[Koha-devel] New Feature planned : Automatically adding/linking authorities when creating biblios

[Henri-Damien LAURENT]

Hi there,
We are planning to add a new feature with a new System preference
(BiblioAddsAuthorities).
When set to One,
in addbiblio.pl
when saving a new biblio, or modifying one,
For each used field linked to an authority,
  unless there is already a $3 or a $9, we search authorities for a
similar one (same subfields).
  If found, we add a $9 to the first authority number (supposed to be
stored in 001 field) (or maybe we should display all results to select
the   authority to link to ?)
  Else,
    we create a new authority of the type linked to current biblio
field, so that heading contains all subfields of the current biblio field
    We add a $9 to that biblio field which points to authid.
  End
End

Comments and remarks welcome.
