I have found the feature, converting overdue items to lost, listed on open-ils.org under New Back-End/Admin Features in 1.6.0.0. It is called: Auto-marking items as lost after specific overdue period. What are the characteristics of this feature or where can I find this information?

This is a standard ILS feature. How does it function in Evergreen? Does it follow the following design: http://www.prlib.org/Blog/OverdueToLost.JPG Does it have alternative ways of handling the Lost item charge? Has the feature been deployed by any consortiums? Problems? Issues? Thanks for any info George Tuttle Computer Services Librarian Piedmont Regional Library System 770-867-2762 x103 770-891-0654 (cell) 770-867-7483 (fax) [email protected]
