           Summary: Check ins processed through "Check Out" tab of the
                    Patron Record ignore Circulation System Preferences
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: dcook at prosentient.com.au
          Hardware: All
            Status: NEW
           Version: master
         Component: Circulation
           Product: Koha

If you check-in an item through the "Check Out" tab of the Patron Record, the
return/check-in ignores the "InProcessingToShelvingCart" and
"ReturnToShelvingCart" circulation system preferences. Or rather, there just
isn't any logic to handle them in the renewscript.pl file. 

I'm pretty much just bringing the code straight across from returns.pl,
although some minor changes need to be made due to context.

Both system preferences are important to include, since you can check-out an in
processing item to a patron. While a regular check-in will clear the in
processing status, a check-in through the Patron module will cause the item to
have its status returned to "In Processing" rather than going to "Shelving
Cart", if the preference is set, of course.

To test the scenario, turn on one of (or both of) these settings and try
checking books in through the Circulation module and the Patron module. 

Before the patch, you will see that only the Circulation module will change the
shelving location. 

After the patch, you should see identical behaviour. 

Yay consistency!
