this is now fixed, and is no longer displayed.</li>
</ul></p>
