https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=37942 Bug ID: 37942 Summary: Problematic calculation of overdue recall fine (overrides regular overdue fine) Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P5 - low Component: Fines and fees Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: januszop@gmail.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org Depends on: 19532 There is an issue with calculating fines when two conditions occur simultaneously: a regular overdue and a overdue recall. Overdue recall fine always replaces the regular overdue fine which can lead to significant reduce or increase of previously calculated fine. To see the problem: 1. Set finesMode to 'Calculate and charge' and UseRecalls to 'Use'. 2. In 'Circulation and fine rules' set: 'Fine amount' = 1 'Fine charging interval' = 1 'Recalls allowed (total)' = 1 'Recalls per record (count)' = 1 'Recall due date interval (day)' = 7 'Recall overdue fine amount' = 0.10 3. Checkout an item to a patron. 4. Manually, in the database, shift the due date to one year ago to create 'heavy' overdue (i.e. update issues set date_due = 'YYYY-MM-DD 23:59:00' where issue_id = N). 5. Execute the ./misc/cronjobs/fines.pl script; note the fine amount in the patron's account. It should be about $365. 6. From another patron's account make a recall on the issued item. 7. Manually, in the database, shift the created_date to a month ago (i.e. update recalls set created_date = 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' where recall_id = N). 8. Execute the ./misc/cronjobs/recalls/overdue_recalls.pl script. 9. Execute the ./misc/cronjobs/fines.pl script. Note that the fine amount in the first patron's account has decreased substantially. It will be now about $36.50. (10. With 'Recall overdue fine amount' = 10 the new fine would be about $3,650 !). This seems to be an unintended consequence of the changes C4::Overdues::CalcFine made by bug 19532 and quite a serious bug.
