Allow same-day booking with "days" booking resolution.
We are testing the use of "days" booking resolution, as opposed to minutes. We notice that when patrons try to place a same-day request, they get the error: "Date must be in the future." This probably makes sense for some institutions, especially without a "lead-time" setting to provide buffer time. However, we have a collection of AV equipment that students can book same-day.
This already works fine when staff make a same-day booking request in Alma using "day" resolution; the error only occurs when patrons try to do the same in Primo. I'm not sure if the necessary change would be an Alma or Primo development (maybe this should be a Primo ticket). Just the same, since Alma allows this already I'm hoping that making this consistent would be a relatively simple change.

In the April 2024 release, same-day booking is allowed.
