Hi Tony,

I would say question 2 depends on how you identify your on-order materials. If you are using the "On Order" status for these materials, then you will need to configure the copy status to be holdable via Admin -> Server Administration -> Copy Statuses. However, if you are also using an On Order copy location as some of our Evergreen sites do, then you'll need to make sure the copy location is holdable as well.

Hello everyone,

Recently I've been troubleshooting some holds questions for some of the libraries in our consortium and ran across something I'm not quite sure about. Does anyone know if Is there a way to view fulfilled holds on a title or holds that a patron had previously placed---like a holds history?

Also, as a follow-up: Is it possible to place a "hold" on a book that's on order? I saw this on the list:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.education.libraries.open-ils.general/8830/match=holds+order

It mentioned: "...We can, of course, just turn on the setting so that patrons can place holds on 'On Order' items."

Does anyone know where in the system options this is?

Thanks in advance for any help or thoughts you can provide.....
