https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=24083 Bug ID: 24083 Summary: Koha should support "seen" vs "unseen" renewals Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Circulation Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: andrew.isherwood@ptfs-europe.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com, kyle.m.hall@gmail.com When carrying out a renewal transaction Koha should check for both the maximum number of renewals allowed and also the number of unseen renewals. If it finds a value equal to or greater than the number of renewals already carried out against that loan, it prevents the renewal. The purpose of this is to prevent borrowers from continually renewing a book when they have, in fact, lost or misplaced it! When a renewal takes place via a method that doesn't require visible sight or possession of the item (e.g. OPAC, automatic renewal) then the number of unseen renewals for that item should be incremented. SIP2 renewals can be considered seen since they will require the physical item to be scanned. The number of allowed unseen renewals before a renewal is denied should be specifiable in the circulation rules. If a renewal is denied due to the unseen maximum having been reached, the flow should be the same as when a renewal limit has been reached, though with appropriate messages displayed to the user. It should be possible to override the denial in the same was as when a renewal limit is reached. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
