Known Issue: Return All feature
From a patron’s Detail page (illustration from my account below), there appears to be a way to return a mass of items without using the barcode scanner – you check the box and hit the “Return checked items” button. This would be great…IF IT WORKED properly.
Unfortunately, if one of those items you’ve returned without using the scanner happens to be on hold for another patron or belongs at a different library, Koha DOES NOT tell you that. You have to scan the barcode in the Check In module to activate or trigger a hold or transfer/transit from one library to another.
So, for now…please don’t use this feature. We are reporting this bug to LibLime today.
