Periódicos

Serials actions can be accessed by going to the ‘More’ menu at the top of your screen and choosing ‘Serials’ or by clicking ‘Serials’ on the main Koha staff client page. The Serials module in Koha is used for keeping track of journals, newspapers and other items that come on a regular schedule. As with all modules, make sure you go through the related implementation checklist before using the Serials module.

  • Get there: More > Serials

Manage serial numbering patterns

Everytime you create a new numbering pattern in serials you can save it for later use. These patters are accessible via the ‘Manage numbering patterns’ page.

  • Get there: More > Serials > Manage numbering patterns

Esta página irá listar os padrões de numeração que você salvou anteriormente, bem como alguns padrões pré-definidos.

image740

Note

If you have upgraded from a previous version of Koha you will see ‘Backup patterns’ listed for patterns used in version before Koha 3.14. This is how Koha saved your old numbering patterns. You can edit these to give them more meaningful names from here.

It will also allow you to create a new numbering pattern without first adding a subscription. To add new new pattern click ‘New numbering pattern’ at the top of the list of patterns.

image741

Add a subscription

Subscriptions can be added by clicking the ‘New’ button on any bibliographic record

image742

Or by visiting the Serials module and clicking ‘New subscription’

image743

  • Next you can choose whether a new item is created when receiving an issue (if you barcode issues you’ll want to create an item at this time)

  • In order to determine how to handle irregularities in your subscription answer ‘When there is an irregular issue’, if the numbers are always sequential you’ll want to pick ‘Keep issue number’

    image1277

  • ‘Call number’ is for your item’s call number or call number prefix

Once that data is filled in you can click ‘Next’ to enter the prediction pattern information.
