Inventory feature assists the libraries in stock taking. After the inventory process over, the library gets a picture of missing books. Here are the steps to initiate stocktaking with Koha.
Prepare text file of barcodes
Prepare a text file of barcodes (accession number) either using barcode scanner visiting shelves. Otherwise, prepare the text file with barcodes manually. If you have collected the barcodes in other formats like a spreadsheet, copy it into the text file.
Inventory process
Visit the Tools > Inventory and upload the text file.
Check Export to CSV file box to generate the result in a CSV file. Click on Submit button to start the inventory process with Koha. The CSV file will be downloaded to the computer.
Open the CSV file. Inventory report with missing documents information available in the CSV file
Note: Increase request time out in Apache, if error message appears on Koha screen after uploading a text file. Here is the solution.
