We have hidden this function as well.  Getting rid of it makes sense to me.

Subject: [Koha] Seeking comments on "Return all" function

Nicole reports in Bug 4416
(http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4416):

"On the patron record the renew all and the return all buttons are very
close
together and librarians are accidentally clicking return all (as I have on
many
occasions) - can we put more space between them - or right align one and
left
align the other so they're far apart and require reading?"

I agree, and my librarians have already had me hide the button in our
system.

My take on it: I'd like to [officially] get rid of the "Return all"
button altogether. Returning all items
is a step which one wouldn't take lightly or even regularly. Since the
interface has a means of selecting all checkboxes in the "Check in" column,
removing the "Return all" button wouldn't eliminate the means of doing so,
it
would just require more deliberation. That seems appropriate.

Does anyone object?

Thanks,

  Owen
