Re: [Koha] Implementation of Hourly Loans RFC

Hi,

I am not sure if someone is planning to implement the full specification
as written on the wiki, but there is some work in progress on taking
opening hours of the library into account:

Bug 8133 - hourly loans doesn't know when library closed

Re: [Koha] Implementation of Hourly Loans RFC

2014-08-04 Thread amutsikiwa
Hi

 

  I am aware of the presence of hourly loan. However, it is the advanced 
features  such as 

 (1)  options for rounding 

1.  do not round (exact) 
2.  next 5 minute increment 
3.  next 10 minute increment 
4.  next 15 minute increment 
5.  next half hour 
6.  next hour 
7.  next end of day (closing time) 
8.  next beginning of day (opening time) 

 

policy for  handling

1.  due at the library’s closing 
2.  due at the library’s next opening 
3.  due at the library’s next opening plus however long the due time 
occurred after the previous closing (i.e. pause the loan period while the 
library is closed) 
4.   due at the library’s next opening plus a fixed time

For now I think hourly loan are computed on 24-hour day, whereas I have items 
that allow for hourly loan from 10:00 to 14:00 hours and then overnight 
borrowing till the following day  at 09:00 , an  hour after the library opens. 
I am having challenges implementing the policy and I am running 3.116.1 

 

Regards,

 

Admire Mutsikiwa
