Cancel Hold Requests

You can cancel a single hold request from the Patron Record, Request Manager, or Hold Request workforms.

To cancel a single hold request

• From the Patron Record > Holds view: select a hold request, and select Cancel.
• From the Request Manager > Holds view: select a hold request, and select Cancel.
• From the Hold Request workform: select ACTIONS > Cancel on the Hold Request workform.

The system cancels the hold and updates the status in the holds list.

Cancel Multiple Requests

You can quickly cancel multiple requests on a title without having to open each request by using the Cancel action on the Holds Queue / All Hold Requests view action bar.

To cancel multiple hold requests placed on the same title

1. Open the Holds Queue workform.
2. Select the All Hold Requests tab to view all the hold requests.
3. Select the hold requests to cancel.

Note:
The Cancel button is active only when all the selected hold requests have a status of: Inactive, Active, Pending, Located, or Not Supplied. If the library allows it, you can also cancel holds with the statuses of Shipped and Held.

4. Select Cancel.
   
   

The Hold request(s) cancelled successfully message appears.
