In this first evaluation, some fields of the suggestions database were corrected. This database is responsible for storing the acquisition requests for the collection.
This module is composed by 3 databases and all of them will be reviewed in the next commits:
providers
purchaseorder
suggestions
These databases should exchange information with each other, but so far the fields are not perfectly interlinked.
Input type number
To improve the filling of numeric fields, avoiding errors or typing of another type of data the field type "number'" was inserted in the FDT
Bases.dat
It was put the prefix "Circ" and "Acq" in the databases name and grouped in the databases list.
The reason is to signal to the users which are the system databases, i.e. not bibliographic. The wrong handling of the structure of these databases can make it impossible to use some modules such as acquisition, for example.
