    • Bu alan kullanıcı kategorinizi kaydetmek için gereklidir. Boş bırakılırsa bir hata ile karşılaşırsınız.

Uyarı

You cannot enter both a month limit and a date until for one category. Choose to enter either one or the other.

  • Password expiration: enter the number of days after which a patron has to change their password.

  • Age required: minimum age (in years) requirement associated with the category. For example, an ‘Adult’ patron category could have a minimum age of 18 years; this means patrons must be at least 18 to be in the patron category.

    • When creating or updating a patron, a warning will appear if the patron is too young for this category.

      Warning 'The following fields are wrong. Please fix them. Patron's age is incorrect for their category. Ages allowed are 5-17.'

    • This value is used by the update_patrons_category.pl cron job to change the category of patrons who are too young.

  • Upper age limit: maximum age (in years) associated with the category. For example, a ‘Children’ patron category could have an upper age limit of 18, meaning patrons can have children cards until they turn 18.

    • When creating or updating a patron, a warning will appear if the patron is too old for this category.

      Warning 'The following fields are wrong. Please fix them. Patron's age is incorrect for their category. Ages allowed are 5-17.'

Not

Depending on your value for the FeeOnChangePatronCategory system preference, this fee will be charged on patron renewal as well as when they are first enrolled.

  • Overdue notice required: choose ‘Yes’ if you want patrons from this category to receive overdue notices. This will enable you to set the overdue notice triggers in the Tools module.

  • Lost items in staff interface: decide on a patron category basis if lost items are shown in the staff interface.

    • Shown: lost items are shown in the staff interface.

    • Hidden by default: lost items are hidden, but staff members can click ‘Show all items’ to see them.

This is only applicable in the staff interface, so changing this value on patron categories who do not have access to the staff interface won’t make any difference.

  • Hold fee: enter the fee amount if you charge patrons from this category a fee for placing holds on items.

Uyarı

Only enter numbers and decimals in this field.

  • Category type: choose one of the six main parent categories

  • Branch limitations: if necessary, limit this patron category to only some branches in your library system. Select ‘All branches’ if you would like any library to be able to use this category.

    • To select more than one branch, hold the Ctrl key while making your selection.

  • Password reset in OPAC: decide whether patrons of this category are allowed to reset their password through the OPAC’s ‘Forgotten password’ function. By default, it will follow the rule set in the OpacResetPassword system preference.

    • Follow system preference OpacResetPassword.

    • Allowed: patrons of this category will be able to reset their password through the OPAC regardless of the setting in OpacResetPassword.

    • Not allowed: patrons of this category will not be able to reset their password through the OPAC regardless of the setting in OpacResetPassword.

  • Password change in OPAC: decide whether patrons of this category are allowed to change their password through the OPAC. By default, it will follow the rule set in the OpacPasswordChange system preference.

    • Follow system preference OpacPasswordChange.

    • Allowed: patrons of this category will be able to change their password through the OPAC regardless of the setting in OpacPasswordChange.

    • Not allowed: patrons of this category will be not able to change their password through the OPAC regardless of the setting in OpacPasswordChange.

  • Minimum password length: enter the minimum password length for patrons of this category. Leave blank to use the default length set in the minPasswordLength system preference.

  • Require strong password: decide whether to enforce a strong password policy (at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter and one digit) for patrons of this category. By default, it will follow the rule set in the RequireStrongPassword system preference.

  • Block expired patrons: decide if this patrons from this category are blocked from performing actions in the OPAC if their card is expired. By default it will follow the rule set in the BlockExpiredPatronOpacActions preference.

    • Follow the system preference BlockExpiredPatronOpacActions.

    • Block: patrons of this category whose membership has expired will be blocked from renewing and placing holds in the OPAC, regardless of the setting in BlockExpiredPatronOpacActions.

    • Don’t block: patrons of this category whose membership has expired will not be blocked from renewing and placing holds in the OPAC, regardless of the setting in BlockExpiredPatronOpacActions.

  • Check for previous checkouts: if the CheckPrevCheckout system preference is set to either ‘Unless overridden by patron category’ options, you will be able to set the value for this particular patron category here.

    • Yes and try to override system preferences: Koha will check if the patron already checked out this item, unless the patron’s personal settings prevent it.

    • No and try to override system preferences: Koha will not check in the patron already checked out this item, unless the patron’s personal settings permit it.

    • Inherit from system preferences: the setting of the CheckPrevCheckout system preference will be followed.

  • Default privacy: choose the default privacy settings for patrons of this category.

    • Default: checkout history will be kept indefinitely, until either the batch_anonymize.pl script is run or there is a manual batch anonymization which is performed.

    • Never: checkout history is anonymized upon return. Statistics are kept, but the link between the checkout, the item and the patron is removed.

    • Forever: checkout history is never anonymized for patrons of this category, regardless of the cron job or manual anonymization.

    • This setting can be edited by the patron via the OPAC if you allow it with the OPACPrivacy system preference.

  • Exclude from local holds priority: choose whether holds for patrons of this category are given a priority.

    • Yes: holds for patrons of this category are not given special priority, regardless of the setting in LocalHoldsPriority.

    • No: holds for patrons of this category are subjected to the setting in LocalHoldsPriority.

  • Default messaging preferences for this patron category: assign advanced messaging preferences by default to the patron category

    • These default preferences can be changed on an individual basis for each patron. This setting is just a default to make it easier to set up messages when creating new patrons.

    Not

    This requires that you have EnhancedMessagingPreferences system preference set to ‘Allow’.

    Uyarı

    These defaults will only be applied to new patrons that are added to the system. They will not edit the preferences of the existing patrons.

    If you need to apply the default preferences to existing patrons, you can force those changes by running the borrowers-force-messaging-defaults script found in the misc/maintenance folder. Ask your system administrator for assistance with this script.

Circulation and fines rules

These rules define how your items are circulated, how and when fines are calculated and how holds are handled.

  • Get there: More > Administration > Patrons and circulation > Circulation and fines rules

Kurallar şu sırayı kullanarak en özelden daha az özele doğru uygulanır:

  • same library, same patron category, same item type

  • same library, same patron category, all item types

  • same library, all patron categories, same item type

  • same library, all patron categories, all item types

  • default (all libraries), same patron category, same item type

  • default (all libraries), same patron category, all item types

  • default (all libraries), all patron categories, same item type

  • default (all libraries), all patron categories, all item types

The CircControl and HomeOrHoldingBranch also come in to play when figuring out which circulation rule to follow.

  • If CircControl is set to “the library you are logged in at” circulation rules will be selected based on the library you are logged in at

  • If CircControl is set to “the library the patron is from” circulation rules will be selected based on the patron’s library

  • If CircControl is set to “the library the item is from” circulation rules will be selected based on the item’s library where HomeOrHoldingBranch chooses if the item’s home library or its holding library is used.

  • If IndependentBranches is set to ‘Prevent’ then the value of HomeOrHoldingBranch is used in figuring out if the item can be checked out. If the item’s home library does not match the logged in library, the item cannot be checked out unless you are a superlibrarian.

    Önemli

    At the very least you will need to set a default circulation rule. This rule should be set for all item types, all libraries and all patron categories. That will catch all instances that do not match a specific rule. When checking out if you do not have a rule for all libraries, all item types and all patron categories then you may see patrons getting blocked from placing holds.

Defining circulation rules

Using the issuing rules matrix you can define rules that depend on patron category/item type combos.

Not

The matrix being very wide, you can export the existing rules in Microsoft Excel or CSV format, to look at them, using the ‘Export’ button at the top of the table.

To set your rules, choose a library from the pull down (or ‘Standard rules for all libraries’ if you want to apply these rules to all branches):

'Select a library' drop down menu

Matristen, kullanıcı kategorilerinden ve materyal türlerinden her hangi bir kombinasyonu kuralları uygulamak için seçebilirsiniz.

Circulation rules table

  • Öncelikle kuralı hangi kullanıcı kategorisine uygulamak istediğinizi seçin. Bunu ‘Hepsi’ şeklinde bırakırsanız, bu kural tüm kullanıcı kategorilerine uygulanacaktır.

  • Choose the item type you would like this rule to apply to. If you leave this to ‘All’ it will apply to all item types for this patron category

    • If an item type has a parent item type, the rule will be displayed as Parent -> Child. The number of current checkouts will be limited to either the maximum for the parent (including sibling types) or the specific type’s rule, whichever is less.

      Circulation rules table with a rule for DVDs for which the maximum is 5 checkouts and a rule for Blu-ray (child of DVD) for which the maximum is 2 checkouts

      In the example above, there is a rule for the DVD item type with a maximum of 5 checkouts and a rule for Blu-ray, a child of DVD, with a maximum of 2 checkouts. A patron at this library will be able to check out a maximum of 2 Blu-rays in a total of 5 items of either DVD or Blu-ray types.

      To summarize, a patron at this library would be able to take either : - 0 Blu-ray and a maximum of 5 DVDs - 1 Blu-ray and a maximum of 4 DVDs - 2 Blu-ray and a maximum of 3 DVDs

  • Add notes about your circulation rule into the notes field. This can be helpful to remember why and when something was last changed.

  • Limit the number of items of this type a patron of this category can have checked out at the same time by entering a number in the ‘Current checkouts allowed’ field.

  • If you’re allowing on-site checkouts then you may also want to set a limit on the number of items of this type patrons of this category can have on-site.

  • Define the period of time an item of this type can be checked out to a patron of this category by entering the number of units (days or hours) in the ‘Loan period’ box.

  • Define if the loan period should include closed days or not in the ‘Days mode’ column. The option chosen here will override the useDaysMode system preference for this particular rule.

    • The ‘Default’ option will take the option defined in the useDaysMode system preference

    • Choose the ‘Calendar’ option if you want to use the calendar to skip the days when the library is closed

    • Choose the ‘Datedue’ option if you want to push the due date to the next open day

    • Choose the ‘Days’ option if you want to ignore the calendar and calculate the due date directly

    • Choose the ‘Dayweek’ option if you want to use the calendar to push the due date to the next open matching weekday for weekly loan periods, or the next open day otherwise

  • Choose which unit of time, days or hours, that the loan period and fines will be calculated in in the ‘Unit’ column

  • You can also define a hard due date for a specific patron category and item type. The hard due date offers three options:

    • Exactly on: The due date of any item checked out with this rule will be set to the hard due date.

    • Before: Koha will calculate the normal loan period. If the calculated due date would be after or on the hard due date, the hard due date will be used instead.

    • After: Koha will calculate the normal loan period. If the calculated due date would be before the hard due date, the hard due date will be used instead.

  • ‘Fine amount’ should have the amount you would like to charge for overdue items.

    Önemli

    Sadece sayılar ve ondalık ayırıcıları girin (para birimi simgeleri girmeyin).

  • Enter the ‘Fine charging interval’ in the unit you set (ex. charge fines every 1 day, or every 2 hours). The finesCalendar system preference controls whether the days the library is closed will be taken into account or not.

  • ‘Tahsil etme zamanı’ ceza tahsil etme aralığı 1 günden fazla olan kütüphaneler için çok kullanışlıdır.

    • End of interval: Given a grace period of 2 days and a fine interval of 7 days, the first fine will appear 7 days after the due date, it will always take one fine interval (7 days), before the first fine is charged.

    • Start of interval: Given a grace period of 2 days and a fine interval of 7 days, the first fine will appear 2 days after the due date and the second fine 7 days after the due date.

  • The ‘Fine grace period’ is the period of time an item can be overdue before you start charging fines. The FinesIncludeGracePeriod system preference controls if the grace period will be included when calculating the fine or not.

    Önemli

    This can only be set for the ‘Day’ unit, not in ‘Hours’

  • The ‘Overdue fines cap’ is the maximum fine per item for this patron and item type combination.

    Önemli

    If this field is left blank then Koha will not put a limit on the fines this item will accrue. A maximum fine amount for all overdues can be set using the MaxFine system preference.

  • Kullanıcıların kayıp materyaller üzerinden fazla ücretlendirilmesini önlemek isterseniz, ‘Yenileme fiyatı üst sınırı’ başlığının altındaki kutuyu işaretleyebilirsiniz. Bu, kullanıcıların para cezalarının materyal üzerindeki yenileme fiyatının üzerine çıkmasını önleyecektir.

    Not

    ‘Gecikme cezaları sınırı’ da ayarlanırsa para cezası, eğer her ikisi de verilen gecikme zamanı için geçerliyse, ikisinden de daha az olacaktır.

  • If your library ‘fines’ patrons by suspending their account you can enter the number of days their fine should be suspended in the ‘Suspension in days’ field.

    Önemli

    This can only be set for the ‘Day’ unit, not in ‘Hours’

  • Aynı zamanda ‘Maksimum suspansiyon süresi’ ayarında bir kullanıcının askıya alınacağı maksimum gün sayısını tanımlayabilirsiniz

  • The ‘Suspension charging interval’ option is just like the ‘Fin charging interval’. For example, you could ‘fine’ a patron one day suspension for every two days overdue.

  • Next decide if the patron can renew this item type and if so, enter how many times they can renew it in the ‘Renewals allowed’ box.

  • If you allow unseen renewals (see UnseenRenewals), enter how many ‘unseen’ renewals patrons can make. This is not in addition to the regular renewals, but rather how many ‘unseen’ renewals can be made among the total number of renewals.

  • If you’re allowing renewals you can control how long the renewal loan period will be (in the units you have chosen) in the ‘Renewal period’ box.

  • Süre uzatmaya izin veriyorsanız, kullanıcıların iade tarihinden kaç gün önce ödünç aldıkları materyallerin süresini uzatabileceklerini ‘No renewals before’ kutusundan denetleyebilirsiniz.

    • Bu değer boş bırakılırsa materyallerin süresi istenilen her hangi bir zaman uzatılabilir. Aksi halde materyallerin süresi yalnızca materyal bu kutuya girdiğiniz sayı birimleri (gün/saat) sonrası gecikmeye kalırsa uzatılabilir.

    • To control this value on a more granular level please set the NoRenewalBeforePrecision preference.

  • You can enable automatic renewals for certain items/patrons if you’d like. This will renew automatically following your circulation rules unless there is a hold on the item.

    Önemli

    You will need to enable the automatic renewal cron job for this to work.

    Önemli

    This feature needs to have the “no renewal before” column filled in or it will auto renew every day after the due date.

  • If you are using automatic renewals, you can use the ‘No automatic renewals after’ to limit the time a patron can have the item. For example: don’t allow automatic renewals after a checkout period of 80 days.

  • Similar to the hard due date setting, you can also stop automatic renewals after a specific date using the ‘No automatic renewal after (hard limit)’ setting.

  • If patrons of this category can place holds on items of this type, enter the total numbers of items (of this type) that can be put on hold in the ‘Holds allowed’ field.

    • Leave empty to have unlimited holds.

    • If you’d rather put a hold limit per patron category, independent of the item type, see the default checkout and hold policy by patron category section below.

    • If you want to have a hard hold limit, independent of patron category and item type, for this particular library, see the Default checkout, hold, and return policy section below.

    • If you want to have a hard hold limit, independent of patron category, item type, and across all libraries, see the maxreserves system preference.

  • You can also set a daily limit on the number of holds a patron can place.

  • While the two settings before limit the holds that can be placed across various records, the next setting is used to limit the number of holds that can be placed on one record at the same time. For example, for fiction books you might want to allow only one item to be placed on hold at the same time by the same user. But for serials where items represent different issues more than one hold at the same time is fine.

    Not

    If this is set to a number that is greater than 1, but not Unlimited, then staff will have the option of placing multiple holds at once when placing a hold on the next available item in the staff interface

  • Next you can decide how the availability of items influences the ability to place a hold. The ‘On shelf holds allowed’ option has three settings:

    • Yes: This will allow to place holds on items at all times. It doesn’t matter if they are available or checked out.

    • If any unavailable: This will allow to place a hold as soon as one or more items of the record are checked out. It doesn’t matter if there are still one or more items available on the shelf.

    • If all unavailable: This will allow to place a hold as soon as all items on the record are checked out that could fill the hold. This is especially useful for libraries that don’t offer the service of getting items placed on hold off the shelf for patrons.

  • Under ‘OPAC item level hold’ you can decide if patrons are allowed to place item specific holds on the item type in question. The options are:

    • Allow: Will allow patrons the option to choose next available or a specific item.

    • Don’t allow: Will only allow patrons to choose next available item.

    • Force: Will only allow patrons to choose a specific item.

  • If you want to allow patrons of this category to be able to place article requests on items of this type, choose an option in the ‘Article requests’ column

    • No: patrons of this category will not be able to place article requests on items of this type

    • Yes: patrons of this category will be able to place article requests on items of this type, either on specific items (for example in the case of serial issues) or on entire records (for example in the case of monographs)

    • Record only: patrons of this category will be able to place article requests on records of this type, but not on specific items

    • Item only: patrons of this category will be able to place article requests on items of this type, but not on entire records

    Uyarı

    This column will only appear if the ArticleRequests system preference is enabled.

    If you want to use the article request functionality you need to enable it using the ArticleRequests system preference and configure the form using the other related preferences.

  • If you charge a rental fee for the item type and want to give this specific patron category a discount on that fee, enter the percentage discount (without the % symbol) in the ‘Rental discount’ field

Not

If, while editing a rule, you change either the patron category or the item type, it will create a new rule. You can do this to duplicate rules instead of creating new ones if the values are similar.

Alternatively, you can create a rule with the same patron category and item type and it will edit the existing one, as there can only be one rule per library- patron category-item type combination.

If you would like to delete your rule, click the ‘Delete’ button at the beginning or at the end of the rule row.

To save time you can clone rules from one library to another by choosing the clone option above the rules matrix. Please note that this will overwrite all rules already configured for that library.

Default checkout and hold policy by patron category

For this library, you can specify the maximum number of checkouts, on-site checkouts and holds that a patron of a given category can have, regardless of the item type.

image162

Not

If the total amount of checkouts, on-site checkout and holds for a given patron category is left blank, no limit applies, except possibly for a limit you define in the circulation rules above.

Örneğin, matris içinde yönetim kurulundaki kullanıcıların 10 kitap ve 5 DVD alabilmelerine izin veren bir kural var, ancak siz yönetim kurulundaki kullanıcıların bir defada sadece 12 materyal ödünç almalarının mümkün olmasını istiyorsunuz. Buraya 12 girerseniz ve kullanıcının üzerinde zaten 10 tane kitap varsa, izin verilen 12 toplamına eşit olarak yalnızca 2 adet DVD ödünç almalarına izin verilecektir.

Default waiting hold cancellation policy

For this library, you can specify if patrons can cancel holds that are already awaiting pickup.

Default waiting hold cancellation policy form in the circulation and fines rules page

For each patron category and item type combination, choose if these patrons can cancel holds that are already waiting for pickup.

Just like the circulation rules, the more specific rules will apply before the more generic rules (i.e. the “all” patron categories / “all” item types rule will apply only if no other rule exists for this combination).

Default open article requests limit

If ArticleRequests is enabled, you can set a maximum number of open article requests a patron of a category can have at one time.

This will only appear if the ArticleRequests system preference is enabled.

  • Choose the patron category for which you want to add a fee, or choose ‘All’ to set an overall fee for all patrons

    Not

    The fee specific to a patron category will supercede the fee for all categories.

    For example, if you set a fee for all categories to 2$ and a fee for Faculty to 3$, Faculty members will be charged 3$ and any other patron will be charged 2$.

  • Enter the fee amount (use a period as the decimal and don’t enter any symbols, e.g. enter 5.00 for 5$)

  • Click ‘Add’

The fee is charged to the patron when the request is placed.

When placing the request, either through the staff interface or the OPAC, a message appears to inform the staff member or the patron that the patron will be charged for every request and the amount of the fee.

  • Refund lost item replacement fee: choose whether or not the item’s replacement cost is refunded when the lost item is returned.

    • Refund lost item charge: the replacement cost is refunded. This might create a credit to be paid out to the patron if they had already paid the fee.

    • Refund lost item charge (only if unpaid): the replacement cost is refunded only if it hasn’t yet been paid.

    • Refund lost item charge and charge new overdue fine: the replacement cost is refunded and overdue fines are calculated as of today.

    • Refund lost item charge and restore overdue fine: the replacement cost is refunded and fines are restored as of the day the item was declared lost.

    • Leave lost item charge: the replacement cost stays in the patron’s account.

  • Refund lost item processing fee: choose whether or not the item’s processing fee is refunded when the lost item is returned.

    • Refund lost item processing charge: the processing fee is refunded. This might create a credit to be paid out to the patron if they had already paid the fee.

    • Refund lost item processing charge (only if unpaid): the processing fee is refunded only if it hasn’t yet been paid.

    • Leave lost item processing charge: the processing fee stays in the patron’s account.

You can limit the number of days during which a lost item is refundable using the NoRefundOnLostReturnedItemsAge system preference.

Default holds policy by item type

Bu kütüphane için, belirli bir materyal türü için kullanıcı kategorisi ne olursa olsun ayırma ve iade politikalarını düzenleyebilirsiniz.

Default holds policy by item type section of the circulation rules

The various hold policies have the following effects:

  • From any library: Patrons from any library may put this item on hold. (default if none is defined)

  • From home library: Only patrons from the item’s home library may put this book on hold.

  • No holds allowed: No patron may put this book on hold.

    Önemli

    Note that if the system preference AllowHoldPolicyOverride set to ‘allow’, these policies can be overridden by your circulation staff.

    Önemli

    These policies are applied based on the ReservesControlBranch system preference.

Control where patron can pick up holds using the “Hold Pickup Library Match” menu

  • herhangi bir kütüphane

  • item’s hold group

  • patron’ hold group

  • materyalin ana kütüphanesi

The various return policies have the following effects:

  • Materyal ana kütüphaneye dönecek: Kütüphanecinin materyali ait olduğu ana kütüphaneye transfer etmesi istenecektir

    • Önemli

      If the AutomaticItemReturn preference is set to automatically transfer the items home, then a prompt will not appear

  • Materyal ödünç verildiği birime dönecek: Kütüphanecinin materyali ödünç verildiği kütüphaneye transfer etmesi istenecektir

    • Önemli

  • Item floats: Materyal ödünç verildiği birimden transfer edilmeyecek, bunun yerine manuel olarak transfer edilene ya da başka bir birimde ödünç verilene kadar orada kalacaktır.

Örneğin kütüphanelerinizde ayırtma işlemi yapılmasına izin veriyorsunuz fakat yeni materyallere veya DVD’lere diğer alt gruplar tarafından ayırtma yapılmasını istemiyorsunuz, bu sebeple ‘Ayırtma Politikası’nı ‘Ana kütüphaneden’ olarak ayarlayabilirsiniz ve böylece bu materyaller üzerinde sadece ‘kütüphane ve kullanıcının ana kütüphanesi aynı’ ise ayırtma yapılabilir. Ayrıca bu formdan belirli materyaller üzerinde ayırtma yapılmasını tamamen engelleyebilirsiniz. Aynı zamanda floating materyal türlerini ve ana kütüphaneleri ile kalan türleri bu şekilde ayarlayabilirsiniz.

Not

The library whose return policy is used is determined by the CircControlReturnsBranch system preference.

  • Authorized value category: if one is selected, the patron record input page will only allow values to be chosen from the authorized value list.

    Uyarı

    An authorized value list is not enforced during batch patron import.

  • Library limitations: if you would like this attribute to only be used by specific branches you can choose those branches from this list. Choose ‘All branches’ to show it for all libraries.

    Uyarı

    Patrons with attributes already set for them will not be altered. The branch limitation only limits the field based on the library at which the current staff is logged in.

    If an attribute is set for a patron, it will be displayed in their file to all staff. However, only staff from the selected branches will be able to edit it.

  • Category: if you’d like to only show this attribute on patrons of one type choose that patron category here

  • Class: if you have a lot of attributes it might be handy to group them so that you can easily find them for editing. If you create an authorized value for PA_CLASS it will show in the ‘Class’ drop-down menu and you can then change your attributes page to have sections of attributes

Check the boxes for the libraries you allow your items to be transferred to for the collection code you have selected at the top (in the example below - FIC)

image174

In the above example, Centerville library will allow patrons from all libraries except Liberty and Franklin to request items from their branch.

Ulaştırma maliyet matrisi

The transport cost matrix lets a library system define relative costs to transport books to one another. In order for the system to use this matrix you must first set the UseTransportCostMatrix preference to ‘Use’.

Önemli

The transport cost matrix takes precedence in controlling where holds are filled from, if the matrix is not used then Koha checks the StaticHoldsQueueWeight.

Tutarlar, isteğe göre maksimum değer (örneğin 1 ya da 100) ile minimum tutar olan 0 arasında olan ondalık değerlerdir. Örneğin, bunların aktarma tutarı tam olarak karşılık gelirse, her bir kütüphane arasındaki uzaklığı mil cinsinden ‘tutarınız’ olarak kullanabilirsiniz. Belki de postaneler daha iyi bir ölçü olacaktır. Postaneyi paylaşan kütüphaneler 1 tutarları olacaktır, yakın postanelerin 2 tutarları olacaktır, vs.

Kargo bedellerini girmek için, değiştirmek istediğiniz birime tıklayınız, ‘Devre dışı bırak’ kutusunun onayını kaldırınız ve ‘fiyatınızı’ giriniz.

image175

Maliyetlerinizi girdikten sonra klavyenizdeki ‘Enter’ tuşuna basın veya değişikliklerinizi kaydetmek için matris altındaki ‘Kaydet’ düğmesini tıklayın.

Not

Bir NULL değer, From ve To kütüphaneleri aynı kütüphanede olduğunda bir fark meydana getirmez. Bununla birlikte en iyi uygulama olarak oraya bir 0 koymalısınız. Diğer tüm To/From kombinasyonları için NULL değeri bu ilişkinin devre dışı bırakılmış gibi hareket etmesine neden olur. Yani özetle, herhangi bir değeri boş bırakmayın. Her zaman bir numara koymak en iyisidir (To/From seçeneğini devre dışı bırakmayı seçmiş olsanız bile).

Item circulation alerts

Kütüphaneler kullanıcıları dolaşım olayları hakkında otomatik olarak bilgilendirmek isterlerse karar verebilirler. (iadeler ve ödünçler).

  • Once your framework appears on the screen you can edit or delete each field by following the instructions for editing fields and subfields

Editing existing frameworks

Clicking ‘Actions’ and then ‘Edit’ to the right of a framework will only allow you to edit the description for the framework.

Form to edit the description of the framework

Editing framework fields and subfields

Frameworks are made up of MARC fields (tags) and subfields. To make edits to the fields and subfields associated with the framework you must click on ‘Actions’ and then ‘MARC structure’.

Önemli

Whenever you make changes to the framework fields and subfields, make sure to run the MARC bibliographic framework test.

Editing a MARC field (tag)

After clicking on ‘MARC structure’ you will be taken to a screen listing all the available tags for that framework and you can search for the tag you need. To make edits to a MARC field click on ‘Actions’ on the right of the field and choose ‘Edit tag’.

Form to edit a MARC field

The next screen shows details of the tag.

  • Tag: the MARC tag, or field number, is uneditable.

  • Label for lib: text that will show in the staff interface MARC view, and in the basic editor if the advancedMARCeditor system preference is set to display labels.

    Not

    If you use XSLT (see the XSLTDetailsDisplay system preference), the labels for the ‘Normal’ view are defined in the XSLT stylesheet.

    This will not affect the ‘Normal’ view unless you don’t use XSLT.

  • Label for OPAC: text that will show on the MARC view in the OPAC.

    Not

    If you use XSLT (see the OPACXSLTDetailsDisplay system preference), the labels for the ‘Normal’ view are defined in the XSLT stylesheet.

    This will not affect the ‘Normal’ view unless you don’t use XSLT.

  • Repeatable: when checked, the field will have an icon next to it in the basic editor, allowing you to add multiples of that tag.

  • Mandatory: when checked, the record cannot be saved unless the field has a value. In the basic editor, a ‘Required’ flag will display as a prompt.

  • Important: when checked, the field will generate a warning if it is not filled, but unlike ‘Mandatory’, you will still be able to save your record nonetheless. In the basic editor, an ‘Important’ flag will display as a prompt.

  • Indicator default values: add default values for indicators here so that they will be pre-filled to save time when cataloging, but can still be edited if required.

  • Authorized value: define an authorized value pull down list for the catalogers

    Uyarı

    The authorized value option at field level does not work.

Click ‘Save changes’ to save any modification.

Editing a MARC subfield

To edit the subfields associated with the tag, click ‘Actions’ then ‘Edit subfields’ to the right of the tag on the framework field list. Each subfield has its own tab which contains three sections - Basic constraints, Advanced constraints and Other options.

Subfield editing form

  • For each subfield you can set the following basic constraint options

    • Subfield code: this is the MARC subfield code, this wouldn’t normally be changed.

    • Text for librarian: text that will show in the staff interface MARC view, and in the basic editor if the advancedMARCeditor system preference is set to display labels.

      Not

      If you use XSLT (see the XSLTDetailsDisplay system preference), the labels for the ‘Normal’ view are defined in the XSLT stylesheet.

      This will not affect the ‘Normal’ view unless you don’t use XSLT.

    • Text for OPAC: text that will show on the MARC view in the OPAC.

      Not

      If left empty, the ‘Text for librarian’ is used instead

      Not

      If you use XSLT (see the OPACXSLTDetailsDisplay system preference), the labels for the ‘Normal’ view are defined in the XSLT stylesheet.

      This will not affect the ‘Normal’ view unless you don’t use XSLT.

    • Repeatable: when checked, the field will have an icon next to it in the basic editor, allowing you to add multiples of this subfield.

    • Mandatory: when checked, the record cannot be saved unless the subfield has a value. In the basic editor, a ‘Required’ flag will display as a prompt.

    • Important: when checked, the field will generate a warning if it is not filled, but unlike ‘Mandatory’, you will still be able to save your record nonetheless. In the basic editor, an ‘Important’ flag will display as a prompt.

    • Managed in tab: defines the tab where the subfield is shown.

      Önemli

      All subfields of a given field must be in the same tab or ignored. Ignore means that the subfield is not managed.

      Uyarı

      When importing records, or editing existing records, subfields that are managed in tab ‘ignore’ will be deleted. If you still wish to keep the subfields, but hide them, use the ‘Visibility’ options below.

  • For each subfield you can set the following advanced constraint options

    • Default value: defines what you want to appear in the field by default, this will be editable, but it saves time if you use the same text over and over or the same value in a field often.

      Not

      There are several values that you can use here that will be replaced automatically when a new record is created:

      • <<MM>> - the current month, 2 digits

      • <<DD>> - the current day of month, 2 digits

      • <<YY>> - the current year, 2 digits

      • <<YYYY>> - the current year, 4 digits

      • <<USER>> - the username of the currently logged in user

      For example: a default of “<<MM>>/<<DD>>/<<YYYY>>” (without quotes) will print the current date in the form of “01/21/2021”

      Not

      When those default values are filled depends on the ApplyFrameworkDefaults system preference.

    • Max length: enter a value here to limit the number of characters that can be entered in the subfield.

    • Visibility: allows you to select from where this subfield is visible or hidden. Check the boxes where you would like the field to show, and uncheck the boxes where you would like it hidden.

      • OPAC: when checked, this will make the subfield available for display in the OPAC. For non-XSLT views, the field will be displayed. For XSLT views, it will depend on the stylesheet.

      • Staff interface: when checked, this will make the subfield available for display in the staff interface. For non-XSLT views, the field will be displayed. For XSLT views, it will depend on the stylesheet.

      • Editor: when checked, this will make the subfield available for modification in the basic editor.

      • Collapsed: when checked, the subfield will be hidden in the basic editor, but will display when the field label is clicked to expand all subfields.

      • Flagged: when checked, the subfield will be unavailable and hidden from all views (equivalent to all boxes being unchecked).

    • Is a URL: if checked, it means that the subfield is a URL and can be clicked.

    • Link: if you enter an index name here, a link appears after the subfield in the MARC detail view in the staff interface. If the librarian clicks on the link, a catalog search is done using the index and the content of the subfield.

    • Koha link: this field is used to create a link between the MARC subfield and a column in the items, biblioitems, and biblio database tables. The mappings can be changed from the Koha to MARC mapping page.

  • Her alt alan için aşağıdakileri diğer seçenek değerlerini ayarlayabilirsiniz

    • Authorized value: means the value must be chosen from a drop-down menu generated from the authorized value list.

      In the example below, the LANG authorized value category has been set to 041$a.

      Other options section of the subfield modification form in the MARC bibliographic framework; authorized value has the value LANG

      This creates a drop-down menu in the basic editor.

      Field 041 in the basic editor, the 041$a subfield had a drop-down menu of languages.

    • Thesaurus: means that the value is linked to the authority catalog of the selected category. Authority categories are managed in the Authority types section.

    • Plugin: means the value is calculated or managed by a cataloguing plugin. Cataloguing plugins, or value builders, can do almost anything.

      • Örnekler:

        • For call numbers there is an option to add a call number browser next to the call number subfield so that you can identify which call numbers are in use and which are not. Simply choose the cn_browser.pl plugin. Learn more in the cataloging section of this manual.

        • Kataloglamayla dosya yüklemelerine izin vermek isterseniz upload.pl eklentisini seçebilirsiniz ve bu, kayıtlarınıza bağlamak için dosyaları :ref:`Koha’ya yüklemenizi <attaching-files-to-records-label> sağlayacaktır.

        • UNIMARC’da kodlu alanların her bir 1XX alanı için eklentiler mevcuttur. Bu eklentiler katalogçu için vazgeçilmez bir yardımcıdır. Aynı zamanda iki eklenti de mevcuttur (editörü ISBN’den ve editör için koleksiyon listesini “hızlı bir şekilde” bulabilen unimarc_plugin_210c ve unimarc_plugin_225a)

        • If you would like to enable an autocomplete search for publishers in 260b and 264b you can set the plugin to marc21_field_260b.pl. When you start typing in a publisher name you will be given search results based on publisher names already in the catalog.

  • To save your changes, click ‘Save changes’.

Tüyo

You can drag and drop the subfield tabs to change the order in which they appear when cataloging with the basic editor.

By default, they will appear in alphanumeric order (0-9, then a-z).

Koha to MARC mapping

While Koha stores the entire MARC record, it also stores common fields for easy access in various tables in the database (mainly the items, biblioitems, and biblio tables). Koha to MARC mapping is used to tell Koha where to find these values in the MARC record. Whenever a record is added or changed, this mapping will be used to update the linked database column. The information from the database columns is used as a way to quickly look up important information without having to parse the full MARC record. It is used for displaying information in a lot of pages and can also be used in reports.

In many cases, you will not have to change the default values set at the time of the installation, but it is important to know that the tool is here and can be used at any time.

Uyarı

If you change mappings after data has been added to your catalog, ask your system administrator to run misc/batchRebuildBiblioTables.pl. This will update the values in the database columns for all your records.

  • Get there: More > Administration > Catalog > Koha to MARC mapping

Not

This section will only be available to staff members with the manage_marc_frameworks (or superlibrarian) permission.

Prompt to add a new mapping

Write in the MARC field and subfield you would like to map, separated by a comma, to this Koha field (for example, “264,a”) and click the ‘OK’ button.

Not

It is possible to link more than one MARC field to a database field. For example, you could link both 260$a and 264$a to the biblioitems.place field.

If you would like to clear the mapping for a database field, click the ‘Remove’ button.

Not

All changes are immediate. Records created or edited after the change will immediately have the new mappings. However, if you want to update the mappings for records already in the catalog, ask your system administrator to run misc/batchRebuildBiblioTables.pl. This will update the values in the database columns for all your records.

  • Check the ‘Source in use?’ checkbox if you want the value to appear in the drop-down list for this category.

  • Select the appropriate filing rule from the drop-down list.

  • Select the appropriate splitting rule from the drop-down list.

Classification filing rules

Filing rules determine the order in which items are placed on shelves. Filing rules normalize call numbers in order for Koha to be able to compare them and sort them in the right order.

For example, a Dewey call number such as ‘636.8/07 SHAW’ will become ‘636_800000000000000_07_SHAW’ in order to be sorted.

The sorted call number is saved in the items.cn_sort or biblioitems.cn_sort fields in the database

  • Uygun bir dosyalama yordamı seçin - dewey, generic ya da lcc

    • The Dewey filing routine generates a sorted call number by following these rules:

      • Concatenates classification and item parts.

      • Converts to uppercase.

      • Removes any leading or trailing white spaces, and forward slashes (/)

      • Separates alphabetic prefix from the rest of the call number

      • Splits into tokens on white spaces and periods.

      • Leaves first digit group as is.

      • Converts second digit group to 15-digit long group, padded on right with zeroes.

      • Converts each whitespace to an underscore.

      • Removes any remaining non-alphabetical, non-numeric, non-underscore characters.

    • The generic filing routine generates a sorted call number by following these rules:

      • Concatenates classification and item parts.

      • Removes any leading or trailing white spaces.

      • Converts each whitespace to an underscore.

      • Converts to uppercase.

      • Removes non-alphabetical, non-numeric, non-underscore characters.

    • The LCC filing routine generates a sorted call number by following these rules:

Classification splitting rules

Splitting rules determine how call numbers are split when printed on a spine label.

Not

Splitting rules are only used if your label layout specifies to split call numbers.

For example, a Dewey call number such as ‘636.8/07 SHAW’ will become

636.807
SHAW

once printed on a spine label.

  • Enter a code. The code is limited to 10 characters and must be unique.

Not

The code is not editable once it has been created.

  • Enter a description. The description is used in the drop-down list when creating or editing a classification source.

  • Choose an appropriate splitting routine - Dewey, Generic, LCC or RegEx

    • The Dewey splitting routine looks for the three digits and the decimal, puts it on one line with the other parts (Cutter, prefix, etc.) each on a separate line (generally split on spaces).

    • The Generic splitting routine splits on spaces.

    • The LCC splitting routine puts each component on a separate line.

    • The RegEx splitting routine allows you to create a custom splitting routine.

      • Some examples of RegEx splitting routines:

        • Split on spaces:

          s/\s/\n/g
          
        • Split on equal signs (=):

          s/(\s?=)/\n=/g
          
        • Split on forward slashes (/):

          s/(\s?\/)/\n/g
          
        • Remove first split if call number starts with J or K:

          s/^(J|K)\n/$1 /
          
        • Cut after 9 characters:

          s/(^.{9})/$1\n/
          

It is possible to mix and match RegEx splitting routines by clicking the ‘New’ link just under the RegEx input box.

For example, if you want to cut after nine characters AND split on spaces, you can write both and the call number ‘971.42805092 C669r’ will be split

971.42805
092
C669r

Record matching rules

MARC kayıtları Koha’ya aktarılırken kayıt eşleştirme kuralları kullanılır.

  • Get there: More > Administration > Catalog > Record matching rules

The rules that you set up here will be referenced with you Stage MARC records for import.

It is important to understand the difference between ‘Match points’ and ‘Match checks’ before adding new matching rules to Koha.

Match points are the criteria that you enter that must be met in order for an incoming record to match an existing MARC record in your catalog. You can have multiple match points on an import rule each with its own score. An incoming record will be compared against your existing records (‘one record at a time’) and given a score for each match point. When the total score of the match points matches or exceeds the threshold given for the matching rule, Koha assumes a good match and imports/overlays according your specifications in the import process. An area to watch out for here is the sum of the match points. Double check that the matches you want will add up to a successful match.

Örnek:

1000 eşiği

Match point on 020$a 1000

Match point on 022$a 1000

Match point on 245$a 500

Match point on 100$a 100

Yukarıdaki örnekte, 020$a veya 022$a alanları üzerindeki eşleşme başarılı bir şekilde sonuçlanacaktır. 245#a başlık ve 100$a yazar alanları (ve 020$a veya 022$a alanları üzerinde değil) yalnızca 600 ile toplanacak ve eşleşme olmayacaktır. Ve 020$a ve 245$a alanları üzerinde bir eşleşme 1500 ile sonuçlanacak ve bu başarılı bir eşleşme iken, 245$a başlık eşleşmesi için ekstra 500 puan fazladan olacaktır. Gelen kayıt 020$a üzerinde 245$a eşleşmesine gerek olmadan başarıyla eşleşmiştir. Bununla birlikte 100$a Eşleşme Puanına 500 skorunu atadıysanız, 245$a başlık ve 100$a yazar alanları, 020$a başarılı bir eşleşme olmasa bile başarılı bir eşleşme olarak (toplam 1000) nitelendirilecektir.

Match checks are not commonly used in import rules. However, they can serve a couple of purposes in matching records. First, match checks can be used as the matching criteria instead of the match points if your indexes are stale and out of date. The match checks go right for the data instead of relying on the data in the indexes. (If you fear your indexes are out of date, a rebuild of your indexes would be a great idea and solve that situation!) The other use for a match check is as a ‘double check’ or ‘veto’ of your matching rule. For example, if you have a matching rule as below:

1000 eşiği

Match point on 020$a 1000

Match check on 245$a

Koha ilk olarak gelmekte olan kaydın mevcut bir kayıtla eşleşip eşleşmediğini görmek için 020$a tag/alt alanına bakacaktır. Eğer ‘eşleşiyorsa’ Eşleşme Kontrolüne geçecek ve doğrudan gelmekte olan veri içindeki 245$a değerine bakacak ve bu değeri kataloğunuzdaki mevcut ‘eşleşen’ kaydın 245$a alanı ile karşılaştıracaktır. Eğer 245$a eşleşiyorsa Koha, eşleştirme başarılı olduğu şekilde devam edecektir. Eğer 245$a eşleşmiyorsa, bu durumda Koha iki kaydın hiç bir şekilde eşleşmediği sonucuna varacaktır. Eşleşme Kontrolleri doğru eşleştirmeleri onaylamak için gerçekten kullanışlı bir araçtır.

Adding matching rules

Yeni bir eşleme kuralı oluşturmak için :

  • Click ‘New record matching rule’

    Add record matching rule form

    • Farklı bir isim seçin ve ‘Eşleme kural kodu’ alanına girin

    • ‘Açıklama’ seçtiğiniz kuralı belirlemekte kullandığınız her hangi bir şey olabilir

    • ‘Eşleşme eşiği’ bir bibliyo’nun ‘eşleşme’ olarak dikkate alınması için kazanması gereken ‘puanların’ toplam sayısıdır

    • ‘Kayıt türü’ bu kuralın kullanılacağı içe aktarma türüdür - otorite ya da bibliyografik

    • Noktaları eşleştir hangi alanların eşleştirileceğini belirlemek üzere ayarlanır

    • ‘Search index’ can be found by looking at the index configuration on your system. For Zebra you might find the right index names in your ccl.properties file. You can also find useful information in the Koha search indexes chapter of this manual.

    • ‘Score’ - The number of ‘points’ a match on this field is worth. If the sum of each score is equal or greater than the match threshold, the incoming record is a match to the existing record.

    • Enter the MARC tag you want to match on in the ‘Tag’ field.

    • Enter the MARC tag subfield you want to match on in the ‘Subfields’ field. For matching on controlfields like 001 the subfields input field can be left empty.

    • ‘Ofset’ – Kontrol alanları kullanımı için, 001-009

    • ‘Uzunluk’ – Kontrol alanları kullanımı için, 001-009

    • There are currently several options for ‘Normalization rules’:

      • None - no normalization rule will be applied

      • Remove spaces

      • Uppercase

      • Lowercase

      • Legacy default - this option was added to maintain the behavior form before the other normalization rules became available.

      • ISBN - using this option will improve matching on ISBN. If your incoming records ISBN fields contain extra text, like ‘9780670026623 (alk. paper)’, they will still match correctly.

    • ‘Required match checks’ - While match points work on the search index, match checks work directly on the data and can be used as the matching criteria instead of the match points or in addition to them to confirm true matches.

Sample bibliographic record matching rule: Control number

Add record matching rule form filled with the example data

  • Değeri eşleştir: 100

  • Record type: Bibliographic record

    Not

    In order to match on the 001 in authority records, you will need to create a second rule, repeating all of these values and change just the record type to ‘Authority record’.

  • Nokta eşleştirmeleri (sadece biri):

  • Search index: control-number

  • Score: 100

  • Tag: 001

    Not

    In MARC21, this field is for the control number assigned by the organization creating, using, or distributing the record.

  • Subfields: empty

  • Offset: 0 or empty

  • Length: 0 or empty

  • Normalization rule: None

  • Required match checks: none (click ‘Remove this match check’)

Record overlay rules

Record overlay rules allow for defining rules for how incoming and original MARC records should be merged on a field tag and context basis when a MARC record is updated.

Contexts

Let’s first focus on understanding the concept of contexts.

Contexts are defined by “module” and “filter” enabling separate rule sets for different contexts.

By setting different filter values for these modules, rules are applied only when the filter value matches for a particular module. A wildcard; “*”, can be used to match all possible filter values.

There are three different context modules:

borrower

Allows for defining rules that will be applied if the currently logged in user’s borrower number matches the filter condition.

categorycode

Allows for defining rules that will be applied if the currently logged in users’s category code matches the filter condition.

source

Allows for defining rules that will be applied if the record is updated in a particular part of Koha. The following update methods are supported:

  • batchimport

  • z39.50

  • intranet

  • bulkmarcimport

  • import_lexile

  • batchmod

A context is really nothing but a module and filter combination. Every time a record is updated i Koha, a context is set an filter values populated with context dependent values.

Examples of two different contexts are saving record in the staff client or the currently logged in user having a particular borrower number, for example “12”.

These two contexts are define as:

Module: source, filter: intranet
Module: borrower, filter: 12

Only the rules of one context, that is a module and filter combination, are applied. If multiple contexts matches they are not merged together.

If we have the following rules:

Module: source, filter: *, tag: 650, preset: Protect
Module: source, filter: *, tag: 500, preset: Protect
Module: borrower, filter: 12, tag: *, preset: Overwrite

And the context of the update where the rules are applied is:

source => "intranet" (wildcard match)
borrower => 1 (no match)

Only the first two rules will be applied.

If instead the context of rule evaluation was:

source => "intranet" (wildcard match)
borrower => 12 (an exact match, which is considered more specific than a wildcard match)

Only the second rule would be applied, even though the first two rules also matches they will be discarded since the context match of that rule set is of lower specificity because of the wildcard.

Context specificity is ranked in the following way:

  • First all the rules are grouped into rule sets identified by a unique filter and module combination.

  • If one or more contexts have a non wildcard filter condition match, the rule set of the context with the module of highest specificity is selected. (The modules are listed in order of specificity above).

  • If no exact context match is found, but one or more wildcard matches are, the rule set of the context with the module of highest specificity is selected.

  • If no context matches the default behavior is to overwrite, the original record with the incoming record.

Rules

A rule consists of a three different parts:

Context

A module and filter to match against as described above.

Tag

A field tag expression for defining which tag(s) the rule should be applied on. Three different tag expressions are supported:

  • An exact tag, for example “650”.

  • A regular expression, for example “6..” matching all 6XX tags.

  • A wildcard, “*”, matching all tags

When rules for a specific context are evaluated, the most specific match is selected. The tag expressions above are listed in order of specificity.

Actions

Each rule defines a set of actions to take depending on the type of update. There are four types of update events: Added, Appended, Removed and Deleted. For each event an action is specified, whether to perform the update, or to skip it.

By enabling/disabling updates for these different events 16 different update behaviours can be defined. There are presets available for the most common/useful combinations:

Preset

Added

Appended

Removed

Deleted

Protect

Skip

Skip

Skip

Skip

Overwrite

Add

Append

Remove

Delete

Add new

Skip

Add and append

Add

Protect from deletion

Add

Append

Remove

Delete

Protect

Added: Skip, Appended: Skip, Removed: Skip, Deleted: Skip

The “Protect” preset will prevent all updates on matching fields, protecting them from being overwritten.

Given this rule:

Module: source, filter: *, Tag: 650, Preset: Protect

And the following original and incoming records:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
650 #0$aTelevision serials$zUnited States$vCatalogs.
100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision pilot programs$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

The 650 field of the original record will retain its original value after the update (but since the default behaviour if no rule matches is to overwrite, the 500 field will be added):

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision serials$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

Overwrite

Added: Add, Appended: Append, Removed: Remove, Deleted: Delete

The “Overwrite” preset will allow all updates on matching fields.

Since the default behavior is to overwrite if no rule matches, adding a rule with the overwrite preset only makes sense if there is some other rule with a lower tag specificity with a different behavior, for example a wildcard tag rule.

So given these two rules:

Module: source, filter: *, Tag: *, Preset: Protect
Module: source, filter: *, Tag: 650, Preset: Overwrite

And the following original and incoming records:

500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision serials$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

Incoming record:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision pilot programs$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

All fields but 650 will be protected on the original record, and the resulting record will be:

500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision pilot programs$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

Add new

Added: Add, Appended: Skip, Removed: Skip, Deleted: Skip

The “Add new” allow updates only if the incoming field is new, that is there exists no fields with this tag in the original record.

Given this rule:

Module: source, filter: *, Tag: 650, Preset: Add

And the following original and incoming records:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
650 #0$aTelevision serials$zUnited States$vCatalogs.
100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision pilot programs$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

The 650 in the incoming record will not overwrite the 650 field in the original record since the original record contains one or more 650 fields. The 500 field will be added since the default rule is to overwrite. The resulting record will be:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision serials$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

On the other hand, if the original record was:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-

The resulting record will be:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision pilot programs$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

This is because there were no 650 fields in the original record, so adding new ones is permitted.

Add and append

Added: Add, Appended: Append, Removed: Skip, Deleted: Skip

In the “Add and append” preset, appending is also permitted, but not removing or deleting.

So if we have the following rule:

Module: source, filter: *, Tag: 650, Preset: Add and append

And the following original and incoming records:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
650 #0$aTelevision serials$zUnited States$vCatalogs.
100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision pilot programs$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

The resulting record will be:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision serials$zUnited States$vCatalogs.
650 #0$aTelevision pilot programs$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

Note that the “old” 650 field from the original record was not removed since we only allow adding or appending new values.

If we instead used the “Overwrite” preset the resulting record would instead be:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision pilot programs$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

with the 650 field of the original record removed.

Protect from deletion

Added: Add, Appended: Append, Removed: Remove, Deleted: Skip

The preset “Protect from deletion” will allow all update operations except deletion. Deletion is defined as when there are no fields of the matching tag in the incoming record so that all of the fields with this tag would be removed on the original record.

So given the following rule:

Module: source, filter: *, Tag: 650, Preset: Protect from deletion

And the following original and incoming records:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
650 #0$aTelevision serials$zUnited States$vCatalogs.
100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision pilot programs$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

The resulting record will be:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision pilot programs$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

On the other hand, if the incoming record was:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.

In this case the deletion of 650 would not be permitted and the value of the field on the original record would be protected. The resulting record would instead be:

100 1#$aTerrace, Vincent,$d1948-
500 ##$aIncludes index.
650 #0$aTelevision serials$zUnited States$vCatalogs.

Custom presets

To work with custom presets, a more complete understanding of the update events is required:

Added

For a matching rule with a tag, the action configured for the “Added” event is applied for new fields in the incoming record if the original record has no fields with that tag. If the action is “Add” they will be added to the original record, if “Skip” they will be thrown away.

Appended

If the two record have common fields with the rule tag, that is one or more fields with identical subfield and identifier values, the action configured for the “Appended” event is applied for fields found in incoming record but not in original record. If the action is “Append” they will be added to the original record, if “Skip” they will be thrown away.

Removed

If the two records have common fields with the rule tag, the action configured for the “Removed” action is applied for fields found in original record but not in incoming record. If the action is “Remove” they will removed from the original record, if “Skip” they will be kept.

Deleted

If the original record have fields with the rule tag, but no fields with this tag is found in the incoming record, the action configured for the “Deleted” event is applied for the fields in the incoming record. If the action is “Delete” the fields will be removed from the original record, if “Skip” they will be kept.

Table of currently defined currencies

Not

You can customize the columns of this table in the ‘Table settings’ section of the Administration module (table id: currency).

  • Currency: this is the code for the currency. For default currencies, the ISO code is used as currency code (for example ‘USD’ for the US dollar). The ISO code will be used when importing MARC files via the staging tools. The tool will attempt to find and use the price of the currently active currency.

  • Rate: the rate will be used to calculate the price in the active currency.

    Not

    Bu veriler otomatik olarak güncelleştirilmez, bu nedenle hesabınızın doğru tutulması için güncel olduklarından emin olun.

  • Symbol: this is the symbol for the currency (for example, $ for USD, or € for EUR).

  • Last updated: this is the date when the currency was last updated in Koha.

  • Active: the active currency is the main currency you use in your library. The active currency will have a check mark in the ‘Active’ column. If you don’t have an active currency you will see an error message telling you to choose an active currency.

    Warning message reading "No active currency is defined. Please edit one currency and mark it as active."

    The active currency must have a rate of 1. There can only be one active currency.

  • Archived: archived currencies will have ‘Yes’ in this column. Archived currencies cannot be used in the acquisitions module.

    Not

    It is currently not possible to manually archive currencies. Currencies will be archived if Koha is updated and a currency that was used previously in the acquisitions module was deleted.

  • Actions: use the buttons to edit or delete currencies.

    Not

    If a currency was used at least once, it will not be possible to delete it.

Adding a new currency

If a currency that you use is not already in your system, you can create it.

  • Click ‘New currency’.

Form to add a new currency

  • Fill out the form.

    • Currency: enter a code for the currency, this can be the ISO code, or another code. This is what will be displayed in the acquisitions module.

      Not

      If you decide to use a custom code here, make sure to fill out the ISO code with the correct code for the currency. This will ensure that prices are calculated according to the rate.

      Not

      This field is limited to 10 characters.

    • Rate: enter the rate of this currency relative to your active currency.

    • Symbol: enter the symbol for the currency (for example, $ for USD, or € for EUR).

    • ISO code: enter the ISO code for the currency (for example ‘USD’ for the US dollar). This field is optional. If this field is empty, Koha will use the currency code (above) as the ISO code for price calculations.

    • Last updated: this will be filled automatically with today’s date, it is not possible to manually change this date.

    • Space separation between symbol and value: if checked, Koha will display the price with a space before the currency symbol (for example, 10.99 $ rather than 10.99$).

    • Active: check this box if this currency is the default currency used in the acquisitions module. Note that there can only be one active currency and that the active currency’s rate must be 1.

  • Click ‘Submit’.

Editing a currency

If you often order from other countries, it will be necessary to update the exchange rate regularly in order to calculate the prices precisely.

To edit an existing currency,

  • Click the ‘Edit’ button to the right of the currency in the currencies table.

  • Change the rate, or other value.

    Not

    Note that the currency code and the last updated date cannot be edited.

If there are currencies that you never use, it is possible to delete them.

From the currencies table, click the ‘Delete’ button to the right of the currency.

Uyarı

Currencies that have been used at least once in the acquisitions module cannot be deleted.

Bütçeler

Budgets are used for tracking accounting values related to acquisitions. For example you could create a budget for the current year (ex. 2015) and then break that into funds for different areas of the library (ex. Books, Audio, etc).

  • Gidiş yolu:* Daha fazla > Yönetim > Sağlama > Bütçeler

Ana bütçe yönetimini ziyaret ettiğinizde, iki tane sekme göreceksiniz; bunlardan biri aktif diğeri de aktif olmayan bütçelerdir.

Bütçe eklemek

Budgets can either be created from scratch or by duplicating the previous year’s budget.

Adding a new budget

If you haven’t used Koha before for acquisitions, you’ll need to start fresh with a new budget.

To add a new budget,

  • Click the ‘New budget’ button.

    Form to add a new budget

  • Fill out the form:

    • Start date (mandatory): choose the starting date for the time period this budget is for. This can be the start of the calendar year, fiscal year, academic year, quarter, etc.

    • End date (mandatory): choose the ending date for the time period this budget is for.

    • Description (mandatory): enter a description for this budget. The description should be something that will help you identify the budget when ordering.

    • Total amount: enter the amount for the budget. Do not use any symbols, simply enter the amount of the budget with numbers and decimals.

    • Make budget active: marking a budget as active makes it usable when placing orders in the acquisitions module, even if the order is placed after the budget end date. This will allow you to record orders that were placed in a previous budget period.

    • Lock budget: locking a budget means that you will not be able to add funds or add sub funds to this budget, and you will not be able to plan spending. Lock the budget once it is set as you wish.

  • Click ‘Save’.

You will be brought back to the list of existing budgets.

Proceed to add funds to the budget.

Duplicating a budget

At the end of the year, or the end of your budget period, you can duplicate the current budget. This will also duplicate all funds, so you don’t have to start from scratch each year or period.

To duplicate a budget,

  • From the list of budgets, click the ‘Actions’ button on the right.

    Main page of bugdet administration, New budget button at the top, followed by two tabs, one for active budgets and the other for inactive budgets, the active budgets tab is selected and showing a table with budget information (budget name, start date, end date, and amount)

  • Choose ‘Duplicate’.

    In the table of active budgets, the Actions button is open and the mouse cursor is on the Duplicate option

Alternatively,

  • From the list of budgets, click on the budget name.

    • Change amounts by: by default, the total amount from the duplicated budget and the original amounts for each fund will be used. However, if needed, you can indicate to change the amounts by a percentage, that can be positive or negative. For example, if your new budget was increased by 2%, enter 2. Inversely, if your new budget was decreased by 2%, enter -2.

    • If amounts changed, round to a multiple of: if you entered a value in ‘Change amounts by’, Koha will calculate the amounts automatically. You can force it to round down the amounts. For example, entering ‘100’, will round down the amounts to the hundreds (5542 will become 5500).

    • Mark the original budget as inactive: check this box if the original budget should no longer be used, effective immediately. You can always edit the budget later to make it inactive.

    • Set all funds to zero: check this box if you wish the new budget to contain all the same fund structures as the previous budget but no allocations until you manually enter an amount in the fund.

This will not only duplicate the budget, but all of the funds associated with that budget so that you can reuse budgets and funds from year to year.

When the time comes, you can close the previous budget to move unreceived orders, and, if desired, unspent funds to the new budget.

Identity providers

This section is used to define and manage external identity providers for Koha users. This is used when your users come from an external source, such as student management system, active directory, or other similar databases.

  • Get there: More > Administration > Additional parameters > Identity providers

Adding an identity provider

To add an identity provider, click the ‘New identity provider’ button.

New identity provider form

  • Basic configuration

    • Code: enter a code for this provider.

      Not

      The code for the identity provider is limited to 20 characters and can only be composed of letters, numbers, and underscore (_).

    • Description: enter a name for this provider. This is what you will see in the interface.

    • Protocol: choose which protocol this identity provider uses.

      • OAuth

      • OIDC

  • Advanced configuration

    • Configuration: Use this field to enter the configuration specific to the protocol chosen above.

      You can click on the ‘Add default OAuth configuration’ button or the ‘Add default OIDC configuration’ button to prefill the field with some default values, which you can change for your own values.

      The default OAuth configuration is:

      {
       "key": "<enter client id>",
       "secret": "<enter client secret>",
       "authorize_url": "<enter authorization endpoint>",
       "token_url": "<enter token endpoint>",
       "userinfo_url": "<enter user info endpoint (optional)>",
       "scope": "email"
      }
      

      The default OIDC configuration is:

      {
       "key": "<enter client id>",
       "secret": "<enter client secret>",
       "well_known_url": "<enter openid configuration endpoint>",
       "scope": "openid email"
      }
      
    • Mapping: Use this field to define the field mappings from the external database to the Koha borrower fields.

      The key is the Koha field from the borrowers table, and the value is the external field.

      Not

      You can find all fields of the borrowers table in the database schema [https://schema.koha-community.org/].

      You can click on the ‘Add default OAuth mapping’ button or the ‘Add default OIDC mapping’ button to prefill the field with some default values, which you can change for your own values.

       "email": "email",
       "firstname": "given_name",
       "surname": "family_name"
      }
      

      If the external fields are nested, you can use periods to separate the levels.

      For example, if the firstname is nested like so:

      <user>
         <given_name>First name</given_name>
         <family_name>Family name</family_name>
         <email>Email address</email>
      </user>
      

      Use:

      "firstname": "user.0.given_name"
      

      This will fetch the “given_name” field in the first “user” field (0 = first).

    • Auto register: choose whether or not a new patron account is created in Koha when a user from this domain logs in for the first time with their credentials from this identity provider.

      Not

      If auto register is enabled, make sure the “userid” or “cardnumber” fields are included in the mappings (see above).

      Also make sure the default library and default category are set correctly for new patrons. These will be assigned to the new patrons.

    • Update on login: choose whether or not the patron account in Koha is updated with the external information when a user from this domain logs in with their credentials from this identity provider.

      Uyarı

      Information may be lost if you change it directly in Koha.

Once the form is completed, click ‘Submit’ to save the new identity provider.

You will need to restart Koha once the identity provider is added.

Bunu mu demek istediniz?

Get there: More > Administration > Additional parameters > Did you mean?

Koha, aramalarınızda otoriteler içerisindeki değerlerinizi esas alarak ‘Bunu mu demek istediniz?’ seçeneğini sunabilir.

Önemli

Did you mean? only works in the OPAC at this time. The intranet options are here for future development.

Bu sayfayı kullanarak KOHA’nın kullanıcılara arama sonuçlarında hangi seçenekleri sunacağını kontrol edebilirsiniz.

image235

‘Bunu mu demek istediniz?’ çubuğunu arama sonuçlarında açmak için kullanmak istediğiniz her bir eklentinin yanındaki kutuyu onaylamanız gerekir. Seçmeniz gereken iki eklenti şunlardır:

  • Ayrılmış Terimler eklentisi kullanıcının daha geniş/daha dar/ verilen aramayla ilgili terimlerini belirtir (örneğin bir kullanıcı aynı zamanda “New York (Şehir)” ile de ilgileniyorsa “New Yorku (Eyalet)” arıyorken daha dar terimlere tıklayacaktır ). Bu sadece yüksek hiyerarşik otorite verili kütüphaneler ile ilgilidir.

  • Otorite dosya eklentisi otorite dosyasını araştırır ve kullanıcıya ilgilenebileceği en çok tercih edilen 5 otoriteye bağlı bibliyografik kayıtları önerir

Bir eklentinin diğerinden önce gelmesini istiyorsanız, o eklentiyi bir diğerinin üstüne sürükleyiniz.

image236

Her iki eklentiyi de seçerseniz arama sonuçlarınızın üst kısmında çeşitli seçenekler göreceksiniz

Sadece AuthorityFile seçerseniz sadece otoriteleri görürsünüz.

Table settings

This administration area will help you hide or display columns on fixed tables throughout the staff interface and OPAC.

  • Get there: Administration > Additional parameters > Table settings

Screenshot of the Table settings page, where we can see all the modules of Koha that have customizable tables

Tablolarını düzenlemek istediğiniz modül üzerine tıklamak size kullanabileceğiniz seçenekleri gösterir.

Bu alan söz konusu tablo içinde gösterilen sütunları kontrol etmenizi sağlar. Hiç bir şey gizli değilse ‘varsayılan olarak gizli’ sütununda hiç bir onay işareti görmeyeceksiniz.

The currencies table settings, no columns are marked as hidden

Ve tabloyu düzenli sayfasında görüntülerken tüm sütunları göreceksiniz.

The currencies administration table, all columns are visible

Eğer sütunlar gizli ise ‘varsayılan olarak gizli’ sütununa onay işaretleri konulacaktır.

The currencies table settings, the symbol and ISO code columns are marked as hidden

Ve tabloyu görüntülerken gizlenecektir.

The currencies administration table, the symbol and ISO code columns are hidden

The ‘Cannot be toggled’ column is used to prevent individual users from showing or hiding this column when viewing the table.

Individual users can toggle columns using the ‘Columns’ button at the top of the table.

The button 'Columns' above the currencies administration table is clicked open and all the column names appear

For example, in the Currencies table, the ‘Currency’ and ‘Rate’ columns cannot be toggled. When the user clicks on the ‘Columns’ button, they are not able to choose whether these two columns are hidden or visible.

Note that using the ‘Columns’ button show or hide columns will only toggle them for the current user and session. Once the user logs out, the columns will go back to their default settings as set in the table settings administration page. It will not affect any other user.

Share content with Mana KB

Mana KB is a worldwide knowledge base used to share content specific to libraries. Koha is currently connected to Mana Kb in order to share serial subscription models and reports. This section is used to configure your connexion with Mana KB.

Get there: More > Administration > Additional parameters > Share content with Mana KB

image1426

In the form, choose whether you want to use Mana KB to share content or not. The default is “No, let me think about it”. If you do want to use Mana KB, change the option to “Yes”. If you do not want to share with Mana KB, choose “No”, this will remove the blue rectangle from the Administration home page.

The rest of this section assumes you chose “Yes”.

Choose whether you want to share your subscription models automatically. This means that every time you create a subscription in the serials module, it will be automatically shared with Mana KB and other libraries will be able to copy it.

In order to configure Mana KB, you must get a Mana KB token to authenticate your Koha installation on the Mana KB server.

Enter your name or your organization’s name in the “Your name” field.

Enter your email in the “Email” field. Make sure you have access to this email inbox since you will receive further information by email.

Once you send your information to Mana KB, you will get a Mana KB token.

image1427

In the email your receive, click on the confirmation link and confirm you are not a robot to finish the Mana KB setup.

Additional fields

This section is used to add custom fields to order baskets, invoice, serial subscriptions, and accountlines.

To add a new field, first choose which table you want to add it to.

Click on “Create field”

Fill out the form

Add field form

  • Name: this is the name of the field as you want it to appear.

  • Authorized value category: if you want to add a drop-down menu to the field choose an authorized value category here (you can also create a new authorized value category if you need to).

  • MARC field: for additional subscription fields, it is possible to link the field to a MARC field. The additional field will be automatically populated with the corresponding record’s value for this MARC field.

Not

You can only choose one of the two options (authorized value OR MARC field)

Uyarı

If you choose the MARC field, make sure you enter it in this format: field$subfield

For example: 590$a

  • Searchable: check this box if you want to be able to search baskets or subscriptions based on this field

Examples of additional fields

Example 1: Additional subscription field using authorized values

You might want to track which department you’re ordering this serial for

  • In the ‘Name’ field, enter ‘Department’

  • In the ‘Authorized value category’ field, choose DEPARTMENT

  • Check the ‘Searchable’ box

Add field form, filled with Department as the Name, DEPARTMENT as the authorized value category and Searchable is checked

When you are adding a subscription, the field will be in the ‘Additional fields’ section with its authorized values drop-down menu.

Add a new subscription form (2 of 2), with additional fields at the bottom

When you view the subscription, the field will appear under ‘Additional fields’.

Subscription details page, Information tab, with buttons at the top (New subscription for this serial, Edit, Renew, Receive, Close) and menu on the left (Serial collection, Create routing list, Claims, Check expiration, Manage frequencies, Manage numbering patterns, Manage subscription fields, Serials statistics wizard)

Because we made the field searchable, it will also be in the serials subscription search.

Serials advanced search form

Example 2: Additional subscription field using MARC field

This is particularly useful if you want to view bibliographic information in the subscription detail page. In this example, we will add the 521$a field, which is, in MARC21, the target audience note.

  • In the ‘Name’ field, enter ‘Target audience’

  • In the ‘MARC field’ field, enter ‘521$a’

Add field form, filled with Target audience as the Name, and 521$a as the MARC field

Not

You will not be able to edit this field from the subscription form. If you need to add or change the value in this field, you must go through the cataloging module.

When you view the subscription, the field and the information from the bibliographic record will appear under ‘Additional fields’.

Subscription details page, Information tab, with buttons at the top (New subscription for this serial, Edit, Renew, Receive, Close) and menu on the left (Serial collection, Create routing list, Claims, Check expiration, Manage frequencies, Manage numbering patterns, Manage subscription fields, Serials statistics wizard)

Example 3: Free text invoice additional field

If you need to enter additional information in invoices, such as the number of the check used to pay for the invoice, you can choose not to use an authorized value at all.

  • In the ‘Name’ field, enter ‘Check #’

  • Check the ‘Searchable’ box

Add field form, filled with Check # as the Name, and Searchable is checked

The new fields will be displayed when viewing the invoice in the acquisitions module.

Detailed invoice page, with additional fields and AcqEnableFiles enabled

Because we made the field searchable, it will also be in the invoice search.
