Hi all,
I asked this question in IRC a couple of weeks ago, but didn't get an
answer so I'll try here.
We're hoping to set up circ policies that use available copy/hold ratios
to block renewals if there are no copies available to fill existing
holds on a record. The policies seem to work well and have been blocking
the renewals when I expect the renewals to be blocked. However, the one
problem I see is with the error message that the user receives.
If a user tries to renew an item through the catalog and the renewal
fails due to the available copy/hold ratios, the message they receive is
config.circ_matrix_test.available_copy_hold_ratio, which is meaningless
to the user.
With other renewal failures, I see that the messages can be customized
by editing ils_events.xml. However,
config.circ_matrix_test.available_copy_hold_ratio is not one of the
error messages available in that file.
Is this something that could easily be added to ils_events.xml? I'm not
quite sure where the event codes in that file come from. If not, is
there another way I can customize this message?
Thanks!
Kathy
