Description:
How can I limit the renew period - tab16, Col.22?

Resolution:
From tab16 header documentation:

1) Col.22: Total loan period, including all renewals and the original loan period.
The system calculates the renewal period limit since the loan date, and not since the due date.

2) Col.21: The maximum number of renewals can be limited up to 9; leave blank to define that renewals are unlimited; note that any number from 10 to 99 is also considered as unlimited renewals.

3) Col.20: If it is a rush recall, the minimum loan period is ignored and the patron must return the item by the new due date, which is calculated according to the recall period in tab16
