Description Caroline Cyr La Rose 2020-12-14 21:40:23 UTC
When using the statistical patron to record localuse, there are no indications whether the items is reserved or already on loan.

To test:
1) In Administration > Patron categories > New category, create a category called Local use and make sure to choose the Category type 'Statistical'
2) Go to Patrons > New patron and create a Local use patron
3) Place a hold on an item
4) Check out the item to the statistical local use patron --> Message says 'local use recorded'

It would be nice if the system could alert the staff that the item is on hold while they have the item in hand. Otherwise, they shelve it and they have to get it again when they check the holds to pull list.

In comparison, when using the checkin system to record local use, with RecordLocalUseOnReturn, the hold pop-up appears with the message 'local use recorded' also.

Another comparison, if you try to check out an item that has a hold to another patron, the system will alert you that there is a hold.
