Description

Borrower 0000123456 should be blocked after checking out 10 items. The block appears to be enforced at the sublibrary level: the borrower could check out several books from one sublibrary, then more from a different sublibrary until 10 items from that sublibrary were checked out. For this patron status/item status combination, tab16 uses ABC16 in the Group ID and is not sublibrary-specific. Tab_check_circ is set up to do check_circ_4a, 4b, and 4c for LOAN-GBL and check_circ_4a for LOAN.

Resolution

Currently there is just this one tab16 type 99 line:

! 1   2  3  4  5    6     7  8  9    10   11   12  13  4 5    16    7  18   19  20 21  22       23        24        25       26 2728

ABC50 99 ## ## + 00000000 00 A 2359 0000 00000 999 099

The loan limit (column 12) is 999.

Patron 0000123456 has z305_bor_status 20.

If you want to limit the number of items patrons with status 20 can check out, in total, from any ABC50 sublibrary to 10, then you need to have the following line preceding the one shown above in tab16:

ABC50 99 ## 20 + 00000000 00 A 2359 0000 00000 010 099

Note: the use of the tab16 loan limit is not automatic; it must be enabled via the xxx50/tab/tab_check_circ:
check_circ_4_a
check_circ_4_b
check_circ_4_c
check_circ_4_d .
