Description of problem: Following the addition of the ability to add information about a system loan (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=733347), it was deemed best to record the date of the initial loan in the database. Please add this enhacement to the database and allow it to be displayed in the "Systems->toggle search" results. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Version - 0.11.3 Thank you, -pbunyan
It might make sense to add a new "loan" table with start and finish times, similar to the existing "reservation" table.

Dan, I dont think it best to "time out" a loan, as this can wipe out the developement work that the system was initially loaned out to resolve :/ System loans will require some Beaker Police work by the loaner to assure the return of the loan. This is why the loaned_date has been requested, as it allows for quick search results regarding loaned systems. Best, -pbunyan

It was just a note about a possible implementation for the database side of this. The finish_time column would be NULL while the loan is open and set once the loan is returned. That's how our existing reservation table keeps track of historical users of a system. We have had other RFEs in the past related to loan queues and setting maximum loan times etc. Those could be optionally added as extra columns on the loan table.
Hello, thank you for opening issue in Beaker project. This issue was marked with component "web ui". As we are not planning to address any further issues in current UI, due to technical stack and not being able to work with Python 3 codebase, I'm closing this issue as WONTFIX. New UI will be reimplemented within new versions of Beaker. If you have any questions feel free to reach out to me. Best regards, Martin <martin.styk>
