Launchpad bug 1398107 in Evergreen "No warning provided when bib records with holds are deleted" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1398107 - Assigned to Chris Sharp (chrissharp123) |

https://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=working/Evergreen.git;a=commit;h=78d95afde4e7063f3c59abc1337c8c3d89067e2c - I have a feeling I have the editor syntax wrong here - still a little shaky on perl references and not sure the type of object I have in my hands at any given time :-) |

csharp: you need a transaction for the update to succeed, and then a commit. |
| 12:21 |
|
mantis1 left #evergreen |
| 12:24 |
Dyrcona |
Ah, but the editor already has a transaction open, so that looks OK to me. |
| 12:24 |
berick |
csharp: also avoid using '... if $e->die_event' because that will force-kill the transaction. return $e->die_event unless $e->update_action_... or similar is what you want. |
| 12:25 |
berick |
you'll want to run the hold targeter for the modified holds as well |
| 12:29 |
|
mrisher joined #evergreen |
| 12:30 |
Dyrcona |
Hm... yeah. but do we want the transaction to fail if the holds can't be updated? |
| 12:31 |
berick |
no, similar APIs do the retargeting after commit |
| 12:31 |
berick |
e.g. open-ils.cat.transfer_copies_to_volume |
| 12:32 |
Dyrcona |
OK. |
| 12:35 |
Dyrcona |
csharp: What part of the editor syntax are you concerned about? You did the editor calls correctly for what it looks like you're trying to do. |
| 12:35 |
Dyrcona |
Except the die_event as noted by berick. |
| 12:35 |
Dyrcona |
And, that's semantic not syntax..... |
| 12:35 |
berick |
Dyrcona: i might have misread your question.. we want the xact to fail if the hold update fails, but not if the regarget fails. |
| 12:36 |
Dyrcona |
OK. So should it return $e->event, not $e->die_event, then? |
| 12:37 |
berick |
it should just check the return value of the update call |
| 12:37 |
berick |
return $e->die_event unless $e->update_action_... |
| 12:37 |
berick |
(using your if/unless structure of choice) |
| 12:37 |

All right.... Too much going on this week. :) |

Hey all! We are doing a mass fine amnesty of all the fines (not replacement costs, fees, etc.) in our OU. Does anybody have a good procedure for that ready to go? I don't do much with fines usually. |
| 13:43 |
jeff |
I'm working on a new version of what we've used in the far past, but that won't help you right now. |
| 13:43 |
jeff |
Are you looking to forgive all outstanding fines of a particular billing type? |
| 13:43 |
jeff |
Or just have "everything checks in in amnesty mode" for a while, or? |
| 13:46 |
troy__ |
we are also looking at something like this, but just for overdues |
| 13:46 |

has a script somewhere that I used to pay all bills of certain types or for certain ous somewhere. I'll see if I can find it and share it. |

We were hoping to minimize some confusion for circ staff, and also not contribute to any financial duress at this time. |
| 13:56 |
Dyrcona |
The thing I shared is not what anyone has said they actually wanted, but it makes a decent starting point. You have to enter patron barcodes via STDIN. |

i'm currently looking at db updates / inserts, but may do something like that |

Dyrcona |
You'll want to run the Perl on a utility server or brick where you can access the backend via Perl, of course. |
| 13:58 |
sandbergja |
Dyrcona: that looks like a really good starting place! Thank you |
| 14:01 |
Dyrcona |
You're welcome! I have lots of things like that hanging around. I'll see if I have something better, but I don't think so. |
| 14:06 |
Dyrcona |
No, that looks like the best example. I've got a couple of bill search scripts and one that pays all bills that says in the comments it was trying to induce a debuggable crash. |

Prior to current events, we've had a number of libraries go fine free, so I've been inserting forgive payments for circs that fit the criteria. Not perfect, as I realized the transactions don't get closed, so I had to clean that up. I'll share a sample database query. |

That's probably true. Some of us (me) are not great at remaining productive in the face of unexpected transitions to new work paradigms. We make up for this fact by attempting grammatically correct sentences and high dollar vocabulary. It's a front. |

I just tested an emergency closing on a past due date on a test system, and the Emergency closing report indicated Circulations: 0/783. Am I missing a setting somewhere? |
