00:29 | steve | Hello |
00:30 | Guest1297 | Does someone know from where Koha gets its barcode renage if autoBarcode is turned on? |
00:30 | I have to use both Koha-assigned barcodes and preprinted labels and want to avoid a collision. | |
00:32 | It looks like that Koha just assignes a bar code that is one higher than the highest number in use. | |
00:35 | Which is an issue because if assign a preprinted label with 1234 to an item, then Koha suggests 1235 on the next item. That label might already be stuck on an other item that hasn't been added yet. | |
00:37 | Is there a way to get Koha to only assign Barcodes within a specific range, i.e. have all Koha-assigned barcode numbers start with 1000000? This would allow 2000000 to be used for preprinted labels. | |
00:44 | davidnind | I don't think so - but you can choose. See the autoBarcode system preference and notes on changing the framework so it is not automatic https://koha-community.org/man[…]rcode#autobarcode |
01:00 | it may be worth asking on the general mailing list about how libraries manage different sets of barcodes | |
01:01 | Guest1297 | Thanks, will do that. |
01:01 | davidnind | for example, you could have autoBarcode enabled, generated in the form 1, 2, 3 (so set as your starting number) |
01:02 | Guest1297 | I think I found a way to do it, but it only works if there aren't any collisions yet |
01:02 | davidnind | but you would then need to remember to overwrite the number if the item being added used a different range |
01:04 | Guest1297 | My idea was to just use the lower range of bar codes for preprinted labels, i.e. have them start with 1000000, then create a single item that starts with 2000000 |
01:05 | Koha seems to always increment the largest value, so it would only create barcodes in the 2000000 range | |
01:05 | davidnind | that sounds like a good work around! |
01:16 | Guest1297 | This method may not work in some existing installations that don't have large 'holes' in the barcodes ranges, although one could always increase the barcode length. |

09:06 | paxed | there's no way to completely delete a branch (and move affected entries to another branch)? |
10:06 | thibaud_glt joined #koha | |
10:25 | cait1 | paxed: no automatism - you need to move things, then you can delete |
