Changing Due Dates

Nadine suggested a helpful tip today for using WMS to check out items.  When you go to change the due date, rather than typing in a new date and time, you can just copy and paste the date that is displayed at the top of the screen shown in green below.







You can copy the entire date and time after the "3 day loans:" or "4 hour loans:" depending on the item being checked out. This is a quick  method for changing the due date so that you do not have to worry about making sure the date and time match if you change one before the other!

    To make this process easier, I have modified the banner so that one needs only to tripple-click inside the date or time to select the appropriate text. Then, just right-click, choose copy, and you're good to go! You can even tripple-click inside the dialog box, right-click and choose paste.

    With the way WMS is set up, you can even do this while the "Choose Due Date" dialog box is on the screen -- that frame at the top remains clickable.
