Hi Sonia, I am not sure if you have received an answer yet, so I'll try:
Holds allowed (total): Number of holds allowed for this library - itemtype - patron category combination at the same time. The holds can be item or record level on different records. Holds allowed (daily): Same as above, but as a daily limit. Like: only allow placing 5 holds/day (see bug 15486). Holds per record (count): Number of ITEM LEVEL holds that a patron can be place on the SAME record at a time. Useful for serials for example where every item is another volume or issue (see bug 14695). It looks like in staff that also limits record level holds. There is bug 15565 pending sign-off to allow this for the OPAC as well. maxreserves is the total total, similar to MaxFine. The maximum number of holds allowed for a patron independent of the other rules. I haven't tested it out fully, so maybe someone can weigh in how the count is done exactly. But I think it for the counts it doesn't matter if record or item level holds. Hope it helps, Katrin On 17.01.19 09:36, BOUIS Sonia wrote:
Hello, I want to be sure to understand properly the circulation rules because I haven't found the complete information in the manual (perhaps, I haven't looked at the good place?) In the first table of the "Circulation and fines rules" page, we can find this three column: Holds allowed (total) Holds allowed (daily) Holds per record (count) Holds allowed (total): does it mean the maximum of items that could be reserved for an itemtype / patron category at once? Holds allowed (daily): does it mean the number of items that could be reserved per day for an itemtype / patron category? Holds per record (count) : does it mean the maximum of records that could be reserved for an itemtype / patron category at once? What the syspref maxreserves is about ? items or records? If patrons try to reserve several itemtype and the total of reservation of each itemtype is bigger than the maxreserves syspref, would they be blocked when they will reach the number of holds put in the syspref? In the table of the circulation rules : "Default checkout, hold and return policy", does the column "Maximum total holds allowed (count)" concern items or records? In the table "Checkout, hold policy by patron category", it's possible to put a limit of holds by category type : is it the number of records or items? Does Koha always use the lower of the limits for each settings usable?
