Hi, Does anyone know why the WITHDRAWN, LOST, NOT_LOAN, etc. statuses are separated in the items tables? I can sort of understand for LOST & NOT_LOAN since they specify different types of LOST & NOT_LOAN, but WITHDRAWN, DAMAGED, RESTRICTED just seem to be true or false type statuses. So I guess my real question is if I don't need to specify those different types of LOST or NOT_LOAN, should I just add statuses like LOST or ON ORDER to the NOT_LOAN Authorized Values and work from there?
No, the LOST, WITHDRAWN, DAMAGED, RESTRICTED statuses are used in display and circulation. They must be used to avoid an item loan. The NOT_LOAN status must only be used to define : - acquisition statuses (on order, ...) with values < 0 - 0 means for loan - available for reference with values > 0 We add precisely this discussion with ByWater during hackfest.
