Text to go in the release notes:
This feature adds the system preference SkipHoldTrapOnNotForLoanValue. Adding a notforloan value to this system preference prevents items with that notforloan value from triggering holds at checkin, allowing for a temporary quarantine or any other circumstance in which an item should be temporarily delayed from circulation. This presents a more customizable alternative to the existing TrapHoldsOnOrder system preference.
Version(s) released in:
20.11.00, 20.05.02

Description Kyle M Hall 2020-04-21 17:32:47 UTC
This is a companion/alternative to bug 25184, in that it allows an explicit workflow for placing returned books into temporary storage for a few days for decontamination purposes.

The idea here is to create a specific notforloan value for "In Decontamination" or something along along those lines. This notforloan value would never be trappable. At the end of decon, UpdateNotForLoanStatusOnCheckin  could be used to remove the notforloan status and allow checkins to be trapped to fill holds.

Bug 25232: Add ability to skip trapping items with a given notforloan value

This is a companion/alternative to bug 25184, in that it allows an
explicit workflow for placing returned books into temporary storage for
a few days for decontamination purposes.

The idea here is to create a specific notforloan value for "In
Decontamination" or something along along those lines. This notforloan
value would never be trappable. At the end of decon,
UpdateNotForLoanStatusOnCheckin  could be used to remove the
notforloan status and allow checkins to be trapped to fill holds.

Test Plan:
1) Apply this patch
2) Restart all the things!
3) Give an item a negative notforloan value
4) Place a hold on the item
5) Check the item in
6) Note the item is trapped for hold
7) Set SkipHoldTrapOnNotForLoanValue to the same notforloan value
   you used in step 3
8) Check the item in again
9) Note Koha did not ask you to trap the item for hold!

Patch wouldn't apply for me. Got these errors:
error: sha1 information is lacking or useless (C4/Reserves.pm).
error: could not build fake ancestor
Comment 3 Martin Renvoize 2020-05-06 18:41:22 UTC
sha1 error is because the dependency listed isn't actually a dependency but rather an alternative.

I've PQA's the other one, though I like this as a future followup perhaps to enhance the feature.
Comment 4 Andrew Fuerste-Henry 2020-05-06 18:50:10 UTC
If 25184 is moving forward and solving the immediate need, then I'd like to see this get tweaked a little to allow more than one not for loan value to be entered into SkipHoldTrapOnNotForLoanValue.

That makes sense to me - a list of pipe separated maybe? (bug 25184 just passed QA and has its own pref)

Comment 12 Martin Renvoize 2020-06-23 13:23:24 UTC
Works well, adds units tests, passes qa scripts, no regressions found.

Passing QA

(I'll leave it to the RM to remove the superfluous comment from the atomicupdate at merge time.)

enhancement, not backported to 19.11.x
Comment 16 Marcel de Rooy 2021-02-19 10:08:03 UTC
Opening up a new report for two nice perl errors here that seem to compensate one another at least in some cases.
Comment 17 Marcel de Rooy 2021-02-19 10:09:46 UTC
Noting that the English word "trap" confuses me largely in understanding what these preferences do as a non-native speaker.

Trying to improve description a bit.
