[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] patron checkout history

[Lisa Hill]

KCLS uses it so it starts logging history at the time they OPT IN- it does not work retroactively.
For example, If I enable my checkout history on the 1st and then I check books out on the 2nd it should up on the 2nd.
However If I enable my checkout history on the 2nd it will not show items that were checked out on the 1st.
Here is some more information about checkout history:

with screen shots.
I hope this helps.

Bill,
For clarification, when a patron opts-in to the checkout history does it:
a.) go back in time and show them everything from the past X years?
b.) start logging history at the time they opt-in?
