[Koha] Implementation of Hourly Loans RFC

[amutsikiwa at uzlib.uz.ac.zw]

Hi

 

  I am aware of the presence of hourly loan. However, it is the advanced features  such as 

 (1)  options for rounding 

1.	do not round (exact) 
2.	next 5 minute increment 
3.	next 10 minute increment 
4.	next 15 minute increment 
5.	next half hour 
6.	next hour 
7.	next end of day (closing time) 
8.	next beginning of day (opening time) 

 

policy for  handling

1.	due at the library’s closing 
2.	due at the library’s next opening 
3.	due at the library’s next opening plus however long the due time occurred after the previous closing (i.e. pause the loan period while the library is closed) 
4.	 due at the library’s next opening plus a fixed time

For now I think hourly loan are computed on 24-hour day, whereas I have items that allow for hourly loan from 10:00 to 14:00 hours and then overnight borrowing till the following day  at 09:00 , an  hour after the library opens. I am having challenges implementing the policy and I am running 3.116.1 

 

Regards,

Hi

 

Hope I find you well. We are an academic library and cannot wait for the
implementation of the Hourly Loans RFC as outlined in
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Hourly_Loans_RFC . Any time line for the
implementtion of the flexible hourly loan?
