"Return Item" operation

To return an item a user would need to navigate to the corresponding loan and then click on the “Close” button. A user can navigate to the loan either from the form of a member that borrowed the item or from the form of the item.

To close a loan the system would need to change the status of the loan to “Past” and the rest will be taken care by the business rules of the Loan object. In order to do this we would need to define the process called CloseLoan that requires the Loan object as its input and which has the single action:

Loan.Status = 'Past' 

We configure this process in the same fashion as we configured the BorrowItem process. Aware IM will also automatically define the operation to invoke the process from the form of the Loan object.
