Add "Days Past First Available" to Item Bulk Change Options
The item hold setting option, "Days Past First Available," was added in Polaris 6.4. This hold setting is not currently included in item bulk change options and should be added in.
Idea Value
Libraries who want to begin using this feature cannot currently bulk change existing items to use this setting (or, if already using, change the existing value). All other item hold setting options can be bulk changed. For parity, the "days past first available" should be added as a bulk change option as well.

We recently needed to make materials at a branch not holdable while that location was providing limited services and discovered that batch updating "holdable" interfered with the "days past first available" option and cannot be corrected through a batch process.

This would be a very timesaving feature. It's something we've bumped up against in the past, updating items, and it is very time consuming to manually change the dates.
