I don't know what you mean by "staff hold" flag, honestly, because I
don't know of any such flag.
Staff-placed holds can be identified by "the usr is not the requestor".
The usr field is who the hold was placed for. The requestor is who
placed the hold. If they are the same then the user placed it for
themselves, otherwise it was placed by staff for the user.
I don't think there is currently a reporting source for determining
user compared to staff placed within Evergreen itself, though.

Hello,
I am hoping that someone may be able to help me with this. One of
our customers needs to be able to distinguish between holds placed
via the opac and holds placed by library staff.
We have spent considerable time looking at options within reports
but so far not having much success.
We have identified the 'staff hold' flag in the hold record but you
don't seem to be able to select upon this in the reports.
This is a requirement for public libraries in the UK so the issue is
going to become increasingly more important as more UK libraries
start working with Evergreen.
Has anyone managed to find a way of reporting on this?
Many thanks in advance for any help..............
Fiona
