Add a loan time parameter in XSL similar to new_due_date_str
I was following the tutorial labeled "Letters - displaying the due date hour and a time zone related message in the fulfillment courtesy notice" located here: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Training/Extended_Training/Presentations_and_Documents_-_Letters i was using the newduedate_str option for a lost loan letter and it worked for the due date but not for adding a time to the loan date. I discovered there isn't a way to add the time the item was loaned out like you can with the due date. This is sometimes useful information for patrons when they are trying to track down an item they have lost.
In courtesy letters, a new field element for loan date now includes time.
For more information please see Alma May Release Notes

Hmm, it was quite difficult to understand what you were talking about. But I guessed, indeed, since 2021, the loan parameter has started to have time. That's why I didn't understand what you were talking about because I only recently joined your community. I am now generally a lot interested in loans, investments and cryptocurrency thanks to my friend from https://www.moneyunder30.com/start-investing-with-little-money And that's why I'm trying to study this area in as much detail as possible. And as for the repayment period, which will be visible to visitors, this is a very good idea. This is much more convenient than going to the bank every time to find out your situation.

We need this too for our loan and return receipt letters. They should include more data in the XML, at least the same we had in Aleph.
