Can a Secure patron cancel in the Locate their request at any step, or could there be restrictions?
Can authorized personnel cancel a request on behalf of a Secure Patron using the Mediated Requests app?
For Mediated requests with a Mediated request status of “New - Awaiting confirmation”, authorized personnel can Decline the Mediated request to cancel it. For Mediated requests that have been confirmed as circulation Requests, authorized personnel can Cancel the Request app in the Secure tenant.
Is it true that authorized personnel can only decline a request in the Mediated Requests app at the "Awaiting Confirmation" step (as an alternative to the "Confirm Request" action)?
SB: Yes. A mediated request can be declined while in the Awaiting confirmation status. Once it becomes a circulation request, it can be canceled.
