5.2.2 patch release delivers fixes to the Amlib 5.2 Client, for the following issues:
- Circulation –
Chute returns reservation count.
Fixes the problem where in Chute returns the incorrect Item is showing as reserved. The previous item returned is given a “Rsv Count” figure of ‘1’. When rescanning this item it reverts back to ‘0’. - Acquisitions – Financials.
Commitments
Improvements to the checking and clearing of commitments when invoices are processed.
Note: A separate email will be sent out soon about checking commitments prior to running the end of financial year process.
NOTE: This new patch cumulates these 5.2.2 patches as well as those delivered (on 14 April) in 5.2.1 for the Amlib Client.
Reminder: Fixed previously in 5.2.1 patch for Amlib 5.2 Client, were the following issues:
- Borrower Import – SQL error when performing Borrower Import
- Catalogue module - worksheet display issue when inserting MARC tag
- Circulation module - receipt printing screen displays warning about margin error caused by some printer drivers
