[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Item "Recall" function? / Copy Holds

[Lindsay Stratton]

In our configuration at least, copy level holds don't appear to have any particular precedence in getting items to fill a specific hold. 

That was one very nice aspect of our previous ILS holds workflow.

So, what we really need is the v.2.1 "top of the queue" idea. In the meantime, however... :-)

Jason,

My understanding from someone who had done this is it does take
precedence, or at least it did in 1.4. Some PINES libraries apparently
used it often to bring items back once they were stuck supplying holds
elsewhere.
