Hi Sarah, Here at Tate we don't use the Loan Type at all. But our loan purposes are as follows: [cid:image002.png@01D33DE9.AFBD4F10] As you can see, we mostly use the purpose to denote the Tate venue. Although we do have issues with users not assigning a loan purpose at all, leaving it as "(not entered)"! Hope this helps.

I am in the process of reviewing our workflow of the Loans module. I wondered if anyone was willing to share some screenshots, or list of terms used for Loan Purpose and Loan Type. Ours is a bit inconsistent so I would love to see how other museums establish these authority fields. Thanks! Best Regards, Sarah L.
