Hi Bob, thank you for your reply and sorry for my inexperience, I have just start to use Koha. I don't understand what do you mean when you say: -- holds are placed on items that are currently (already) on loan -- Only the books that are already loan by some user can be place on hold by

Hi, ok, thank you Brooke and thank you Zeno for you clarify. But the problem is that if I don't set this option to "Allow" I cannot place any hold, even if the books for that I try to place a hold are not on loan. Thanks Sander -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.
