Just another question: If we checkout in the staff client, wouldn't it be good to also show a message? A staff member could remind the patron that the fee is applied now, but he does not see it happening.
I think this would be a 'nice to have' feature but not essential so perhaps it could be a phase 2 follow up. Items with rental fees show an alert at checkout so an alert would be consistent with this. However in large, busy public libraries for example with lots of customers collecting holds, an alert may be more of a hindrance.
Thx Fiona for your feedback. A busy librarian may ignore alerts at his own responsibility. (In this case the user has been informed when he placed the hold.) But yes, I agree that it would be consistent to show the alert just as a rental charge is shown under the attention label of staff checkout. And I would rather see it on this report; it is a small change and within scope. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
