[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Acquisitions - My Selection Lists

[James Fournie]

Hi George --

It's definitely possible but not terribly intuitive.  The "My Selection
Lists" is just a variant of the "General Search", so you can just "Show
Search Form" in the "My Selection Lists" and adjust the search to something
that retrieves the other person's lists, assuming you have the correct
permissions.

If you wanted to change the default settings, look at
Open-ILS/web/js/ui/default/search/unified.js, specifically this bit:

        "pl": {
            "search_object": {
                "acqpl": [
                    {"owner": openils.User.user.usrname()}
                ]
            },
            "result_type": "picklist",
            "conjunction": "and",
            "order_by": [
                {"class": "acqpl", "field": "edit_time", "direction":
"desc"}
            ]
        },

You can change that "owner":openils.User.user.usrname() to
"org_unit":openils.User.user.ws_ou() to show all picklists at the local
workstation.   Or something like that to taste.

When adding items from say the Z39.50 search, I think it will autocomplete
any picklist you have permission to add to.
