Hi Christine,
Is Santa Cruz using acquisitions?
We used to have a problem where staff would use a workflow where they
would receive an item as part of the invoicing process, which often
happens after the item had already been put on the shelf or even checked
out to a patron. The receive action would then automatically change the
status of the copy back to "in process," which makes sense when the copy
was previously in an "on order" status, but doesn't make sense when the
item has already been processed.
A fix has been applied, but it looks like it wasn't added until 2.3.1,
so you probably don't have the fix on your local system yet.

I'm not sure why a status would be reverting to "on order," though.

Hi All,
Santa Cruz Public Library is operating on version 2.3.0 of the EG ils.
We have a recurring problem that seems to have come to everyone's
attention in the last month or so; items that have statuses such as
"checked out" or available have seemingly had these item statuses
spontaneously changed to "in process" or "on order". In some cases,
they have remained checked out to patrons while the status shows as
one of these.
Obviously we are pursuing this internally and through posting for
Equinox, but we'd like to know; is anyone else on the same version
having a similar experience?
Thanks,
Christine Campbell
