[Evergreen-general] Lost Items - Window of Opportunity?

[Jo-Anne Teeuwsen]

Check out the documentation on long overdue
<https://docs.evergreen-ils.org/eg/docs/latest/circulation/circulating_items_web_client.html#_long_overdue_items>
There may be an inactive long overdue notification/action trigger scoped to
LiNC. Copy that and modify your settings.
