Autorenewal Notices and Action Triggers
Two new action triggers have been added to Evergreen for use with autorenewals. They can be found and configured in Administration → Local Administration → Notifications/Action Triggers.
Autorenew
-
Uses the checkout.due hook to automatically renew circulations before they are due.
-
Autorenewals will not occur if the item has holds, exceeds the maximum number of autorenewals allowed, or if the patron has been blocked from renewing items.
AutorenewNotify
-
Email notification to inform patrons when their materials are automatically renewed or, if they are not automatically renewed due to meeting one of the criteria listed above.
-
This notice can also be configured as an SMS notification.
-
This notice does not change or interact with the Courtesy Notice (Pre-due Notice) that is also available in Evergreen. Libraries should evaluate whether they want to use both Courtesy Notices and Autorenewal notices.
