Description Christopher Brannon 2019-08-20 14:57:27 UTC
Wondering why we have a column for renewal and a column for check in?

Couldn't we:
* Have a single check box?  You can't renew and check in.
* Put renewal information in the due date or checked out on column?
* Have either multiple action buttons or a single selectable action button?

I guess, theoretically, one could renew and check in at the same time with the current setup.  I'm wondering if anyone actually does this?  I would personally find it confusing, and I would be nervous about doing both at the same time.

Note: in 23.11 we now have separate buttons for renew and return that activate after checking checkboxes in the corresponding column. 
I believe this to be a nice usability enhancement and it might also cover this report. Please re-open if you disagree.
