I realise that Transactions covers a whole multitude of Collections Management Processes of which Loans is only one, but it seemed the best place to log this given that there isn't a specific forum on Loans.
At the recent NA EMu Users Group meeting in NY I mentioned that the NHM had made some big customisations to the Loans Module. Many of you were interested in seeing what we had done. I therefore attach some screen shots and a brief synopsis of the major elements and inbuilt functionality that will help us to manage our objects with cross-museum consistency.
I know it's not easy interpreting screen shots so if anybody has any specific questions, I'd be very happy to answer them.
