Hi, I don't think this functionality exists - one can't choose a rule at checkout time, you can only do combinations of item type, patron category, and branch.
The only way I can think of to hack around this, is to define two item types, Short Loan 2 and Short Loan 24, and manually assign the item being checked out to that item type before issuing it. Doing what you are asking, or streamlining my workaround, would both be developments. Liz On 22/11/13 10:06, Chrispin Simasiku Sitali wrote: > Thanks. The question still remains.
