Description:
Page 48 of ALEPH Version 18.01 System Librarian’s Guide - Circulation discusses how to turn on the automatic creation of a hold request for "CATALOGER" when a fast catalog record is created. How do we turn this feature off? We have had it in effect since we came up in 14.2 and never wanted it. [ <Mary Ren > ]

Resolution:
to stop the hold request from being created, set the following parameter in alephe/tab/pc_server_defaults to:

setenv circ_cataloger_request_date 999

Restart the pc_server once you've done this

This means a hold request will not be created until 999 days, effectively stopping the hold request from being created.
