Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Question on Patron Hold Limit

I limited holds for our patrons to 15 a couple of years ago. I do not recall seeing a way to limit by the type of hold, but I wasn’t really looking for that. I just wanted to stop people from putting an insane number of items on hold and then having to tell them that they could only check out

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Permission code EVERYTHING

The "the code checks for this permission instead of seeing if Everything is there" bug I haven't seen in at least three Evergreen releases (maybe more). As Jason said, assigned org units / depth of permission is more likely the culprit. On Wed, Jun 22, 2016 at 1:53 PM, Jason Stephenson

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Question on Patron Hold Limit

Hello Amy, I have never set one consortium wide but I imagine it is no different that setting one for an individual library. What you are looking for is located in Admin-->Local Admin-->Hold Policies. You can limit the total number of requests placed. I looked over the settings and I believe

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Question on Patron Hold Limit

Hi all-- We here at Bibliomation *think* there is a way in Evergreen to set consortially a limit on the total number of hold requests that can be placed for patrons. For instance, we're thinking of restricting it to 5 total at one time for all patrons. Has anyone on the list limited the number
