[Bug 27254] New: Damaged items need more control over holds
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=27254 Bug ID: 27254 Summary: Damaged items need more control over holds Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Hold requests Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: cbrannon@cdalibrary.org QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com Currently, NOT_LOAN is setup so that negative values will allow holds and positive values will not. DAMAGED does not have this functionality, to my knowledge. AllowHoldsOnDamagedItems gives you an ON/OFF setting for DAMAGED items. It would be great if we did away with AllowHoldsOnDamagedItems and instead DAMAGED would function the same as NOT_LOAN in terms of positive and negative values distinguishing whether or not the item can be put on hold. This way, a library can determine if a damaged item is a lost cause and change it to a damaged status that can't be held. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=27254 --- Comment #1 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer@bsz-bw.de> --- I believe it would be really hard to deal with this change for upgrades as we cannot tell how libraries have used lost values (items, several system preferences, longoverdue cron, reports, etc). But admittedly adding consistency would be nice. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

I agree it would probably be hard, but not impossible. I would imagine a similar situation was faced with NOT_LOAN, assuming it didn't start out with this option. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.

Make specific DAMAGED values holdable or not, just like NOT_LOAN. 2. Select whether holdable damaged items can fill holds or not. Currently if AllowHoldsOnDamagedItems is turned on, damaged items will appear on the holds to pull/holds queue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
