[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Previously placed holds...and system options...any ideas?

[Kathy Lussier]

Hi Tony,

I would say question 2 depends on how you identify your on-order 
materials. If you are using the "On Order" status for these materials, 
then you will need to configure the copy status to be holdable via Admin 
-> Server Administration -> Copy Statuses. However, if you are also 
using an On Order copy location as some of our Evergreen sites do, then 
you'll need to make sure the copy location is holdable as well.
