Description:
Overdue notices are displaying the z36-due-date rather than the z36-recall-due date.

Resolution:
Add a "z36-due-date DUE-DATE" line to ./xxx01/form_eng/global.trn with z36-recall-date z36-recall-due-date as the parameters. (See the usm01/form_eng/global.trn.).

Description: CIRC - Loan - z36-due-date in printouts - taking recall into account.

In xml-xsl printouts, z36-due-date can be translated into the "effective due date" by using the following setting in ./usm01/form_eng/global.xml (or a specific xml-settings file, for that matter), e.g:

! M
! /
!Tag Type S Parameters
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-!!!!!!!!!!-!-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!->
z36-due-date DUE-DATE S z36-recall-date z36-recall-due-date

The translation process uses the routine get_effective_due_date.cbl. That is, TAB10-RECALL-METHOD, Z36-DUE-DATE, Z36-RECALL-DATE and Z36-RECALL-DUE-DATE are all taken into account in order to generate the "effective due date".

In addition, the "effective due date" is now shown instead of "Due Date"
in the "Item Information" window (in circ2 - Item tab | Items List | lower pane).
