            Bug ID: 31235
           Summary: UseDaysMode is used for calculating the expiration
                    date for waiting holds
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: Circulation
          Assignee: [email protected]

This is also a confusing one: The UseDaysMode system preference, that can also
be set in the circulation rules is described as:

... when calculating the date due. 

BUT: In set_waiting it's also used to calculate the expiration date for holds:

    my $max_pickup_delay = C4::Context->preference("ReservesMaxPickUpDelay");
    my $cancel_on_holidays =
C4::Context->preference('ExpireReservesOnHolidays');

    my $expirationdate = $today->clone;
    $expirationdate->add(days => $max_pickup_delay);

    if ( C4::Context->preference("ExcludeHolidaysFromMaxPickUpDelay") ) {
        my $itemtype = $self->item ? $self->item->effective_itemtype :
$self->biblio->itemtype;
        my $daysmode = Koha::CirculationRules->get_effective_daysmode(
            {
                categorycode => $self->borrower->categorycode,
                itemtype     => $itemtype,
                branchcode   => $self->branchcode,
            }
        );
        my $calendar = Koha::Calendar->new( branchcode => $self->branchcode,
days_mode => $daysmode );

        $expirationdate = $calendar->days_forward( dt_from_string(),
$max_pickup_delay );
    }

I feel like this is quite odd as you can set ExcludeHolidaysFromMaxPickUpDelay
to ignore the calendar (and then it will be ignored). 

But if you set it to use the calendar, it can still be ignored when the
UseDaysMode setting is set to ignore calendar. So it should probably be:

Ignore the calendar | Use UseDaysMode setting ...

If asked previously, I'd have said don't make this rely on UseDaysMode and just
use calendar or not.
