Description Donna 2021-01-08 18:30:59 UTC
Currently the system preference CheckPrevCheckout is an everyone or no one setting.  It would be particularly helpful in Housebound module to have that system preference apply in only specific situations.  For instance, only for a specific patron category, or only for patrons with a specified attribute.  Without this, staff have to manually search a patron's circ history to see if an item has already been checked out to them.

We are currently thinking of adding this service for our patrons.  Having a function that would alert the choosers of previously checked out items would be a huge time-saver.  For us having the CheckPrevCheckout able to be turned on for specific patron types would be great!

Since the functionality to set this by patron category is available, I will close this.
