Summary: Checkout limit by patron category for all libraries
Severity: enhancement
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: kyle.m.hall at gmail.com
Hardware: All
Status: NEW
Version: master
Component: Circulation
Product: Koha
We have a patron category Temporary Adult WTMP. Under "Checkout limit by patron
category for all libraries" the limit is set to 5. This limit is not working. I
was able to check out 7 items to Robert Harper (24388200094358)in the WTMP
category
Here is what is going on. We have the system preference CircControl set to "Use
the checkout and fines rules of *the library where the item is from*". we also
have this limit set to 5. So what Koha is doing, is comparing the limit to the
number of checkouts of items the borrower has *from the same home library as
that item*.
If the item's home library is LibA, and the borrower has 4 items checked out
whose home library is LibA, than the item will be checked out ( regardless of
how many items are checked out ). If the borrower has 5 items checked out whose
home library is LibA, Koha will indeed warn of too many checkouts.
This does not seem intuitive. Is there any way to globally limit the number if
checkouts a borrower can have by patron category?
