Granularity in Staff Permissions
This idea has been brought up before I believe as an enhancement. We would like more specific permission levels in item modifications. Specifically we need the ability to set permission to modify the Circulation Parameters in an item record (Material type, Loan period, Fine code, Renewal limit, separate from permission to change any Call number fields. This would allow us to choose which modifications certain levels of staff have the permission to perform.
Idea Value
This would result in fewer errors and fewer cataloging corrections on item modifications that have been done at the branch level. We realize this is a training issue but sometimes it's very difficult to train all levels on so many functions when they really don't need all of it - just a few things.

We could use a permission to allow each branch manager the ability to adjust floating limits for their location.
