--- Comment #28 from Nick Clemens <n...@bywatersolutions.com> ---
I have some concerns with the changes in this patchset, and its dependent bug
29750.
While I agree that the current behavior does not match expectations, I think we
are conflating two circ rules when we make this change.
- reservesallowed defines how many holds a patron cna place on an item.
- hold_allowed defines whether the patron is eligible to have a hold on an
item.
When libraries have AllowHoldPolicyOverride enabled, they will setup policies
such that patrons cannot place holds, but staff can place these holds and they
will be filled.
After these patches, there will be new holds that can be placed by override but
will not fill.
I think the two questions:
- Can a patron place a hold?
- Can this item fill a hold for this patron?
Are different.
I think the real solution here would be to make 'hold_allowed' part of the circ
rules matrix in a way that allows it to be set at a more granular level.
