This patch is the main patch. It adds: - the new template circ/circulation_batch_checkouts.tt - the change into circ/circulation.pl === Why this feature is useful for some libraries? === Currently Koha does not allow to checkout several items at once to a user. This can cause a waste of time when a user want to checkout more than 10 items. This development has been asked to have statistics on in-house use. Every night, a librarian will enter a barcode list (from a file or a scanner : the librarian scans the barcode of the documents that users let on the tables). Barcodes will be added to a statistics patron in order to count the number of items consulted. The development has been expanded to cover another need: some special libraries (BDP for "Bibliotheque departementale de pret": "Loan Regional Library"). These libraries loan items to smaller libraries (municipal). The number of items could be very important and the current way offered by Koha is not adequate. === Test plan === 0/ Apply all patches and execute the DB change entry. 1/ Verify you are abble to do some checkouts (with confirmations, errors). = Statistics way = 2/ Create a statistical patron (e.g. category code STATS). 3/ Update the batch_checkouts pref with the category code (STATS). 4/ Go on the member page and verify the new "Batch check out" tab appears (and only for this user). 5/ Check some items out on the new page using the textarea or a file. 6/ Verify the table contains the item's information and the "Information" column contains "Local use recorded". = Real checkouts = 7/ Create a non statistical patron and update the pref. 8/ Check some items out on the new page using the textarea or a file. 9/ Verify the information in the table is consistent. 10/ Verify item without confirmation needed or impossible alert is checked out. 11/ If the logged in user has the "force_checkout" permission, all checkouts with a "confirmation needed" message can be done. If the logged in user does not have it, there is no way to force the checkout.
