           Summary: Recalls can inadvertently extend the due date
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: 22.05

If an item is due sooner than the recall due date interval then placing a
recall on it can inadvertently extend the book's due date, possibly causing the
recalling patron to receive the item later than they would otherwise.

To recreate the issue:

- turn on recalls with UseRecalls and scaffold out the minimal circulation
rules needed to use the feature
- set the recall due date interval to 7 days or any other arbitrary period
- check out an item to one patron & set the due date to be before the recall
due date interval will have elapsed (e.g. the next day)
- as a second patron, place a recall on the item in question

Actual behavior: the item's due date is extended to the current date plus the
recalls due date interval.

Desired behavior: the item's due date should stay the same so the recalling
patron doesn't face an additional delay in obtaining it. The logic is that the
new due date should be either the existing due date or the current date plus
the recall due date interval, whichever is sooner.
