Katrin's example scenario correctly describes the current behavior (based on what they've got ReservesControl set to). There's nothing in the circ rules that can accomplish exactly what MaxReserves does and I hate to remove that functionality, even though it is confusing. For what it's worth, I get libraries asking for more functionality along the lines of what MaxReserves does -- they want to be able to set global limits irrespective of library and define things like "Patrons in Category A can have a total of 50 holds across all branches." As Koha stands now, that sort of rule may or may not be possible based on ReservesControl and other rules. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
