webv:Repeated Library name in Titles list after remote search
- Article Type: General
- Product: Voyager
- Product Version: 8.1.1
Description:
Bug Report Form for Issue 16384-7202
Module(s): WebVoyage
Server platform(s) affected: Solaris
Browser & version (if applicable): IE 7, FF2
Release(s) replicated in: Voy 7.1.0
Last version without bug (if applicable): 6.5.4
Expected results:
Titles list after remote search should show the database name once per title.
Actual results:
Titles list after remote search displays the database 3 times per title.
Workflow implications: The database name pulls from two different places (SysAdmin and webvoyage.properties), thus making the results confusing to patrons.
Replication steps:
1. On the basic search page, select Change next to database name.
2. Select at least one remote database to search.
3. Perform search.
4. Results list will display Database name 3 times in addition to the columns selected for the search results in SysAdmin. For example, where the results are set to display Full Title, Author and Format, a title in the Remote Search results displays:
Full Title
Author
Database NAME as entered in SysAdmin>Search>Database Definitions>Name
Bib Format (doesn’t always work: see related issue 16384-7153)
Call number, Database NAME set in webvoyage.properties
item status, Locaton
Database NAME set in webvoyage.properties
Other information: The above happens even when displaying a result from the local database in the case of a Simul Search. Performing the same search in the local database only displays the following in results:
Full Title
Author
Bib Format
Call Number
Item Status, Location
Resolution:
Fixed in Circulation and OPAC for 8.1.1.
