Dear Chris,



I’m afraid that it doesn’t help as we only want students to be allowed to
borrow a total of 6 types of Type A and/or Type B with the possibilities:



Case

Max. Type A

Max. Type B

Max. Type A + Type B

Peter,



If you look below the table of circulation rules you'll see a rule-set
called "Default checkout, hold policy by patron category" where can specify
the maximum number of loans that a patron of a given category can make,
regardless of the item type. Does that help?

Hi Peter

If you look at the top of the Circulation and Fine Rules page there is a
rule priority order listed:

"""
The rules are applied from most specific to less specific, using the first
found in this order:

    same library, same user category, same item type
    same library, same user category, all item types
    same library, all user categories, same item type
    same library, all user categories, all item types
    default (all libraries), same user category, same item type
    default (all libraries), same user category, all item types
    default (all libraries), all user categories, same item type
    default (all libraries), all user categories, all item types
"""
So if you wanted to restrict loans for a particular user category to 6
(regardless of item type) this should be possible (just set item type to
"All" for that rule). Just make sure you don't have any rules higher up
that might lead the system to ignore this.

With kind regards from the Dalton McCaughey Library Team

I wonder if the following can be set up so that:



*Category of Borrowers*

*Loan Quota*

*Book*

*AV*

Students

6 items

Loan Period

# of renewal

Loan Period

# of renewal

14 days

2 times

7 days

2 times



So that a student can only borrow up to 6 items like 6 Books, or 6 AV, or 3
Books & 3 AV BUT NOT 6 Books & 6 AV Items.

Thanks & regards,
