We had the automatic handling turned off, which did create a pop-up about the item not being returned. Unfortunately, that left resolving the situation to student workers, who did not always handle the situation correctly or notify supervisors about it.
I'm working on identifying these transactions based on having a loan date/time that matches another item's return date/time but it must be limited by date because it runs through several sub-queries and is slow.

An error occurred while saving the comment K Floyd commentedI've been using Alma in Chrome, and added Alma to the desktop with the option of "open in window" (a Chrome application shortcut). This eliminates the forward/back buttons so I'm not tempted to use them (though keyboard shortcuts still work). Plus, it doesn't show tabs, bookmarks, or URL bar so you get an extra inch or so of space on the screen.
It also creates a separate icon so you can distinguish the Alma window from other browser windows on the task bar. This has been particularly helpful for our circ desk student workers.

An error occurred while saving the comment K Floyd commentedSome confounding shortcuts:
CTRL + d in Alma ME = delete; CTRL + d in Connexion = delimiter. I've lost time because I think delimiter, hit ctrl+d, and then need to go through the no, don't delete this record dialogue.CTRL + F5 = refresh. My fat fingers have accidentally refreshed a page instead of CTRL+F6 deleting a field often, so I would be in favor of making delete field = Ctrl+F8, far away from refresh.
