| Hold Shelf Default |
Recommend changing the rapido_hold_shelf_expiration to “circ_desk” (Configuration > Resource Sharing > General > Other Settings) which means the time will be based on the circulation desk hold shelf configuration. |
System default is to use the request due date, which is not what’s typically expected and can be confusing for users. |
