In my staff duties, I am often putting a hold on an item that will be moved to in-repair for re-cataloging. Currently, I have to place a hold with my staff card and, when the item is held, I must check it in before I can change the status to in-repair. There are even more steps when the item is assigned to a different branch and wants to automatically transfer on check-in. Then I have to change the assigned branch as well.
When the item is held on a Staff account, it would be very helpful to be able to change from "held" to another status without having to check the item in first.
