Suspending and Unsuspending Holds

This document will explain how you can suspend and unsuspend holds in WorkFlows.

1. From CIRC toolbar, click on the Place Hold wizard.
    
2. Begin placing the hold as usual.  
3. Click on the gadget to the right of the Date suspended field.
   
4. Select date to suspend the hold.
5. Click OK.
   
   
6. Click on the gadget to the right of the Date unsuspended field.
   
7. Select the date when you want the suspension to end. When this date passes the hold will begin the process of being filled. 
8. Click OK.
9. Click the Place Hold button.
   
   

When a user is displayed at the checkout screen, the user's holds that are suspended show a suspended and also show the unsuspened date.

If only a date suspended is entered and no date unspended is entered the hold will be suspended indefinitely. So be sure to include a date of unsuspended when placing a hold.
