Bug ID: 27464
Summary: Extend functionality of AllowHoldsPolicyOverride to
prevent some overrides
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: 19.05
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low
Component: Hold requests

If one tries to create a "local use only" item type, there isn't a good way to
make it impossible to place holds for anywhere other than its home branch.
Setting restrictions on it in Circ rules allows any staff member with
permissions to override the hold restrictions.
Another option is setting an item to a lost status, but this is certainly not
ideal: it clears the status every time the item is scanned, and it affects how
it appears in the OPAC.
What if there were a way to have finer control over the
AllowHoldsPolicyOverride system preference? For instance, allow hold overrides
as a separate permission for overriding circulation rules vs. overriding patron
restrictions. It seems logical that overriding a restriction to check out to a
patron is quite a bit different from ignoring specific circulation rules (if
that makes sense).
Perhaps another way to work around this would be a checkbox in the circulation
rules with an option to "Ignore staff overrides" or something similar? It could
be turned on or off for each individual circulation rule.
