If the library has only one item, you could enforce item level holds via the circulation conditions to achieve the effect you want. Then the user will have to pick an item to put on hold and the information will show. If there are multiple items this will of course mean that only the item picked will be able to fill the hold. Why is it so important to them to see the item information? Which information are they missing otherwise with only the title shown? On 28.11.2016 11:48, schnydszch wrote:
Thanks Katrin for your inputs. The library that asked this usually only has one item, hence they asked if it will be possible when a client put a hold on a record and then an item is filled up in the holds, or through some kind of mechanism, the first available item is put in hold, and therefore will be showed in the Holds tab in the Patrons management module. Maybe, this can be a good candidate for feature enhancement. Thanks again!

There is currently no way to display item information for a record level hold that has not been filled.
Personally I think picking a random item would be more confusing than helpful in a lot of cases - there are too many variables to make a good choice.

This I have to research yet, is there a way in the system preference to default the hold to the (nearest) available item such that it will reflect in the holds tab of patrons module? This without having to go the items. Thanks in ad1vance!
