Description Paul Poulain 2010-11-24 16:25:10 UTC
== Checking Books from other libraries ==

Each branch should be able to select if it will accept patrons checking in books from other branches.
3 steps proposed:
* global syspref: should Koha manage checkins globally or on a branch by branch basis? 3 choices:
** Check-in allowed globally? Y/N -> any branch will accept books initially checkout from any other library
** check-in allowed on a branch by branch basis? Y/N 
* if choice 2 is ON, in each site's parameters, one can select the list of branches for which transfer of items are a-ok.
* in UI in circulation, when one checks in an item initially checked out from another library, Koha has different messages according to the situation:
** "transfer to library OTHERLIBRARY" if transfer is allowed
** "Checkin from library OTHERLIBRARY is not allowed. Do you want to override?" Y/N. If Y: do as preceding step; If N: do nothing, the item stays on the patron's account.

Hi Paul,

I think this is at least partially implemented by now using the branch transfer matrix and the new options on the circulation matrix page. Do you want to keep the bug open?
