Hello! My library is looking at streamlining our process for handling damaged items. Here's the issue we are running into:
If an item is checked in, it automatically goes into "In Transit" status. If we cancel the transit, it goes into "Canceled Transit" status. If we want to send it to our bindery, we typically want to change it to a "Bindery" status so it can't be held, etc. However, the "Canceled Transit" status doesn't allow us to manually change the item status in either the item status menu nor the holdings editor. To clarify, if an item has the "Canceled Transit" status, the item status dropdown is greyed out. Our current workaround is to mark the item as discard/weed, which we can then go in and manually change to "bindery" however some of our newer staff may have issues with learning this workaround. My questions is this, is there a way in the settings to permit certain item statuses - in this case "Canceled Transit" - to become changeable. If I wanted to go from "Canceled Transit" to "Bindery" is there a way to make it happen? Thanks!
