So, I am new to how Evergreen does the overdue notices and I think I
understand a little bit how the action triggers work. Question is, how do I
set up the trigger to repeat the notice every other day?? I want notices to
go out the first day an item is overdue and then two days later and so forth.
Is that possible? If so, what do I change in the settings? Or will
notices just repeat every day an item is overdue? That is ok too, but I
would prefer not.
Most likely, you would want to create separate action triggers for different
notice intervals. 1-day and 3-day overdue notices would be separate action
triggers.
There exists a new feature of repeatability delay for action triggers. It was
intended to address the issue of not being able to repeat patron card
expiration notices. I personally have not experimented with using the
repeatability delay for any types of triggers other than the patron card
expiration. It required some polishing to get working. (Section 2.2.7 on
http://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_5.html#_administration).
And what about fines? We would like to set up fine notices. I am not
sure what settings to put into place for that. Anyone have any templates to
share or something? Is there some kind of standard settings for this?
Maybe there is another place where this information is available in
documentation, but if you haven’t seen it, take a look at sections 2.4.6-2.4.8
of Evergreen 2.5 release notes:
http://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_5.html#_circulation_2.
Perhaps those release notes could help with what you’re trying to get
accomplished.
