Cataloging now purges records must faster. There was in issue introduced in the 1.7 release that caused Cataloging to make unnecessary connections to the Picture table during the purge operation.
Circulation
1. Equipment Title in the Transactions list has been corrected to display from 245#a on the equipment record.
2. Patrons could not loan more than one item belonging to a special reserve group.
Utilities
CleanUp
Better window behavior when another window is opened on top of the CleanUp window.
The 005 field is updated when a Bibliographic or Holding record is marked for deletion.
When doing “Find Bibs without Holdings” any Bibliographic records that were found but had an open transaction are not automatically deleted or purged now. The Bibliographic ISN’s with open transactions will remain on the list and the user has the choice to proceed with the delete or purge or to not proceed and analyze the problem.
When doing “Find Holdings without Bibs” any Holding records that were found but had an open transaction are not automatically deleted or purged now. The Holding ISN’s open transactions will remain on the list and the user has the choice to proceed with the delete or purge or to not proceed and analyze the problem.
When deleting/purging by barcode the delete/purge would still occur even if there was an open transaction on either the Holding or Bibliographic record.
When purging by barcode the bib would get purged if all of the holdings were marked for deletion leaving the marked holdings without a bib.
TableRepair
A minimize button has been added to TableRepair.
A new check box has been added to the “Find Detached Barcode Records” portion of TableRepair, which allows the program to create a new barcode record for each patron and holding that does not already have a corresponding barcode record. A brief summary of the number of patron and holding barcode records created is displayed after the Find Detached Barcode Records processing is finished.
When running “Find Detached Barcode Records”, if a barcode record is deleted but the corresponding patron or holding record is not deleted, TableRepair will detect that situation and undelete the barcode record.
TableRepair would sometimes stop updating the window after another window was opened. This would result in TableRepair showing as “Not Responding” in Task Manager, even though the program was still functioning and would eventually finish normally. This problem has been corrected.
TableRepair no longer erroneously deletes user created fines when doing the “Find Open and Detached Transaction Records” portion of the program.
