Bug Description
Filing this separately from bug 1902937, though they ultimately are both addressing a lot of the same items.
Equinox has been contracted by PaILS to produce a generic plugin for Quipu's eCard and eRenew services. Our intent is to create a plugin that builds on existing work but is intended for general use against a stock Evergreen system.
The work will include the following:
-- Support for allowing Quipu to supply statistical category values and survey responses
-- Support for specifying various settings per library, including:
-- barcode generation rules
-- patron profiles to apply duration creation, verification, and renewal
-- Supplying options to enable or disable new account verification
-- Supplying options for parameters governing whether a card is eligible for eRenew
-- Database tables and columns to track the history of a patron record as it gets created or modified via Quipu
-- Addition of a field in the Evergreen database and Patron Registration interface to accept Parent / Guardian email addresses
-- Documentation of the new feature submitted to the Evergreen community documentation repository
We are grateful for the assistance of Robert Anderson at Quipu in creating this plugin.
A public branch will be posted following partner testing.
