[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Selfcheck questions

[Chauncey Montgomery]

As we have begun to implement selfcheck, I have hit some snags and could 
use a little direction.  I was hoping some of you with more experience 
could shed some light on the following items.

1.  We're trying to get selfcheck to ignore copy alert messages, etc., 
so patrons don't see "Unable to check out item [BARCODE]. Please see 
staff," every time there is an issue.  We put the value 
"COPY_ALERT_MESSAGE" in the "selfcheck override events list" in the 
Library Settings Editor.  When a barcode is scanned, we no longer get 
the error; however, nothing happens.  The check out doesn't complete. 
In researching the issue, I came across a thread on the listserv 
(http://markmail.org/message/5wjs5ffyjgykx46z).  It appears to be the 
same issue, but I didn't see a resolution.

2.  How do you configure selfcheck to accept patron barcodes and not 
their login names?

Thanks for any assistance.
