Re: [IUG] Standard Item Rentals loan rule setup

Hi Janice,
I'm replying very late on a Friday afternoon so I won't try to help  
you right now.  But if no one else has offered I will be happy to  
explain our set-up, we also needed to move to Standard rentals to  
accommodate 3M SelfCheck machines.
Just call or email me next week.
Regards,
Nancy
