Hi Sonia, yes, item due notices are sent out on the due date - so not the same as overdue notices, only an additional reminder for the patron to return the book.
You can set up overdue notices under tools > overdue notice/status triggers. Next step then is setting up a cronjob for overdue_notices.pl. There are lots of options for that script. If you want it to use the notice triggers you have defined in Koha you have to use -t. Overdue_noties.pl generates the messages and writes them into your message_queue table, process_message_queue.pl is needed to send them to the patrons. Hope that helps, Katrin -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [email protected] im Auftrag von Sonia P.

I just realised one thing... "item due" in the default messaging preferences of a patron category is NOT about overdue items, is it? I didn't realise it was two different things. So there is nothing to do in the messaging preferences to enable overdue items notices... ? If I run a SQL query on the database, I can see that some people have a "1" set for overduenoticerequired, which is good, but then I really don't know why they don't receive it...
