It is possible to bulk update or globally modify or renew the due dates of a set of items currently on loan. This is particularly useful for extending or reducing the number of days a set of items currently on loan can remain on loan by altering the due date of those items, or to correct the current due dates of a set of loans inadvertently issued with an incorrect due date.
