Since some libraries allow holds on acquisition items with "on order" status, will that status be configurable to allow holds?

The default workflow would be to move the copies from On Order to In Process, but I don't see any reason we couldn't make that configurable for the case where you get your items in a shelf-ready form. They could go directly from On Order to Available. In any case, all of the statuses mentioned here are OPAC Visible out of the box, and would show up in the OPAC by default. -- Mike Rylander | VP, Research and Design | Equinox Software, Inc. / The Evergreen Experts | phone: 1-877-OPEN-ILS (673-6457) | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | web: http://www.esilibrary.com
