--- Comment #1 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer at bsz-bw.de> ---
The mailing list is usually a good starting point to discuss workflows like
this. I think we might already have what you need, maybe:

If you are using self checks that communicate via SIP2 there is the
HoldsNeedProcessingSIP system preference. If activated, holds returned at the
self check will not immediately be set to waiting, but remain in a processing
status that you can use to find them via a report. The JSON API for reports can
then be used with a little jQuery to display the number of holds in this status
anywhere you want in Koha basically. Or you could just place a link to the
report somewhere using HTML customizations.

The processing status requires another checkin, that then sets the item to
waiting and alerts the patron who has placed the hold.

Depending on your equipment/supplier you can also find out about on hold items
via SIP and use this to inform the user about a separate location the item
should be placed in.
