SIP2: Special return message is not working at night
- Article Type: General
- Product: Aleph
- Product Version: 20
Problem Symptoms:
* At night (e.g. after 20:20) the SIP2 Server is not sending special return message anymore when advance booking items (according to tab43) are returned.
* During the day there is no problem with this functionality.
Cause:
Because of a bug in program the system is checking the server time against col. 4 of tab43 ("End of Period Date").
For example if you have defined periods up to 20201231 the function will stop working at night after 20:20 (8:20 PM).
Resolution:
This is fixed with rep_change 2251 in Aleph 21.
Following workaround will work until a fix is installed:
* Add an additional section in tab43 with "End of period date" 24001231.
Example setup of ./xxx50/tab/tab43:
! 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
