Hi @ll,

Some options in the circulation rules may lead to incorrect returns from
CheckReserves. 

When you enabled AllowHoldPolicyOverride, you can forcing a hold, even when it
is not authorized in the "Default holds policy by item type" rule table. 

Let me explain: when a hold is forced on an item whose itemtype has a
holdallowed rule set to "not_allowed", if you return the item, the hold will
not be detected.

Similarly, when you perform a checkout, the pop-up indicating that a hold has
been placed is not displayed. It's possible that in other places in the code
this would cause other inconveniences, but I haven't counted them all.
