[Bug 28539] New: allow for negative payments in Point of Sale
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=28539 Bug ID: 28539 Summary: allow for negative payments in Point of Sale Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 20.05 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Fines and fees Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: technology@haineslibrary.org QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org Enhancement request: Allow for negative payments in Point of Sale. In Point of Sale module, you are allowed to edit the cost of a sale item, and change the amount tendered. But the system won't allow you to input negative numbers for cost. For example, if we want to refund a patron $20 from their print account, we take $20 out of the register and hand it to the patron. Point of Sale has no way to record this refund, since the money was collected long ago and over many transactions (i.e. there is no specific transaction to refund). As a result, the register in POS will be over by $20. If we could make a sale of an item with a cost of -20.00, we could account for this refund and balance the POS register correctly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

It could work just like point of sale, where you can define items that might be expensed (refunds, postage, etc.) that would subtract money from the register so the reporting can show what's been taken out and why. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

I think refunds on POS transactions could meet a lot of these needs in a more controlled fashion; I'd rather pursue that if possible. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
