Wishlist: Move strict barcode checkbox

[Elizabeth Thomsen]

I think it would be easier for circulation staff to keep track of whether or not the Strict Barcode option is checked if it were relocated to the be directly under or next to the barcode box on both the Checkout and Checkin screens. In both cases, it's located below the grid of items in busy areas of the screen with other options that (mostly) refer to receipts and completing the transaction.

Fairly straightforward fix here. Just moved some html around. This is my first commit to Evergreen.

I have pushed a branch to https://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=working/Evergreen.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/collab/dyrcona/LP1990968_move_strict_barcode_checkbox_signoff that includes my sign-off on Scott's commit and an additional commit to move the strict barcode checkbox for the Angular staff client interfaces.

I pushed a collab branch to the working repository that can make testing the Angular/eg2 changes easier. The branch presently has one commit that modifies the Circulation menu entries for Checkout, Checking, and Renew Items to go to the Angular client instead of AngularJS.

If you use this branch for testing, be sure NOT to push the change to master or other branches.

Tested on bug squashing server and I see no change to where the Strict Barcode box is located in angularjs or angular.

Testing on https://bugsquash.mobiusconsortium.org/eg2/en-US/staff and I don't see any difference in the location of Strict Barcode in either the Check In or Patron > Check Out interfaces.

Susan,

That was my fault. I didn't actually apply the patch to the server. I applied the patch from comment 4 and didn't realize that this wasn't the patch for this bug. (I didn't read very carefully). I've now applied the patch properly now! Please retest.

[Jennifer Pringle (jpringle-u)]

I now see the strict barcode checkbox beside the barcode field in the angular Check In and Check Out; however, the strict barcode checkbox hasn't moved in the angularjs Check In and Check Out.

Looking at the new position in the angular interfaces I'm undecided as to whether this will make things easier or whether staff will be more likely to check the box by accident since it's more prominent.

I've created a new bug report for a wishlist to have an option to hide the checkbox altogether on a per library basis. (I think we've only ever had libraries use it by accident.) https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/2008834

[Jason Stephenson (jstephenson)]

Jennifer, did you clear cache and hard reload when testing AngularJS the second time? I ask because the AngularJS change worked for me before I signed off on it. Something may have changed in the meantime...

[Brett French (bsfrench)]

Tested on https://bugsquash.mobiusconsortium.org/eg/staff and everything looks good as far as I can tell. Strict Barcode checkbox is appearing below the barcode field on the checkout, checkin, and renew items screens.

I have tested this code and consent to signing off on it with my name, Elizabeth Thomsen, and my email address, <email address hidden>.

Pushed for inclusion in 3.11. Thanks, Scott, Jason, Brett, and Elizabeth!
