Hello all,

We have been trying to add complexity to our hold policy configuration for a 
couple of weeks now without luck.  What we would like to see is the following:

Most patron groups are limited to placing a maximum of 15 holds.  Staff are 
unable to place unlimited holds FOR patrons.
Some patron groups are exempt from the 15-hold policy (either unlimited or a 
higher limit).  Staff would still be able to place unlimited holds for these 
groups.

We had the 15-hold maximum working for the necessary patron groups in 1.6, 
though we are now on 2.0.6.  How do we add in the staff exceptions?  There is a 
"requestor" and a "user" - for the staff exceptions, which one should be set as 
"staff" and which one should be set as the patron group?  I have tried both and 
can't seem to create the rule and exception - I either get 100% unlimited holds 
(patron-placed and staff-placed) or get the 15 hold limit for both staff- and 
patron-placed holds.

Does anyone have similar hold policies working correctly?  How do you have them 
set?

Thanks!
Jenny
