It looks like the libraries I support don’t want to turn off the notices (by removing --send-notice) but they also don’t want to have the behaviour of getting emails saying the item can’t be renewed because of a hold when it’s still too soon. So we need to work something out. I have other priorities at the moment that need my attention, but let’s see if I can write something quickly… David Cook Systems Librarian Prosentient Systems 72/330 Wattle St Ultimo, NSW 2007 Australia Office: 02 9212 0899 Direct: 02 8005 0595 From: koha-devel-bounces@lists.koha-community.org [mailto:koha-devel-bounces@lists.koha-community.org] On Behalf Of McGowan, Janet Sent: Tuesday, 11 December 2018 4:02 AM To: Holger.Meissner@hs-gesundheit.de Cc: koha-devel@lists.koha-community.org Subject: Re: [Koha-devel] Autorenewals renewing an item then sending a renew failure email the next day Yes, using the PREDUE notice is a way around this, however it would only work if No renewal before is set to 1. Having said that there are many benefits to the --send-notice functionality - the end user is notified about the reason why a material is renewed or otherwise - so ideally we would like to be able to use this separate autorenewal notification. I believe the community bug for this is https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=19014 but in a few brief tests I don't believe it totally fixes the problem, I'm afraid I haven't had a chance to test the fix properly yet though. -Janet Janet McGowan <https://www.ptfs-europe.com/> Director of Operations Phone: +44 (0) 1483 378728 Mobile: +44 (0) 7985 431 266 Email: <mailto:janet.mcgowan@ptfs-europe.com> janet.mcgowan@ptfs-europe.com <https://www.ptfs-europe.com/> www.ptfs-europe.com Registered in the United Kingdom No. 06416372 VAT Reg No. 925 7211 30 The information contained in this email message may be privileged, confidential and protected from disclosure.

Our feedback from customers has been that the user only needs to be informed that the autorenewal cannot take place at the point that the renewal would take place (ie at the point that the No renewal before policy values kicks in).
I wonder if the regular PREDUE notice is sufficient for that or not? Maybe we don't need a special auto renewal notice, but rather a way to make sure that the PREDUE trigger can't be set to any value > no renewal before? We actually use OPACUserJS to hide that setting.
