Wishlist: Ability to Configure Hold Policies Based on Shelving Location

[Jennifer Pringle]

Evergreen 2.10

It would be useful to be able to set up hold policies based on particular shelving locations similar to how it is already possible to set up circulation policies based on shelving locations.

This would be useful for us in SPARK. Some of our libraries use multiple shelving locations for the same circ mod, and have different hold policies for those locations. As Jennifer said, it's possible to use shelving locations in circulation policies, so it would be helpful to be able to set up hold policies that correlate with those circulation policies.

Marking this Confirmed. We have run into situations in NOBLE where we have had to adjust other fields in items in order to configure a hold policy because it is not possible to use the shelving location.

Also setting the importance as Wish List, though I personally consider it more of a bug than an enhancement or new feature.

[Brandt Ensor (baensor)]

I agree. We just asked about this. IT would be useful to have for several of our sections.

Just noting that we are again seeking a workaround for a situation that would be easily accommodated if Shelving Locations were an option in setting Hold Policies.
