Description Anthony Laquerre 2013-02-22 22:00:28 UTC
Request for enhancement.

It is currently possible for a user to reserve a document that is already in his hand.

To reproduce:
1 - Pay a document to the user.
2 - Connecting to the OPAC.
3 - Find the document ready in 1.
4 - Make reservation

Ideally not allocate a reservation because it allows the user to "double" the number of renewal.

Tested today, on current master

This is not an enhancement request - but a bug. Koha used to stop users from placing the same item on hold over and over in previous releases.

I thought this was the case too, but I can't find a previous version that does.

I think Owen is right and it always worked that way, but there is a new system preference in 3.12:

AllowHoldsOnPatronsPossessions
Allow/Don't allow a patron to place a hold on a record where the patron already has one or more items attached to that record checked out.
