[Koha] Problem Setting the Renewal Field on Item Types

[Liz Rea]

I believe a recent change to Koha moved the renewals out of the item type definition, and into the circulation rules. The rules for renewals by item type are now located in the circulation rules (where they properly belong, imo) and can be edited through that interface.

This tripped us up on a recent upgrade as well, so you're not alone. :)

You didn't say which version you were running, so I can't be totally sure about this. If this seems wrong, holler back and we'll try to troubleshoot more.

I am unable to find where the "Renewals" field is in the database as it is not located in the itemtypes table.  Any help on the location of the Renewals field would be greatly appreciated.
