Hi, all.
We have a situation where we want to attach a free-text note to a copy (really 
to a check-out transaction, but the copy will suffice) when  the staff is 
needing to override a checkout block (in our particular case, because they're 
checking out a reference book), such that that note will be seen at the time 
the item is checked in.
 
I really don't want the staff dragged through the entire screen for editing the 
whole copy record in order to do edit the "Alert Message" field, as that 
sequence introduces chances for some other setting to get changed accidently.
 
My first thought is that I'd like to add to the "Override Checkout Failure" 
dialogue box, right below the No/Yes buttons, a text entry box for the "Alert 
Message" for the copy.
Has anyone already done this?
 
Or is there some other way to accomplish this goal?
 
Thanks!
 
Melissa
