Please refer to the "FIX DB Table config.coded_value_map" +section further down for important information on whether you need +to apply the fix and how to do so. + +== New Features == + +:leveloffset: +2 + + += Acquisitions = + + +== EDI Attribute Added for Enumerating Lineitems Sequentially == + +Historically, Evergreen's EDI output has used the internal lineitem ID as the +line sequence number in LIN lines. Some vendors (e.g. ULS) would prefer LIN to +use a sequentially assigned number instead. A new EDI attribute, "Lineitems +Are Enumerated Sequentially," has been added to support that. See +[LP 1949243](https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1949243) for further +discussion. + + + + += Administration = + + +== Add payment type to OPAC printed payment receipt Action Trigger definition == + +Adds correct payment type to the money.payment_receipt.print action trigger template, replacing the hard-coded "Credit Card". + +An upgrade script is include which updates the money.payment_receipt.print action trigger template if it has not been altered from stock. + + +== IMPORTANT: FIX DB Table config.coded_value_map == + +If your Evergreen database pre-dates version 3.13 and you have executed the DB upgrade (1416) which was included in the Evergreen upgrade files: + +* Open-ILS/src/sql/Pg/version-upgrade/3.12.3-3.13.0-upgrade-db.sql +* Open-ILS/src/sql/Pg/version-upgrade/1416.data.updated_marc_tag_tables.sql + +As described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/2073561[LP2073561] + +You have two options: + +. Use the provided fix SQL script to reset the tables to stock +. Use a backup database that you may have pre-3.13 upgrade, and restore these two tables: +.. config.coded_value_map +.. config.composite_attr_entry_definition ++ +NOTE: You might prefer option 2 if you have customized the coded_value_map for new/different OPAC Icon/Search Formats. + +=== Option 1: Reset the tables to stock + +You will need to manually run the provided SQL file: + +IMPORTANT: Open-ILS/src/sql/Pg/LP2073561.fix.coded.value.map-post_3.13_upgrade.sql + +Example: + +[source,bash] +---- +psql evergreen < Open-ILS/src/sql/Pg/LP2073561.fix.coded.value.map-post_3.13_upgrade.sql +---- + +You may need additional options for the psql command depending on your environment. + +=== Option 2: Restore from backup + +. From the old copy of your database, pre-dating an upgrade to 3.13 ++ +[source,bash] +---- +pg_dump evergreen --data-only --schema config \ +--table config.coded_value_map \ +--table config.composite_attr_entry_definition \ +> ccvm_restore.sql +---- ++ +. Copy ccvm_restore.sql to an accessible location on your production database ++ +[source,bash] +---- +psql evergreen -c "truncate config.coded_value_map CASCADE;" +psql evergreen < ccvm_restore.sql +---- + +You may need additional options for the psql and pg_dump commands +depending on your environment. + +IMPORTANT: We highly recommend testing these steps on a non-production database! + + +NOTE: If your Evergreen database started on version 3.13 and above, then you may ignore these instructions. + + + +== Reporter Lock File Improvements == + +Changes in the location, name, and handling of the reporter's +(`clark-kent.pl`) lockfile may require adjustments in local management +scripts. + +The lockfile's default location has been moved from +`/tmp/reporter-LOCK` to `LOCALSTATEDIR/run/reporter.pid`, +`/openils/var/run/reporter.pid` in a default configuration. This +change allows it to fit in better with other Evergeen utilities that +use a similar location and name for their runtime files: SIPServer, +the MARC stream importer, etc. + +If run as a daemon, the reporter now deletes the lockfile when the +main process exits. This is not only good disk hygiene; the user or +administrator no longer has to manually delete the lockfile before +starting a new instance of the reporter. + +Sites with scripts to start and stop the reporter may wish to review +them to determine if this update requires any changes to their +processes. + + +== Global Long-Lived Cache Clearing for Staff Client == + +A new global flag (staff.client_cache_key) has been added that allows +administrators to clear certain long-lived cache values from all staff clients +at next login by simply changing the value. Currently only the MARC Tag Tables +used by the bibliographic and authority record editors are cleared, but the +list of localStorage items cleared may be expanded in future. This key is +simply an opaque string - no special format is required - changing the value in +any way will trigger a wave of cache clearing. + + + += Architecture = + + +== Evergreen Supports PostgreSQL 17 == + +PostgreSQL 17 can be installed along with Evergreen using the normal +prerequisite installation process. + + + += Cataloging = + + +== Batch Edit Parts in the Holdings Editor == + +The holdings editor now has an option to batch edit bibliographic parts. + + + + += Client = + + +== Table Density Setting == + +Evergreen staff users can now set their preferred density for +grids throughout the client. The three options are: compact +(not much whitespace), Standard, and Wide (more whitespace). + +To select a setting: + +. Go to Administration -> Workstation. +. Select a value from the "Table Density" dropdown. +. Log out of the staff client and log back in to load the newly + selected density setting. + + + += OPAC = + + +== Eresource link click tracking == + +This version of Evergreen introduces the ability +to track user clicks on eresources in the public +catalog. + +This feature provides usage data on eresources in +the catalog. One potential use for this feature +is to provide the equivalent of circulation +statistics for online course materials. + +Data can be accessed via the Evergreen reporter. + +=== Data collection + +This feature does not collect any personally +identifiable data about the user who clicks +on the link. The pieces of data that are +collected are: + +* The URL clicked +* The time it was clicked +* The bibliographic record that contains the +URL. +* The ID, name, and number of any courses +that use the bibliographic record. + +=== Enabling the feature + +The new tables can grow forever, so before +enabling this feature: + +* Ensure that you are monitoring disk space on +the server(s) that house your postgres database. +* Decide on a retention period for click data, +and set up the provided +``delete_old_eresource_link_clicks`` +script to delete old data regularly. + +To enable this feature: + +. Set the +``opac.eresources.link_click_tracking`` +global flag to true. +. Restart memcached and apache HTTP server. + + +=== Accuracy + +Statistics from this feature are collected +on a best efforts basis, and have certain +limitations when it comes to accuracy: + +* It does +not provide any guarantees against somebody +deliberately inflating the statistics of a +particular link, either through repeated network +calls or repeatedly clicking on a link they don't +actually intend to read. +* Clicks from certain very old, unsupported browsers +(notable Microsoft Internet Explorer) will +not be counted. +* Major bots are excluded, but uncommon bots and +bots that set a misleading User Agent header are +included unless they are blocked at the web server +or load balancer level. + + + +### Library Group Item Counts in catalog + +When a user selects a library group in the catalog (either the +public catalog or the staff catalog), the catalog now displays +the number of items held and available in that group. This +information supplements the existing holding statements +available in the catalog. + +If you have customized any of the following files, you will need +to update them to see the library group item counts. + +* opac/parts/misc_util.tt2 +* opac/parts/record/copy_counts.tt2 +* opac/parts/result/copy_counts.tt2 + + +== Move the OPAC alert banner to a library setting == + +Moves the Bootstrap OPAC maintenance message alert banner from the config.tt2 file to a trio of new library settings. + +. OPAC Alert Banner: Display (true / false) +. OPAC Alert Banner: Text (the message that will appear) +. OPAC Alert Banner: Type (success, info, warning, danger) + +The alert banner types utilize the existing CSS to determine the color scheme. + +== Move Google Analytics configuration to library settings == + +Moves the Google Analytics configuration from the config.tt2 file +in the Bootstrap OPAC to two new library settings. + +. Google Analytics: Enable (true/false) +. Google Analytics: Code (Analytics account code) + + + += Miscellaneous = + + +* Remove deprecated method "open-ils.serial.bib.summary_statements". + As an upgrade note, any site that is still keeping the legacy JSPAC + running will experience more degradation of its functionality. +* Make the foreign key relationship between the acq.invoice_item and acq.fund_debit tables deferrable so that fund debits can be deleted when they reference invoice items that are deleted in the same transaction.
