<div dir="ltr"><div><br>Oh you are absolutly right!!!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Now if I leave the Specify Due date blank, then the due date is automatically todaysDate + 1 day as my rule specifies.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I will keep the Specify Due Date field, because our end-user likes to have everything avaialble, just incase.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>But my curiosity now leads me to ask you this, IF I override the due date, to 23 days. Now does Koha start changing me after todays+1 day or after todays+23 days? I THINK it should be after 1 day. Its my fault for putting in 23.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>What will koha do??</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks,</div>

Just don't enter anything due date, it should automatically assign the correct due date. If you like you can use system preference "specify due date" to not show the due date field.<br>
