Patty had found a test about an expiration date being automatically set.
This does not happen right now. You have to do it manually.
Example - affiliate patron - you would want it to be populated when you selected patron group "affiliate"
Uschi - their current system has this feature so they would like to have it.
There is a story - UIU-1022.
Patty will make a feature and attach a specific story to it. We discussed UIU-1022.
So would we add a column to the existing patron groups table?
Quickest thing - but might make the pane pretty long.
Can one field be enough if people want a number (30 days) or they want a fixed calendar date?
Might be advantageous to look at existing UI pattern example of fee/fine owners and manual charges, as to how you could accommodate a thing that needed a lot of settings to be associated to a specific thing.
Uschi - could it be possible to have a feature to renew a patron account that would extend the date?
Patty will draft a skeleton feature for this and we need to take it to RA for discussion.

Kimie - some schools could have up to 8 to 10 external system IDs.
Having that many seems like a lot to put in extended information.
Andrea gave feedback about calling the accordion User IDs and pulling in the FOLIO ID.
Can we configure it so that only the ones we use would show up? Yes.
At TAMU, the university ID is also the barcode.
lots of discussions about what happens when a card is expired.
would there be a possibility of simply doing this as a table instead? and keeping it all in extended information
- one of the ideas in Users is that view and edit should be as similar as possible. Doing a table would break that design pattern.
- advantage of keeping in a separate accordion and leave styling the way it is is that you could control access with permissions.
Consensus - keep as separate accordion
- The FOLIO ID should not be included in this accordion, because it's not an external ID.
Uschi - can the edit screen use more of the white space that's on both sides? It could help with viewing names and email addresses.
- Kimie is going to ping Khalilah about the white space question.
- There is an existing Jira - https://issues.folio.org/browse/UIU-1362
