-After saving the new member category, edit the record to add more details, eg. this member type offers 3 months of membership, so change the expiry period to 3 months, or whether this category is included in the new member signup form (set Exclude = 'No'). Important! Leave return period = 0, unless you want different member types to have different loan periods.

+The max number of toys a member is allowed to borrow is in the #toys setting, most toy libraries allow a max of 4 toys per loan period. If you have plenty of toys, then set this to a higher value to prevent over use of the override function.
