My loans

The portlet shows all active loans for the user with important information like due date. In this portlet the user can, depending on the configuration, for example:

  • Renew one or more of the loans
  • Click on a title to show the catalogue record details
  • See in which branch the loans were made, loan date and due date
  • Sort the list of loans in different ways

If family ticket data is passed on from the backend, family members with loans are shown in a dropdown.

The family members are presented in the following order:

  1. current user

  2. connected cards in the order received from the LMS through ALMA

The portlet is by default placed on the page /protected/loans, and in the default installation it can be reached from the tab My pages.
