In addition to enabling pre-overdue notices for a borrower, you must specify how many days before the item due date to send out the pre-overdue notice.
To specify the number of days before the pre-overdue notice is sent
1 | Go to Administration > Table Editor. |
2 | Select the btype table, and then click OK. |

|
4 | Click Page Down to get to page 2 of the table fields. |
5 | In the Pre-Overdue Day field, type an integer for the number of days before the due date that the system should email the patron. |
Note: Set the pre-overdue days to a value shorter than the majority of loan periods to avoid missing the sending of a notice.
If you do not run the pre-overdue notice process until after the item is overdue, the system will not send the pre-overdue notice. (For information on running the process, see Running the Pre-overdue Notice Process).
6 | Click Save to save your settings, and then click Close to close the window. |
Pre-overdue notices of daily checkouts (not hourly checkouts) will now be sent to the email address of borrowers who have requested the pre-overdue notice.
