I believe some patron-oriented permissions will auto-override, but it won't remember secondary authentication to do so. So if you have the override permissions already some of the overrides should be able to be remembered for that session.
The person doing the checkouts not having permission would be more of an issue, but using "Operator Change" to switch to the higher permission person could alleviate the repeated password entries at least.

An example would be PATRON_EXCEEDS_FINES. In our system, if someone with low permissions is logged in, the override must be entered for each item which can be burdensome if there are a large number of items. If someone with higher permissions is logged in, Force This Action must be clicked off for each item. Can Evergreen 2.9 be configured so that, once the override is entered once, it is in effect for the rest of the checkouts? Or once Force This Action is clicked, it does not need to be repeated for the rest of the checkouts? Or would this require development?
