Description Colin Campbell 2011-09-30 10:23:55 UTC
At present if a hold is placed and no explicit expiry date is set the expiry is set to null. Libraries want a default expiry period to be used. Add a system parameter for default expiry and instead of defaulting to null set to today + period

period = 0 will give the present behaviour

Bug versionned for master. entries will be made against rel_3_8 once the patch has been applied (see thread about that on koha-devel yesterday)
Comment 2 Katrin Fischer 2023-08-05 09:29:09 UTC
This has been resolved on another bug report. We now have  DefaultHoldExpirationdate to make sure holds expire.
