How to add a file to a patron account
It is possible to attach files to patron accounts that can then be accessed by staff members.
Step 1 - Enable the functionality
Go to KOHA administration > Global System Preferences and search for EnableBorrowerFiles.
This will bring you to a system preference of the same name.
Step 2 - Navigate to a patron account
Use the patron search option to navigate to the patron account to add a new file to.
On the left hand side of the patron account screen there will be several tabs. Click on the tab called Files.
This will take you to a new screen where files already attached to the patron account can be viewed or new ones can be added.
To upload the new file, add a description in the Description box and use the Choose file button to select a file from your device to upload. Once the Description field has been filled in and the file has been added, click Upload file.
To view the loaded file click the link under the Name column and a copy will be downloaded to your device
