Description Christopher Brannon 2020-08-19 21:13:31 UTC
When checking out items with a restriction override, there seems to be a redundancy in alerts about restrictions:

Patron is restricted
Patron's card is expired
Patron has an indefinite restriction.
Restriction overridden temporarily.

I am not sure why staff need to be told twice, let alone 3 times about a restriction.  If we are overriding a restriction, it is given there is a restriction.  If a patron has an indefinite restriction, it is given there is a restriction.

This should have really told me:

Patron's card is expired
Restriction(s) overridden temporarily

I am also seeing inconsistencies in punctuation.  Should the alerts end with a period or not?
