--- Comment #9 from Galen Charlton <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #1) > This should be controlled via a syspref ala the Allow*Override system > preferences. This comment isn't about the proposed patch per se, just inspired by it. Doing it via syspref, while consistent with precedent (OverduesBlockCirc, AllFinesNeedOverride, AllowNotForLoanOverride, AgeRestrictionOverride, etc.), bothers me. The ability to override isn't necessarily just a matter of library policy; it also ought to be a matter of staff permission. The problem with using sysprefs is that they're too broad. As the original bug reporter implies, you don't necessarily want ordinary circ clerks to be able to override the limit, but you probably do want circ supervisors to be able to do so; consider the usual "library board member is standing in front of you wanting to check out just one more book" scenario. If we pursue creating staff user permissions for overrides, how do folks think they should work? Replace the system preference? Work in conjunction with the syspref? As I said, this comment isn't about the proposed patch, which is consistent with how things have been handled in the past. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://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/
