[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Holdings View in Web Client

[scott.thomas at sparkpa.org]

Elaine,
   I agree this is an impediment to implementing the Web Client in centralized or semi-centralized cataloging departments (of which we have many). I am just not conversant on the ins & outs of how to get fixes into a release versus a maintenance release versus a patch.

We would need it fixed sooner, if all or libraries are to move to the web client for cataloging.

Elaine,
    Thank you. This is ringing a bell now, but I did not internalize it until one of my libraries complained and documented it. This is really bad. I noticed it has a high priority but is unassigned. What can we do to get this fixed in 3.2 if not sooner?

Scott,
There is a bug report for this --https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1715697
It is very problematic. Many of or libraries have more than 5 branches and this bug makes it impossible for them to use the web client

I just had this reported to me, and it does seem to be problematic. Many of our libraries use Holdings Maintenance in XUL as the first step in adding volumes and copies. This works out well because, even if a given library system has no volumes or copies under a given title, the org unit tree for that system appears in Holdings Maintenance and you can easily add volumes / copies to a specific branch. This tree does not appear in the Web Client so adding volumes to a branch requires several more steps as a user is forced to select the branch org unit at several junctures.  Am I missing something? Has anyone else noticed this?
