[Bug 3387] New: WITHDRAWN items shouldn't check in
http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3387 Summary: WITHDRAWN items shouldn't check in Product: Koha Version: HEAD Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows 2000 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 Component: Circulation AssignedTo: galen.charlton@liblime.com ReportedBy: mcoalwell@nekls.org Estimated Hours: 0.0 Change sponsored?: --- "Withdrawn" status currently blocks checkout from occurring. It seems to me that "Withdrawn" status should also block check-in, prompting staff user with a message "ITEM IS WITHDRAWN." The reason this is important: For some libraries, LOST items older than x months cannot be returned, as a matter of policy. The replacement cost is billed to the patron. Items LOST longer than x months will be manually given a WITHDRAWN status by staff, in addition to LOST. This is intended to prevent check-in of LOST items older than x months. But if WITHDRAWN status allows check-in, then the Returned Item functionality in Fines will credit the account with the replacement cost. This should ONLY happen for items that are LOST, but NOT for items that are LOST/WITHDRAWN. I can't think of a situation in which Koha should legitimately allow a WITHDRAWN item to check in, so I'm reporting this as a bug rather than an enhancement; however, I'm open to discussion. :) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Some libraries may already be using it in a way that conflicts with your description. I hope folks will chime in, but it might be worth taking the issue to the Koha list for wider discussion. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
