No Warning Message while Checking Out a Particular Item Type to a Particular Patron Category (Already restricted in Circulation and Fine rules)
Hello, I have restricted a *particular item type (say, Textbook)* to a *particular patron category (say, Project Fellow)* for not checking out under circulation and fine rules in Koha. While checking out a book under the same item type to the same patron category, it is not showing any warning message but allows checkout with the same due date and checkout date. I have also checked Koha System preferences (Circulation) but have not found any such option. Currently, I am using Koha 21.05 in Debian 11 OS. Is there an option to show such a warning message to enable a staff member while doing the said job?

Hi, how did you restrict the checkout? One way of not permitting checking out a certain item type to a certain patron category is setting the number of checkouts to 0 for this combination. If you still see no warning you might want to check if you are looking at the correct circulation rule. Sometimes if you have defined rules for "All libraries" and also for the specific branches, it's quite easy to miss that you are not looking at the rule that will be used.
