            Bug ID: 41850
           Summary: Allow to choose message type for CheckPrevCheckout
   Initiative type: ---
        Sponsorship ---
            status:
           Product: Koha
           Version: Main

                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: Circulation

Currently, if the staff member doesn't have the force_checkout permission, the
CheckPrevCheckout parameter is enabled, and the patron already checked out the
title in the past, the checkout is blocked and the staff member cannot proceed.

It would be great if libraries could choose if CheckPrevCheckout is a blocking
warning or a simple message. 

I've had this comment from a library where the librarian doesn't want the
circulation staff to be able to override checkouts to patrons with unpaid fines
over noissuescharge for example, but still wants them to be able to check out
previously checked out items. 

I was thinking maybe a system preference to choose the type of message (warning
= yellow with confirmation button; or message = blue without confirmation). I'm
not sure if most libraries use CheckPrevCheckout as a blocking mechanism for
checkouts like noissuescharge or age restriction that actually need a
confirmation, or rather a more informative message.
