+the patron record from here. This can be used for any type of restriction
+you need to put manually on a patron record.
|image449|
+|image448|
+
+The overdues restrictions are automatically set when overdue notices are sent
+if you specified you wanted the patron restricted in the
+:ref:`Overdue notice/status triggers tool <overdue-notice/status-triggers-label>`.
+
+This restriction will not be removed automatically when the overdue items are
+returned unless the :ref:`AutoRemoveOverduesRestrictions` system preference
+is set to 'Do'.
+
+In the :ref:`circulation rules <circulation-and-fine-rules-label>`, you can choose
+to fine users by suspending them instead of (or in addition to) fining them money.
+In that case, returning an overdue document will trigger a suspension restriction.
+
+Patrons may also be restricted if you have issued a :ref:`discharge <patron-
+discharges-label>` for them. Once the discharge is validated, the patron is
+automatically restricted.
+
+Restrictions on a patron record will block checkouts. In fact,
+a message will appear in red when going to the checkout page.
+
+|image1363|
+
+Restrictions may also prevent renewing items if the :ref:`RestrictionBlockRenewing`
+system preference is set to 'block'.
+
+On the OPAC, patrons will get a message saying their account is frozen. They will
+not be able to place holds from the OPAC.
+
+If you have patrons that have more than one restriction, you can choose to
+cumulate their restriction periods or not through the :ref:`CumulativeRestrictionPeriods`
+system preference.
+
+ **Note**
+
+ If you want to restrict patrons from doing various actions if their record
+ is not pristine, check the following system preferences:
+
+ - Set the :ref:`OverduesBlockCirc` system preference to 'Block' to prevent
+ patrons who have overdue materials from checking out other materials.
+ - Set the :ref:`OverduesBlockRenewing` system preference to 'block renewing
+ for all the patron's items' or 'block renewing only for this item' to prevent
+ patrons who have overdue materials from renewing their loans.
+ - Enter values in the :ref:`noissuescharge` and :ref:`NoIssuesChargeGuarantees`
+ system preferences in order to block checking out to patrons who have more
+ than a certain amount in fines or to patrons whose guarantees owe more than
+ a certain amount.
+ - Enter a value in the :ref:`maxoutstanding` system preference to prevent
+ patron from placing holds on the OPAC if they owe more than a certain amount.
+ - Enter a value in the :ref:`OPACFineNoRenewals` system preference to prevent
+ patron who owe more than a certain amount to renew their loans from the OPAC.
+ - Set the :ref:`BlockExpiredPatronOpacActions` system preference to 'Block' if
+ you want to prevent patron whose membership has expired to place hold or
+ renew their loans from the OPAC.
