In versions of Evergreen prior to 2.3, the following penalty types were
available by default. When applied to user accounts, these penalties prevented
users from completing the following actions:
-
CIRC - Users cannot check out items
-
HOLD - Users cannot place holds on items
-
RENEW - Users cannot renew items
In version 2.3, two new penalty types are available in Evergreen:
-
CAPTURE - This penalty prevents a user’s holds from being captured. If the
HOLD penalty has not been applied to a user’s account, then the patron can place a
hold, but the targeted item will not appear on a pull list and will not be
captured for a hold if it is checked in.
-
FULFILL - This penalty prevents a user from checking out an item that is on
hold. If the HOLD and CAPTURE penalties have not been applied to a user’s
account, then the user can place a hold on an item, and the item can be captured
for a hold. However, when he tries to check out the item, the circulator will
see a pop up box with the name of the penalty type, FULFILL. The circulator
must correct the problem with the account or must override the penalty to check
out the item.
