Overdue Notice Markup

When creating your overdue notices there are two tags in addition to the various database fields that you can use in your notices.

Important These new tags only work on the overdue notices, not other circulation related notices at this time.

These tags are <item> and </item> which should enclose all fields from the biblio, biblioitems, and items tables.

An example of using these two tags in a notice template might be like:

Existing Notices & Slips

Existing Notices & Slips

Among the default notices are notices for several common actions within Koha. All of these notices can be customized by altering their text via the Notices & Slips tool and their style using the NoticeCSS preference to define a stylesheet. Here are some of what those notices do

-
  • To send additional notices, click on the tabs for 'Second' and 'Third' notice
  • -
  • If you would like to prevent a patron from checking items out because of their overdue items, check the 'Restrict' box, this will put a notice on the patron's record at checkout informing the librarian that the patron cannot check out due to overdue items.

      +
    • If you choose to restrict a patron in this way you can also have Koha automatically remove that restriction with the AutoRemoveOverduesRestrictions preference.

  • Next you can choose the delivery method for the overdue notice. You can choose from Email, Feed, Phone (if you are using the iTiva Talking Tech service), Print and SMS (if you have set your SMSSendDriver).
