Description Barbara Johnson 2021-03-10 23:38:07 UTC
At our pickup window we are pulling patron's holds and checking them out manually.  Sometimes it's helpful to know how many items we are looking for on the holds shelves.  It would be useful to staff if the number of holds waiting to be picked up displayed on the check out screen above the list of titles.  So instead of just seeing 'Holds waiting:" staff could see 'Holds waiting (9)

I think we can add dataTables to this table which would gain the ability to sort these columns.

Hi Barbara, this looks a bit different than I expected (maybe some clever local CSS?) Which page are we looking at on your screenshot? Is this the checkouts tab on the patron account in staff?

What do y'all think of this?
Comment 5 Barbara Johnson 2021-04-21 16:57:52 UTC
That's perfect.
Comment 6 Katrin Fischer 2021-04-21 19:51:37 UTC
Thx, Owen!

Wondering, would "... (4):" or "...: 4" be better in this case?

Bug 27924: Display number of holds awaiting pickup on check out screens

This patch modifies the checkout page so that waiting holds are
displayed separately depending on whether they are waiting at the
current branch or not. A count of each number of waiting holds is
displayed too.

Unrelated change: A missing </li> has been added for markup validity.

To test, apply the patch and view the checkout screen in these
situations:

 - A patron with no waiting holds.
 - A patron with one or more holds waiting at the current library.
 - A patron with one or more holds waiting at another library.
 - A patron with holds waiting at both the current library and at other
   libraries.

In each case, the display of waiting hold information should be correct,
including the count of holds of each kind.
