Negative current short loan counters preventing deletion of patron records
- Article Type: General
- Product: Voyager
- Product Version: 8.1.1
Description:
Bug Report Form for Issue 16384-15953
Module(s): Circulation, circjob
Server platform(s) affected: Solaris
Expected results:
Short loan counters should not be negative numbers.
Actual results:
Customer sites have a recurring problem where the CURRENT_SHORT_LOANS counter has negative values.
Workflow implications: Patrons with negative counters cannot be deleted.
Replication steps:
In the customer database, run the following query:
select patron_id, current_short_loans, unclaimed_short_loans from patron where current_short_loans < 0;
Other information: Support cannot replicate this behavior, but it continually happens at the customer site where this is reported.
Resolution:
Fixed in Voyager 8.1.1, due out Q1 2012.
