This was +previously limited to copies with a "magical" status of 0 or 7. The +change expands the copies that can fill holds and allows sites better +control over what copies with what statuses will appear on the holds +pull list or target holds. + +=== Hold Targeter Setting === + +This feature adds a new application setting, `status_cache_time`, to +the `open-ils.hold-targeter` service configuration in the +`opensrf.xml` file. The setting expects a positive, numerical value +for the number of seconds that the hold targeter should wait before +rechecking the copy statuses for eligibility. If the setting is 0, +then a default value of 300 (5 minutes) is used. If you do not add of +change copy status options very often, you should set this to a large +value. -- 2.11.0
