Hello again RA SMEs,


If I understand the role of this function, it's to remove from a due date calculation dates for which the library was closed.  So, for a long-term loan with Skip dates=Y (assuming no Fixed Due Date Limits are applied), the system should extend the calculation for due date based on the number of closed days for the service point.  For example:

 - 2 week loan with 4 closed Service Point days would mean that the item should be due in 2 weeks + 4 days, due at the end of the day unless otherwise configured, correct?


Assuming I've got the basics of this right, at what level of specificity is this feature meant to apply - i.e., should it be calculating to the hour/minute for due dates?  For example:

 - 2 hour loan checked out 1 hour before service point closes.  If Skip dates=Y, should the due date/time be 1 hour after the Service Point opens the following morning?

 - 2 hour loan checked out at 13 minutes before Service Point closes.  If Skip dates=Y, should the due date/time be 1hr:47min after the Service Point reopens?


I'm wanting to game out a number of scenarios that exercise the desired Loan Policy fields under different conditions and I'll be sharing those with the group to review.  Understanding the desired specificity of this feature will help to flesh those out.  Hopefully, we can find time in the schedule next week to walk through them and get these in front of the developers for implementation.


Thanks.


Sean
