           Summary: Reserve cancellation-on-checkout feature removed
           Product: Koha
           Version: 2.2.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Circulation
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden
         QAContact: address@hidden


In previous version of Koha if you tried to issue a book which was reserved for
another patron, you would be presented with a question along the lines of: Item
is reserved, continue with check-out?  If you said yes, it would then ask you if
you wanted to cancel the reserve--this is helpful because sometimes a man comes
in to check out an item for his wife. He uses his card, so the reserve has to be
overridden, but the reserve can also be cancelled, because the transaction is
actually fulfilling the reserve.

This process is gone in the latest release. The process sometimes didn't work
properly (see bug 668), but it was an important part of the circulation
feature-set and should be restored.
