Description Christopher Brannon 2021-09-16 20:58:27 UTC
It would be helpful if the system would alert staff if the patron is checking out an item that has not been triggered in their holds queue, and give the option to delete that item from the queue or retain it.

Hi Christopher, can you explain this one a bit more? Is the item here filling a hold for the user it's checked out to?

Well, it does not look like this is an issue anymore.  If a patron places a hold on an item, and then proceeds to check the item out before the hold is triggered, Koha automatically removes the hold.

However, the question is, should the staff member be notified that the checkout is fulfilling the unfilled hold and the hold is being removed?  Should the patron be notified?
