[Evergreen-general] Emergency Closures - Process Immediately Check Box

[Jennifer Pringle]

Hello everyone,

We recently had a library need to do an emergency closure and forget to check the box for Process Immediately.  We remedied this by having them deleting the closure and doing a new one which resolved the issue but it made me wonder if the emergency closure changes would get processed later (since a process immediately box implies there is a later option).

>From looking at the docs it appears that if you don't check the box for Process Immediately then your emergency changes just don't get processed.

"When selecting the Process immediately checkbox, Evergreen will enact the Emergency Closing changes immediately once the Emergency Closed Date information is saved. If Process immediately is not selected at the time of creation, staff will need to delete the original Emergency Closing and create a new one to make sure the Process immediately option is checked. If you go back to edit an entry to select the Process immediately checkbox, the Emergency processing will not occur."   https://docs.evergreen-ils.org/docs/latest/admin/emergency_closing_handler.html#_emergency_closing_handler

Does anyone know if there is a way to have the emergency closing changes processed later or should we be removing the Process Immediately checkbox and just have Evergreen always process the changes when Emergency is checked?

Thanks,

Jennifer
