Description Lucas Gass (lukeg) 2021-10-08 19:25:56 UTC
Bug 21260 brought about some changes to OPAC display which are great. However there are now some inconsistencies between the displays in OPAC results vs OPAC details.

To recreate:

1. Create a NOT_LOAN value with a AV of 1. Give it both an description and OPAC desrciption.
2. Find something in the catalog with at least 2 items. 
3. Mark at least 1 item with the new NOT_LOAN value. 
4. Look at the OPAC results, which display in green and say 'Items available for reference:'
5. Look at the same record in the staff results display. The same item is considered 'Unavailable'


These displays should be consistent.
Comment 1 Lucas Gass (lukeg) 2021-10-25 15:39:10 UTC
I think, in this case, that the staff client should be changed to say 'Available'

I agree, it's available for reference, available doesn't tell about ability to check out.
Comment 3 Lucas Gass (lukeg) 2022-08-29 16:55:54 UTC
This is still a bug although things have changed somewhat since I intially filed it. 

To recreate:

1. Create a NOT_LOAN value with a AV of 1. Give it both an description and OPAC desrciption.
2. Find something in the catalog with at least 2 items. 
3. Mark at least 1 item with the new NOT_LOAN value. 
4. Look at OPAC results vs staff results, the displays are not consistent. The OPAC says 1 available for reference. The staff client results says 1 unvailable.
5. Look at OPAC detail vs staff detail. OPAC says 'Available' while the staff client says "Not for loan (Staff description) Available"

These displays should all be consistent.
