English Actions
Adding new authorized value categories
In addition to the existing categories that come by default with Koha, librarians can add their own authorized value categories to control data that is entered into the system.
To add a new category:
Click 'New category'
|addauthcat|
Category: enter the category code for the new category. Limit your category code to 32 characters (something short to make it clear what the category is for).
A category code cannot contain spaces or special characters other than underscores and hyphens.
Restrict value to numbers only: check the box if the values in this category should be numerical only. This will prevent staff from creating authorized values that don't comply to this rule.
Click 'Save'
|authvalemptycat|
Proceed to :ref:`add a new authorized value to the category <add-new-authorized-value-label>`.
Adding new authorized values
New authorized values can be added to any existing or new category.
To add a value:
From the categories list, click the 'Add' button on the right of the category
Alternatively, click on the category name, and then click 'New authorized value for ...'
If the category has no values yet, click on the 'Add a new authorized value' button at the bottom of the page
|newauthvalue|
Authorized value: enter a code for your authorized value
Authorized value is limited to 80 characters and cannot have spaces or special characters other than underscores and hyphens in it.
Some categories, such as :ref:`SUGGEST\_STATUS <suggeststatus-av-category-label>`, may have stricter limits. Refer to the :ref:`existing authorized values categories <existing-values-label>` section above for specified limits.
Description: use this field for the actual value that will be displayed.
Description (OPAC): if you want a different description to show in the OPAC, enter it here. If this field is empty, the 'Description' will be used in both the staff interface and the OPAC.
Library limitations: if you would like to limit this authorized value to only specific libraries, you can choose them from this menu. To have it available to all libraries just choose 'All libraries' at the top of the list.
Choose an icon: you can choose an image that will appear next to the value in the staff interface and OPAC.
This feature doesn't work everywhere. It's mostly for item locations (LOC) and collections (CCODE) in the advanced search.
The new value will appear in the list along with existing values
Deleting authorized values
To delete an authorized value, click on the 'Delete' button at the right of the authorized value.
Once there are no authorized values left in an authorized value category, you can delete the category.
