Description Nick Clemens (kidclamp) 2023-08-31 15:05:45 UTC 
Sometimes a library may acquire a new copy of a book, or have a book in hand that could more easily fill a hold than the current item Koha has selected.

Currently, librarians need to cancel and replace or revert a hold to enable them to fill the hold with the desired item.

We should add a button on the holds tables that allows staff, with permission, to scan a barcode and fill a hold directly.

Can you explain the use case a bit more? Why would a return not trigger the hold for the item?
