Per Filip's latest comment, closing as wont do

Hi Cate,

Sorry for the late reply on this. This behavior will be moot with the Current App Context Menu pattern if Check Out has any preferences, settings or help pages (although a similar question may then arise for the "home" option in the Current App Context Menu. Perhaps this should be replaced by a "Clear all fields" or "End session" option).

Generally, clicking the home button in apps should not clear the input fields on the home screen (e.g. if people have performed a search in users, codex search or elsewhere). To make sure the behavior is consistent in the full system, this should not happen in Check Out either.

It feel that it should be made clearer how to clear all the fields in the Check Out app if people attempt to use the app icon for this purpose. In the original design (see attached, or https://ux.folio.org/prototype/en/check-out?view=full and choose UX iteration 2 under the screen), the current "end session" button was signifcantly more prominent in size and positioning, and the wording was different. Some of those things could perhaps be done in the current design to make it clearer how to clear the fields.

In any case, it should be avoided that all fields are cleared when clicking the home screen.

Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks!

@Khalilah Gambrell it looks like the expected behaviour on this needs clarification and @Filip Jakobsen hasn't responded.

@Cate Boerema we faced some issues trying to define the right behaviour.
@Filip Jakobsen Filip, can you please advise what the behaviour should be in this case?

Okidoke. Thanks!
