is enabled, this is being sent to the patron during daily maintenance 5 days prior to the reservation start date, which is what my Circulation -> Circulation Rules -> Days to Look Ahead for Reservations preference is currently set at. Here is what I observed: On the 15th I placed a reservation for the 22nd, 23rd, and 24th and when advancing my system clock ahead one day at a time, allowing daily maintenance to run each day, this was sent one time during daily operations @ 12:06 AM on the 17th but not on the 16th and not again on the 18th or 19th. These specifics are not currently mentioned in our documentation for this preference.

This is being sent to the patron during daily maintenance when they have an item checked out which was a reservation and was checked out through advanced bookings. Confusing, but I did this: I created 3 patrons and 3 items. One item I checked out normally, due on the 25th. The other two I placed reservations on, by separate patrons, ending the 25th. I then checked out one reservation through circulation and the other through advanced bookings. I left 'Days Before Item Is Due To Send Out Notice' at it's default of '0', which I believe means ON the due date, and began advancing my system clock ahead one day at a time, allowing daily maintenance to run plus a little time for notices to go out. On the 25th I received ONE notice for the patron that had a reservation which was checked out through advanced bookings. The other patrons whose items were also due this day but checked out differently did not receive any notice. Evidently there is something in the database indicating it was an advanced booking reservation and this notice only applies to those currently. I believe this to be T8TRpendingAbItem Myra's original question: wait, how do we know it was a reservation? It should just be a regular checkout. - is this working? Or is it reminding people of regular coming dues? or needed for reservation?
