P03 Holds

On this page you can search for holds in IMMS. The search can be narrowed by using a number of search criteria such as, e.g., the lending branch, the Item ID, etc. For each hold, a select amount of information is shown in the overview.

If the search results contain over 5,000 rows, the results are not shown in the overview and more search criteria must be used.
