Ability to Block Loan Status Notice based on Loan Status
Ability to Block Loan Status Notice based on TOU
The process for blocking the loan status notice (FullItemChangeDueDateLetter) should be more flexible. Currently, it's sent whenever a request is submitted for any item checked out by a particular user group, whether that item is recallable or not. It's unnecessary and confusing to receive a recall notice when the due date isn't being changed.

You may want to consider terminating the notice if there is no change in the due date by adding this to that notice:
<xsl:if test="notification_data/message='RECALL_CANCEL_NO_CHANGE'">
<xsl:message terminate="yes">No change in due date</xsl:message>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="notification_data/message='RECALL_ONLY'">
<xsl:message terminate="yes">No change in due date</xsl:message>
</xsl:if> -
The "Library Notices Opt-In" option may be of interest to you, see https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Product_Documentation/Alma_Online_Help_(English)/Administration/040Configuring_User_Management/040User_Details_Configuration#Configuring_Library_Notices_Opt-In. You can block the 'Loan Status Letters' for all users.
