--- Comment #131 from Benjamin Daeuber <bdaeuber at cityoffargo.com> ---
Quick feedback on a few quirks. I don't know if any of these would prevent
closing this and pushing it to master, but nonetheless:

In Circ Client

1.      It appears staff can place item level holds when this feature is on,
regardless of whether item level holds are allowed. We tested on Wednesday, and
it appears Nicole has already identified this.

2.      The holds to place count (up to three) is set to 3. Select one barcode,
set “holds to place” dropdown to 3, and it only does one hold on the item. This
seems to be unexpected, but we don’t really know why that dropdown box is there
or what it is for.

3.      Put three items on hold on one record. Once you check in one of the
three items you placed on hold, and it is now “waiting” for the patron, you can
place the fourth hold. You don’t need to check it out to the patron before
being able to place the fourth hold. Is this expected behavior?

In the OPAC

1.      Related to point 1 above, this does not appear to affect the OPAC.
Users are blocked from placing item level holds if they are not allowed.

In both

1.      Item level holds seem to be disregarded by the hold limit. So if you
have a limit of 10, with 9 items on hold, you can still place 2 item level
holds. We haven’t tested this in more detail.

2.      A patron can’t place a bib level and item level hold for the same item.
I’m actually struggling to think what scenario this might be used in, but we’re
nothing if not thorough.
