Also see the full 1.4.0.6 release notes

  • SlimPAC: Under uncommon circumstances, searches could ignore the requested search type (such as title or author) and always use keyword. Now subject, author, title, and keyword searches behave properly.
  • Closed Dates Editor (Staff Client, Local Admin): Dates did not always display, or displayed incorrectly.
  • Hold Shelf display (Staff Client, Circulation): If only one hold was on the hold shelf, it would not display.
  • Force This Action override (Staff Client, Circulation): Previously, multiple events tied to one item could not be overridden in one step.
  • Copy Details (OPAC): Copy information displayed incorrectly if organizational hierarchy was more than three levels deep. (Patch from James Fournie / SITKA).
  • Offline/Standalone Client: Transaction list would not clear unless the transactions were printed.
  • Hold Targeter: Enhancement to the holds targeter to make it more efficient and reduce load.
  • Spine Labels (Staff Client, Cataloging): The top margin of the first label was misaligned by a small amount.
  • Spine Labels (Staff Client, Cataloging): In item add, there was database lag time affecting label printing.
  • Authority Record Import (Staff Client, Z39.50 Importer): Authority record import not functioning correctly.
  • Patron Holds (Staff Client, Circulation): Displaying patron’s holds showed all the holds they had ever placed, whether active or not.
  • Z39.50 Client (Staff Client): When searching multiple sources, the display rendering could become unreadable.
  • Renewing Checkouts (Staff Client, Circulation): Critical fix for issues surrounding staff renewing multiple items for a patron.
