--- Comment #8 from Katrin Fischer <[email protected]> --- Ok, I will hold off providing the follow-up for now, because I think we should discuss the concept first: To me, this feels not right on patron category level, I feel like it should be in in the circulation rules instead. So I did some research: 1) There are patches to move ExpireReservesMaxPickUpDelayCharge to circulation rules, which would fit well together with the pickup delay: * bug 25711 - ExpireReservesMaxPickUpDelayCharge (NSO) 2) There have been several bugs filed in present and past about moving the pickup delay to the circulation rules: * bug 19309 - ReservesMaxPickUpDelay (marked duplicate) Which argues: Some libraries would love to have the option to specify the ReservesMaxPickUpDelay by itemtype, rather than specify the ReservesMaxPickUpDelay for all items via the system preference. There are times when specific item types like popular or new items, DVD's or even Museum passes may not want to sit on a shelf for 7 days waiting for the patron to pick it up. Versus a non popular item that can wait for 7 days for the patron to pick the item up. A use case I'd add is academic libraries with closed stacks where you might want to give a longer pickup-period before you return the items to the shelf. And actually we have a competing bug with patches! * bug 8367 - How long is a hold waiting for pickup at a more granular level (FQA) I'd love if we could push the solution on bug 8367 instead of the patron category based solution. We could say: we can do that later... BUT: there is no migration path. If we start with category level, we won't be able to populate values in the circulation rules later because of the * (all) rules. So I think this would be an argument for going circulation rules right away. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-bugs website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha-community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/
