[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Acquisitions on Evergreen

[Sheila Miller]

Hello

Can anyone help us with these acquisitions issues?  If there is someone out there we would love to hear from you.

We went live on Evergreen on December 1st 2011 (SEDAR Consortium)  and find acquisitions a real struggle.  
1. Invoices of more than 100 lines do not save. We have one at present which will not save and close therefore is not debiting the budgets.         Neither will it let a line be removed, so it is just in a limbo.
2. Purchase orders of over 50 lines take forever to reload., e.g. 150 lines took 3 minutes to re-load.
3. Load MARC order records Purchase Order did not activate - we ended up cancelling it and creating a new one in a different way.
4. If you activate a PO and there is a problem with one of the lines, system does not tell you which line is problem, so you need to go through them all
5. When moving items from Selection List to a PO, it changes the order, then when you create an invoice for the items, they go into a different order. There is no means of selecting which way they are put in order.
6. Can be on page 3 of a selection List, but get put back to page 1 when you add a line and save it. 
7. When in a PO you always get put back to top of list when you save a line and have to scroll down to where you were.

This list of problems is not exhaustive, just the most annoying ones.
Looking forward to solutions

Best wishes

Sheila
