--- Comment #15 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fisc...@bsz-bw.de> ---
Hi Kyle, 

giving this a go:

1) QA Tools fail:

 FAIL   installer/data/mysql/kohastructure.sql
   FAIL   tinyint_has_boolean_flag
                The new column itemtypes.rentalcharge_daily_calendar is using
TINYINT(1) as type but is not defined as boolean in the schema file
(Koha/Schema/Result/Itemtype.pm), see the SQL12 coding guideline
                The new column itemtypes.rentalcharge_hourly_calendar is using
TINYINT(1) as type but is not defined as boolean in the schema file
(Koha/Schema/Result/Itemtype.pm), see the SQL12 coding guideline


2) Usability

I am a bit worried about usability:

Say: finescalender is set to ignore holidays.
And on the itemtype I check:
Daily rentals use calendar

But, if I understand correctly, they won't - because it falls back to
finescalendar which is set to ignore holidays. 

This seems potentially confusing to me, as you can't see what finescalendar is
set to and you have to read the 'fine print' (hint) and look it up to determine
the actual behaviour.

Instead, maybe we could label it:
Use finescalendar setting. If not checked, holidays will be excluded when
calculating rental charges. (please feel free to rephrase!)

We could also include the value of finescalendar somewhere in the template
maybe?

Alternatively... should we remove the dependeny on finescalendar and make just
the itemtype setting relevant?

then we could just have:
- ignore calendar
- exclude holidays

And it would be immediately visible from the item type configuration page, what
rule will apply.
