Hello. There is a self-checkout setting called "Selfcheck override events list” described as “List of checkout/renewal events that the selfcheck interface should automatically override instead instead of alerting and stopping the transaction”.
Events are PERM_FAILURE, PATRON_EXCEEDS_OVERDUE_COUNT, PATRON_BARRED, CIRC_EXCEEDS_COPY_RANGE, PATRON_ACCOUNT_EXPIRED, ITEM_DEPOSIT_REQUIRED, ITEM_RENTAL_FEE_REQUIRED, ITEM_DEPOSIT_PAID, PATRON_EXCEEDS_LOST_COUNT, ACTION_CIRCULATION_NOT_FOUND, PATRON_EXCEEDS_CHECKOUT_COUNT, COPY_CIRC_NOT_ALLOWED, COPY_NOT_AVAILABLE, COPY_IS_REFERENCE, COPY_NEEDED_FOR_HOLD, MAX_RENEWALS_REACHED, CIRC_CLAIMS_RETURNED, COPY_ALERT_MESSAGE, PATRON_EXCEEDS_FINES and maybe others. The last bit of the description “… instead of alerting and stopping the transaction” makes it sound like the setting would allow the transaction to proceed if the event was added to the “Selfcheck override event list”. In testing, however, only the alert message was suppressed, but the transaction still failed due to the said event. I am curious if somebody could clarify if this was the intended behavior? Or what am I missing? Thanks. Aleksey Lazar IS Developer and Integrator - PALS http://www.mnpals.org/
