From YouTube: Relative's Checkouts in the Koha OPAC
Description
In 16.05 and future releases you now have the option to set up visibility of relative’s checkouts in the Koha OPAC. There are 2 new system preferences that tie into this option.
A
Hello,
my
name
is
Jessica's
arrow
and
I'm,
one
of
the
educators
here
at
Bywater
solution.
In
today's
session
we
are
going
to
show
you
relatives
check
outs
in
the
koha
Oh
pack
in
1605
and
future
releases.
You
will
now
be
able
to
have
the
option
to
set
both
the
guarantor
and
guarantees
options
to
see
the
relatives
check
out
in
the
OPAC.
So,
let's
take
a
look
at
the
guarantors
account.
First,
let's
pull
up
Jones
account
and
take
a
look
at
her
guarantee
that
is
connected
under
details.
A
We
have
Jones
child
who
is
listed
as
azalea
azalea's
account
now
has
the
option
when
creating
it
to
set
up
if
the
guarantor
can
see
the
check
outs.
So
now,
when
you're
creating
a
child,
you
have
the
option
to
show
check
outs
to
the
guarantor.
You
either
have
the
drop
down
for
yes
or
no,
once
you
have
that
set
when
you
log
into
the
OPAC
you'll,
be
able
to
view
the
checkouts
of
the
guarantee
now
there's
two
system
preferences
that
tie
into
this.
A
So
let's
take
a
look
at
those
first,
you
have
two
new
system
preferences.
The
first
is
for
your
opak
preferences
and
that's
going
to
be
allow
patron
to
set
checkout
visibility
for
guarantor,
so
you
can
either
allow
or
don't
allow
patrons
to
choose
their
own
privacy
settings
for
showing
the
patrons
checkouts
to
the
patrons
guarantor.
A
The
second
one
is
for
the
patron
preferences,
and
that
is
to
allow
staff
to
set
checkout
Phil's
ability
for
the
guarantor,
and
that
again
is
going
to
be
either
allow
or
don't
allow
staff
to
set
the
ability
for
the
patrons
checkouts
to
be
viewed
by
linked
patrons
in
the
OPAC.
Now
once
you
have
both
of
those
set.
Let's
take
a
look
at
what
it
looks
like
now
in
the
pack
now
I'm
gonna
come
over
here
and
login
as
Joan,
who
is
the
guarantor
of
azalea
the
guarantee
in
the
OPAC
when
I
log
into
Joan's
account.
A
I
can
now
see
my
personal
checked
out
items
and
you'll
notice.
Now
we
have
a
relative's
checkouts
tab
that
will
show
me
the
check
out
that
they
have
for
that
item.
The
due
date,
the
barcode
and
then
you'll
notice
down
below
I,
can
now
see
the
daughter
that
is
connected
to
Joan.
So
I
can
see
azalea
Howells
checkout.
A
So
now
we
have
a
tab
similar
to
what
we
have
in
the
staff
client,
where
it
says
relative's
checkouts.
We
can
now
see
that
in
the
OPAC
okay,
now
I'm
going
to
come
back
to
the
beginning
and
I'm
going
to
log
out
as
Joan
and
let's
log
in
as
the
guaranty,
so
I'm
gonna
come
over
here
and
will
log
in
as
now
the
child.
A
So
now,
when
we
log
out-
and
we
log
in
as
azalea
who
is
the
child
you'll
notice,
we
don't
have
a
relative's
checkouts
tab
here
for
the
mom.
But
if
we
come
down
to
privacy
and
if
you're
again,
your
system,
preference
is
set
to
allow
you'll
notice
that
now
we
have
under
privacy
management
before
where
we
could
choose
your
privacy
rule.
A
So
those
are
the
two
nice
options
that
you
have
in
the
OPAC.
Now
just
a
quick
review,
let's
jump
back
and
to
walk
through
the
process
again.
So
if
we
were
connecting
another
child
to
Joan's
account
when
we
select
add
child
you'll
notice
that
when
we
come
down
here,
we
have
one
more
new
option
down
below
that
says:
show
checkouts
guarantor,
and
then
we
have
that
yes
or
no
option,
so
just
some
nice
options
now
in
1605
and
moving
forward
that
allows
you
to
connect
the
guarantor
and
guarantees
check
outs
in
the
system.
