[OPEN-ILS-DEV] acqfest - Requests, include limits, linking to funds

[Josh Stompro]

I'm looking at the acqfest google doc 
"http://docs.google.com/View?docid=dhcbvgd8_34gn4qm5", at the Requests 
section.  Please consider being able to set various types of limits on 
the requests, like number of outstanding requests.  Number of requests 
in a 30 day period, etc.  This might be useful for organizations that 
want to reign in users that abuse the request feature, forcing the user 
to choose their items carefully.

Also, it might be usefull to link certain users requests to a certain 
funding source.  For example, if Professor X, Professor Y, and Professor 
Z used this to acquire new research materials, and they are all in the 
same department, they would all be linked to that departments book 
budget, and wouldn't be able to request materials with a total cost 10% 
over their budget.... or something like that.
