In the fulfilment section, enable quick transfer of an item from one patron to another
In many cases, two patrons arrive at the fulfilment desk and one patron asks to return an item and transfer it to the other patron. Currently, the item has to be returned, then the other patron's ID or name are entered and the patron receives the item. In order to speed up the process, I suggest adding a "Transfer to..." function. Once an item is returned and a transfer is needed, clicking on "transfer to" would enable immediate input of the other patron's details and save time.

You can loan to the new patron without checking in from the original patron, if you allow staff to Override the Block Preference for 'Item is currently on loan by another patron'.
