https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15261 --- Comment #24 from Julian Maurice <julian.maurice@biblibre.com> --- Why Koha should allow to place hold that will be (probably) impossible to satisfy ? Let's take an example: - Patron 1 place a hold that starts on 2016-03-01 and ends on 2016-03-07 - Patron 2 place a hold that starts on 2016-03-02 and ends on 2016-03-06 If patron 1 get the book, patron 2 will never have it (unless patron 1 returns the book very quickly, which is very unlikely to happen imo) and is never informed about the high probability that this will happen. Another issue: - Patron 1 place a hold that starts on 2016-03-02 and ends on 2016-03-08 - Patron 2 place a hold (after patron 1 has placed their hold) that starts on 2016-03-01 (we don't care about the end date here) If priority is based on start date, then patron 2 will "steal" the book from patron 1. Patron 1 will never get the book while they have placed their hold first. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
