00:51 mtompset Greetings again, #koha. Back at keyboard. :)
00:52 Greetings, CrispyBran tcohen kidclamp cait rangi ashimema
01:02 * kidclamp waves and goes
01:05 StarJammer joined #koha
01:17 alexbuckley joined #koha
01:28 tcohen anyone willing to talk about accounts?
01:28 alexbuckley joined #koha
01:28 tcohen hi alexbuckley
01:31 mtompset tcohen, what do you mean accounts?
01:47 tcohen hi mtompset, I've been fighting the idea that balance should be automatically normalized (i.e. outstanding credits applied to outstanding debits) and I noticed people actually expect that
01:58 alexbuckley joined #koha
02:06 alexbuckley joined #koha
03:06 mtompset Sorry... got distracted, tcohen.
03:06 Hmmm....
03:09 what do you mean by automatically normalized? if we have two recorded credits of v1 and v2 and a recorded debit of v3... the balance is v1+v2-v3 (or the negative, I mess signs up frequently)
03:10 Are you saying don't record the debit of v3, but reduce the credit of v1 and v2 by an appropriate break down of v3?
03:10 so we have charge amount, and outstanding amount, and the outstanding amount represents the applied debits inclusive?
03:12 tcohen what I'm saying is that outstanding credits are expected to be applied to outstanding debits, no matter if they complete the amount outstanding or not
03:12 the question is should this be automatically done
03:14 mtompset well, how will it be stored?
03:15 If we are storing every transaction and type... the application is not done at entry time.
03:15 And we shouldn't do it at entry time... too easy to mess up data. every transaction should be recorded.
03:16 But if you wish to build a report table from it... then it should be applied at build time.
03:17 tcohen hey
03:17 you are mixing stuffs
03:17 every debit/credit added is recorded as an account line
03:17 mtompset then perhaps I am not understanding.
03:17 Yes... account line isn't changing.
03:17 tcohen and every thing that is applied, is logged as an account offset
03:17 mtompset shouldn't change.
03:17 hmm... let me review the schema.
03:18 tcohen no
03:18 dont do it
03:18 if you add two manual credits
03:18 you have two accountlines
03:18 and each accountline creation is also logged as an account offset (of type 'manual_credit' or the like)
03:19 you create a debit, then a third acccount line and an account offset
03:19 then if you apply a credit to pay up (to some extent maybe) the debit
03:19 mtompset Yes, but the problem is account offset gets ugly fast.
03:19 tcohen an offset is recorded
03:19 mtompset if debit > credit 1.
03:19 tcohen well, that's not actually the problem
03:20 mtompset What's the problem?
03:20 wahanui i guess the problem is it has several code issues
03:20 tcohen you can read the tests for Koha::Account::Line->apply
03:20 kmlussier joined #koha
03:20 tcohen and you will see how it actually works :-d
03:20 mtompset just a moment.
03:20 tcohen the problem is
03:20 if you have an outstanding credit for some reason
03:21 and you get charged someting (a new debit)
03:21 do you expect the credit to be applied automatically?
03:21 to reduce the outstanding debit amount?
03:22 mtompset okay... can we make this sign based, rather than credit/debit, because it's confusing in my brain for some reason.
03:22 tcohen owe and pay maybe?
03:22 mtompset credit is good for patron, bad for library -- negative?
03:23 tcohen credit is green, debit is red
03:24 mtompset depends on who if you are the one owing or the one to whom it is owed. ;)
03:24 but let's say owe and pay.
03:24 patron owes (-), patron pays (+)
03:25 so account line is -5, -5, +15... and a -5 comes along?
03:26 I would expect balance = 0
03:26 tcohen right
03:26 mtompset but account offset only would have one entry, right?
03:26 tcohen of course
03:27 no
03:27 you don't understand what account offsets are I think
03:27 but the matter is not about offsets at all
03:27 actually
03:28 I mean, a side effect of applying a credit to a debit is that some offset(s) will be recorded
03:28 mtompset nope, I guess I don't... I don't even understand why we have them.
03:28 tcohen but the important part of it is
03:28 mtompset Right, but the problem is the number of credits and debits don't match.
03:28 tcohen that the (patron's) debt still has an amount outstanding
03:28 even when they have credit on their account
03:28 mtompset so offset as a -5 +15 reference.
03:29 tcohen you need to 'apply the credit to the debt'
03:29 mtompset: why mention offsets again :-D
03:29 mtompset because the +15 needs to get SPLIT.
03:29 tcohen but that's not offsets per-se
03:30 that's applying the credit, to reduce the amount outstanding on the debit line
03:30 no matter if the action is logged in the account_offsets table
03:30 right?
03:30 applying a credit means reducing the amount outstanding on the debit it was applied to
03:31 and reducing the amount outstanding (modulo the sign) of the credit too (i.e. you don't have the credit available for applying anymore)
03:31 mtompset OOOOO! I just noticed that in the account lines.
03:31 someone mixed logic.
03:32 tcohen what
03:32 are
03:32 you
03:32 talking
03:32 about
03:33 mtompset What value is in the amount outstanding column?
03:33 The amount of the transaction left?
03:34 tcohen keep the word 'transaction' out
03:34 mtompset account line.
03:34 so -5, -5, +15, -5
03:34 -5 account line is ao: -5
03:34 tcohen that's 4 account lines
03:34 mtompset -5 account line is ao: -5
03:34 wahanui i already had it that way, mtompset.
03:35 tcohen offsets again…
03:35 mtompset no amount outstanding.
03:35 tcohen let me be the one presenting the example
03:35 mtompset or is it -5, -5 then -5, and both -10?
03:35 okay...
03:35 tcohen you are mixing concepts and it gets messy
03:35 say you get fined
03:36 by a mad librarian
03:36 mtompset (with that many cats, wouldn't they be?)
03:36 tcohen in Koha, the patron representing you
03:36 will have 1 accountline
03:36 with two relevant values
03:37 amount=5 (the fine is 5 canadian dollars)
03:37 and amountoutstanding=5 (you owe the fine in full)
03:37 mtompset so far so good.
03:37 (except for the fines)
03:37 tcohen you notice you have a 2 canadian dollars (coin?)
03:37 in your pocket
03:38 mtompset (gotta love toonies)
03:38 tcohen then you say: I would like to add this two dollars to my account as a credit
03:38 let me finish
03:39 then the librarian adds a manual credit of 2
03:39 that's represented internally as -2, but leave alone data models
03:39 you have 2 on your side
03:39 at that point a new account line was created
03:40 mtompset sure... so, what are the 4 account line values?
03:40 tcohen amount=-2
03:40 amountoutstanding=-2
03:40 so far we only have 2 accountlines, not 4
03:40 1 for the fine, 1 for the manual credit you requested to be added
03:40 mtompset right... but we have 4 values amount and amount outstanding for 2 lines.
03:41 tcohen two accountline
03:41 s
03:41 mtompset so it is 5,5 and -2,-2
03:41 tcohen two account lines
03:41 mtompset (don't understand why, but okay)
03:41 tcohen amount is the original amount of the account line
03:41 mtompset Yes.
03:41 tcohen so
03:42 your account balance
03:42 mtompset hence 5,x and -2,y
03:42 tcohen is the difference between what you owe and the credit you have
03:42 what you owe, you read it on the fine accountline, in the amountoutstanding column
03:42 and likewise for the credit
03:43 lets say you use that 2 dollars credit, to cancel a part of the fine
03:43 then the amount outstanding for the fine, will be set to 3
03:43 and the amount outstanding for the credit will be set to 0
03:43 so, you have no outstanding credit
03:44 and you have an outstanding debt of 3 canadian dollars
03:44 mtompset okay... 5,3 and -2,0 got it.
03:44 tcohen the 'amount' is not that important, it is just tracking the 'original amount'
03:44 mtompset that would be what I expected as soon as the -2 was entered.
03:45 tcohen ok, that's the answer to my question about your opinion
03:45 hehe
03:45 it took a while
03:45 mtompset yes, but sum(amount) should equal sum(amount outstanding)
03:45 tcohen now imagine you have several 'debts'
03:45 you lost a book, a processing fee was charged too, some fine, and then something else
03:46 how do you apply the credit?
03:48 mtompset so (A1,AO1)...(An,AOn) in account lines.... some credits, some debits...
03:48 and then n+1 comes along....
03:50 This application is really better suited to a cronjob. ;)
03:51 find the smallest remaining debit, apply as much of credit as possible.
03:51 If excess, repeat process.
03:52 It doesn't have to apply in order. :)
03:52 tcohen bug https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=21896
03:52 huginn Bug 21896: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, tomascohen, Signed Off , Add Koha::Account::normalize_balance
03:52 tcohen the method is sumple
03:52 simple indeed
03:52 the question is when and how it should be applied
03:52 hehe
03:53 I thought about the cronjob too
03:55 mtompset The other possibility would be triggering it after an accountline is written.
03:58 tcohen yes, I think that's how it should  be implemented
03:59 mtompset I'm looking at your code...
03:59 I'm confused about it.
04:00 your tests make sense. that's not the issue.
04:00 The issue is the normalize function itself.
04:00 what does outstanding_credits return?
04:01 You keep going to ->next.
04:01 But what if the debit didn't fully eliminate the credit?
04:01 tcohen outstanding_credits returns all the accountlines (for the patron) that represent credits, and still have some amount outstanding
04:02 mtompset you would need to call normalize again to actually hopefully normalize it.
04:02 tcohen no
04:03 $credit->apply({ debits => $self->outstanding_debits });
04:03 mtompset You only set outstanding credits once.
04:03 tcohen it is applied to all outstanding debits
04:03 that single credit
04:03 in a single call
04:03 there are two options
04:04 mtompset so the entire debit is used up?
04:04 tcohen it pays all outstanding debits or it doesn't
04:04 it tries to...
04:04 if it pays everything, then when outstanding_debits is 'refreshed'
04:04 mtompset that outstanding debt drops off.
04:04 tcohen the total_outstanding amount will be 0
04:05 then it quits the looop, right
04:05 if it doesn't, it moves to $credits->next
04:05 mtompset let me think of a test case which breaks this...
04:05 because I think one exists.
04:06 tcohen add a followup patch with a regression test then
04:06 mtompset od = (D1..Dn), oc = (C1..Cn)
04:06 credit is C1...
04:07 ahhh....
04:07 od is passed.
04:08 tcohen if the mad librarian adds fees fast enough, it can break it
04:08 he
04:08 but they will need to do it for an infinite time
04:08 to keep the loop running
04:09 mtompset so as much od is used up to cover C1... if all od is used up... it finishes... and the next on credits is irrelevant...
04:09 tcohen and another librarian adding infinite credits
04:09 mtompset if not all od is used up, then c1 must be paid off, so next is okay.
04:09 tcohen is irrelevant, but the while condition (outstanding_debits.total_outstanding > 0) will make it exit
04:09 mtompset I was wrong...
04:10 just had to think it out.
04:10 it's impossible to get back to a remaining balance AND the same credit not paid off.
04:10 tcohen it happens to me, when it is related to signs in the accounts code
04:11 mtompset because you passed ALL the ods.
04:11 tcohen I hate storing negative values, and summing them up in the code
04:11 I prefer to notice the minus sign when reading the code
04:11 i.e. debit - credit
04:11 instead of debit+ credit
04:13 ok, too late
04:13 bedtime
04:13 thanks mtompset
04:14 mtompset BTW, he forgot to put "Signed off" in the footer of the details.
04:15 tcohen he didn't manage to
04:15 hi tried, a couple times
04:15 his devbox was causing him some trouble I think
04:15 if you sign it, you can add his
04:15 :-D
04:16 mtompset I have some other project to get done before bed. No promises. ;)

09:56 matts Hey everyone !
09:58 Did somebody manage to configure Shibboleth on both OPAC and Intranet ?
09:58 Not on Koha's side, but on the SP's side
09:59 Currently, the example provided in the Koha documentation is only about the OPAC

10:24 dersmon hi
10:24 wahanui niihau, dersmon
10:34 ashimema hey matts
10:34 I'm sure we have.. but I tend to leave that to our infrastructure guys these days
10:34 I'll try and dig out an example and update the wiki
10:34 matts ashimema, that would be awesome !
10:36 ashimema yup.. we have three customers running that way and Interleaf has another few (we support Interleaf for their koha hosting)
10:36 * ashimema is digging out stuff for you now
10:37 dersmon quick question: searching "a" takes 1+ minutes for 1.2 million bibliographic records, is that within an expected range (using zebra)?
10:39 8 cores, 8gb ram
10:44 ashimema matts.. I've updated the example Shibboleth2.xml file on the wiki.. it's the 'ApplicationOverride' section that's important
10:44 I'll go and add some detail on the apache side on the linking page now too
10:47 matts ashimema++
10:47 Thank you
10:47 ashimema there's not much there.. but hopefully it's enough to help?
10:47 do shout if you need any more
10:48 matts ashimema, my infrastructure will shout if it's not enough :)
10:48 guy*
10:48 ashimema hehe
10:50 fridolin dersmon: depends a lot on how many results you display ? and do you use facets via Zebra ?
10:50 syspref     FacetMaxCount  will impact a lot
10:51 its mostly not searching that is long but more displaying the results
10:51 kohaputti_ joined #koha
10:51 cait dersmon: make sure you are NOT using zebra facets
10:51 fridolin its in koha-conf.xml
10:51 cait they have a severe performance isssue for bigger collections
10:52 we had to turn them off, it was not good
10:52 yes, it's a setting in koha-conf.xml
10:52 should not require a reindex i think as it should fall back to the old code
10:54 dersmon facet max count is 20
10:54 i see
10:54 i'll try it out :)
10:55 cait maybe restart zebrasrv.. not sure if it's needed
10:55 dersmon are you still using zebra or is switching to elastic search recommended?
10:56 cait you will be using both in parallel atm, so yu can try it and switch back and forth
10:56 but i think most libraries using in production are using it with some additional devs that make their way in now
10:56 18.11 has some more bigger patches/changes
11:02 ashimema: do you have some time to look at bug 21895 by chance?
11:02 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=21895 blocker, P5 - low, ---, julian.maurice, Signed Off , translations fail on upgrade to 18.11.00 (package installation)
11:02 cait it already got a sign off form Mirko
11:07 * ashimema looks
11:10 ashimema looks sane to me.. I'll give it a quick test and then PQA so long as it works

11:30 dersmon <use_zebra_facets>0</use_zebra_facets>, right?
11:31 running sudo koha-zebra --restart <instance name> does not seem to do the trick

13:56 Freddy_Enrique Good morning guys, how are you all? :)
13:56 I want to ask something concerning the z39.50
13:56 I have the following: https://snag.gy/mbI3VP.jpg
13:57 But I can't seem to import any bib record from that database. Any reasons why?
13:58 ashimema I tend to check firewalls when z doesn't work.. sometimes outgoing ports need to be opened
13:59 oleonard Freddy_Enrique: Do you get an error message when you try to search it?
14:02 Freddy_Enrique Just a.. no result window
14:02 https://snag.gy/7mPCEp.jpg
14:02 cait khall: around by chance?
14:03 Freddy_Enrique ashimema: oh... how could I check if an especific port is opened?
14:03 ashimema er
14:03 Freddy_Enrique But the info I put there is ok right?
14:03 oleonard Freddy_Enrique: Is it correct that you are trying to connect to an SRU server, not a Z39.50 server?
14:04 ashimema now that really depends on your OS and Firewall I'm afraid
14:04 SRU is usually on standard HTTP ports so it hopefully isn't an issue
14:04 * ashimema rushes into a meeting
14:05 Freddy_Enrique oleonard: ?
14:05 wait... z39.50 and SRU...

14:20 mostly wondering if it works better than indybranches
14:21 caroline ok so libraries from the group can see the users (for example) from the libraries from the same group but not from other groups?
14:21 cait so those users can only checkout checkin within their group?
14:21 requirement here is 'can use any library'
14:23 lukeG joined #koha
14:28 caroline independentbranches would limit to 1 library, whereas with groups, you would be able to limit to the group (that's my understanding)
14:39 cait hm yeah
14:40 some of the featuers i would want are depending on independentbranches
14:40 like superserials permission (to prevent editing other's subscriptions)
14:40 but i don't want independentbraches... because all patrons can go anywhere
14:40 also editing only your own items depends on indybranches too...
14:45 caroline So you want to limit staff access to other libraries records and users, but patrons can go to any library?
14:46 cait no
14:46 limit everything but patrons :)
14:46 bit i think that won't work
14:46 maybe in acq, acq looks doable too
15:11 why can i search baskets i can#t access... and didn't this used to work?

16:06 * caroline hates configuring labels...
16:09 tuxayo caroline: hi :) Few month ago, we've also got some tricky cases. In the end we weren't sure why  things was working as expected... That's still dark magic to me.
16:10 caroline I can't seem to center the barcode ... https://snag.gy/gqxtuf.jpg
16:13 tuxayo caroline: oh at least you are seeing it, lucky you :P
16:13 caroline hehe! :)
16:14 tuxayo Luckily my colleague wasn't fighting with centering once the barcode finally showed up.
16:18 caroline:  BTW, our discussion about the script to make the replacements for fr_FR => fr_CA was in a perfect timing.
16:18 The next day, we had a customer contacting us because they are working on completing the nl_NL translation. And we have another one working since few month on nl_BE
16:18 So we are trying to make them work together like fr_FR and fr_CA :D
16:18 Have you had the occassion to take the temperature about publishing the script?
16:19 caroline oh no, let me check
16:22 he says it's copied from another script that bernardo sent me
16:23 cait joined #koha
16:23 laurence left #koha
16:23 caroline called po-reuse.pl
16:24 we'll have to get back into it for 18.11 so I'll keep you updated
16:26 ashimema interesting.. I'd be interested in such a script too
16:26 for en => en_GB
16:28 tuxayo caroline: great! thanks :)  Was it in the release tools? Or in the main repo?
16:29 caroline getting bug 17015 to pass qa would make a great bribe for him ;)
16:29 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=17015 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, charles.farmer, Needs Signoff , New Koha Calendar
16:29 caroline tuxayo: no idea, he sent it to me by email
16:29 do you want me to forward it?
16:31 tuxayo caroline: yay! Maybe sent it in the koha-translate mailing list?
16:31 caroline I'm talking about the po-reuse script from bernardo, not the fr-FR to fr-CA script
16:32 tuxayo caroline: I though it was the same thing.
16:32 caroline the latter is adapted from the former
16:33 po-reuse fills the untranslated string with translated strings from another file
16:33 tuxayo ashimema: The english locales could maybe cheat: only translate on Pootle strings that uses word that should be diffrent from en_US. Then the visual result will be the same. As Koha fallsback to en_US when translation is missing.
16:33 Or maybe it's more tedious actually
16:34 caroline so if fr-FR is at 100% and fr-CA at 80%, we can copy the fr-FR strings into the missing 20%, but it doesn't change the words
16:34 so we have some very french sounding words ;)
16:36 ashimema interesting
16:39 oleonard about?
16:39 do we use bootstrap tooltips in the staff client anywhere?
16:42 caroline almost there, but now I'm missing words ... T_T https://snag.gy/ZszoPd.jpg
16:45 tuxayo caroline: So it allows you to get the missing strings from fr_FR without overwriting the strings that you already have (thus preserving the fr_CA specificities). So you have to search from fr_FR specific words and replace them right?
16:46 caroline tuxayo: yes exactly
16:49 Victory! I'm gonna cry https://snag.gy/skxTY0.jpg
16:58 cait looks nice!

17:16 tuxayo caroline: congrats! :D
17:22 What are the differences between po-reuse and your fr-FR to fr-CA script ?
17:24 caroline tuxayo: I don't know the specifics, since I'm not the one who coded it, but I submitted a list of terms to be replaced. So instead of copying fr-FR strings into fr-CA unstranslated strings, it copies while replacing France-specific terms with Quebec/Canada-specific ones
17:24 tuxayo caroline: this is great :)
17:25 caroline what is long and tedious is going through the translations to find the terms to be changed
17:26 and also dealing with articles
17:26 I don't know if NL would have that problem
17:27 tuxayo caroline: «find the terms to be changed» I don't get it, do you have examples?
17:27 «dealing with articles» like word gender change between fr_FR and fr_CA?

17:30 caroline tuxayo: at first I thought it would be only some library science terms that would be changed (like désherbage vs élagage), but while looking at the po files, I noticed a lot of words are not used here (like contrôler which means verify in fr-FR but here it means to control)

17:34 tuxayo :O

21:19 CrispyBran See ^^
21:20 Any idea why "Value" is processed as NULL?  If I hard code a value, it works.
21:24 caroline CrispyBran: what is this looking for? I'm trying it in my system, but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to put in as value
21:28 CrispyBran It is part of a weeding report I am trying to update.  This piece finds all old issues that have circed between two dates that were not added after a certain date.  The value is the threshold for the number of circs in that time period.  So if I only want to see the items that circed 2 times or less, I would enter 2.
21:31 cait and you left it empty?
21:39 CrispyBran no.  I am leaving the call number empty.
21:41 That is why.  :/  Okay.
21:49 cait I've seen that they sometimes execute, but we had reports about them not downloading then

22:54 espen_ Need some troubleshooting help here. Just updated a koha system to 18.05 then 18.11 and have been left with an issue where issuing has stopped working with a "No circulation rule is defined for this user and itemtype combination."
22:55 I can't see what could have changed and looking at the circulation rules I can't see anything amiss
22:57 User is in a Category which has a defined set of rules, item is a Book. Baffled!
22:58 There is also a rule for "All" for "Books"
22:58 caroline does it work for other patron category/item type combinations? (ie are all loans blocked, or just that combination?)
23:00 espen_ As far as I can tell it doesn't work for any combination. It's a pretty basic setup. Users are "All" or "College Member" and items are "Books" or "DVDs"
23:02 caroline Maybe it doesn't have anything to do with the rules then and the message is misleading...
23:02 espen_ Please confirm issue
23:02 This user can't check out this item per library circulation policy.
23:02 No circulation rule is defined for this user and itemtype combination.
23:03 Message, in the staff interface is: "Please Confirm Issue/This user can't check out this item per library circulation policy./No circulation rule is defined for this user and itemtype combination."
23:04 With an option to Confirm "Y/N"
23:04 patrons can't self-issue on the terminals.
23:05 caroline hmm... did they add a new section to the rules maybe? Like you have to have a default checkout rule (under the circulation rules table) or something?
23:07 espen_ In testing this I've just discovered a secondary problem returning an item: he item has not been returned due to a configuration issue in your system.
23:07 "Some of your tables have problems with their auto_increment values which may lead to data loss."
23:09 Err...
23:11 caroline there's a wiki page for that
23:11 It's a know issue since 18.05
23:12 I think this is the page : https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]uto_increment_fix
23:14 espen_ Not entirely clear what the fix is (yet)!
23:15 caroline I don't understand it either... Sorry!
23:16 I just delete my old_issues, but then, i'm not working in a production environment
23:16 espen_ Ok. That's probably worth a try.
23:17 We're 'production' but it's a small members only library so we can tolerate hiccups in issuing
23:18 My other alternative is to roll back
23:18 then i just want to make sure we don't lose any cataloging as that represents real hours of work
23:20 I'll have a go at deleting the old_issue
23:21 caroline you have a backup?
23:22 espen_ yes. Not convinced this has anything to do with the circulation bug we're seeing but should definitely be eliminated from the pool of suspects!
23:23 I'll be back for further ideas if it doesn't make a difference!
