[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Long overdue items

[Kathy Lussier]

Hi all,

We've been having some local discussions on issues related to billing, 
overdue items, etc. in the hopes of sponsoring some enhancements for 
billing in Evergreen. As part of these discussions, we've been talking 
about identifying copies that are long overdue (not lost).

I've noticed in the staff client there are several places that refer to 
"long overdue" items. It's referenced in the patron summary and in the 
bottom pane of the patron's "Items Out" screen. However, as far as I can 
tell, there is no built-in way to identify items that are "long 
overdue." Since there are references to it in the staff client, I have 
to assume that somebody out there is making a distinction among overdue, 
long overdue and lost items.  If you're using "long overdue," can you 
send along some information on how you're using it on your system and 
what you needed to configure?

Thanks!
Kathy
