[Bug 31200] New: Block payment of late fees when document not return
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=31200 Bug ID: 31200 Summary: Block payment of late fees when document not return Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 21.05 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Circulation Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: julie.emond@collecto.ca QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com, kyle.m.hall@gmail.com Hi, A library would like to be able to block any payment of late fees if materials are not returned to the library. As this could have undesirable effects it should be possible to make changes in the system preference and not be blocked for everyone. Does anyone know a way to enforce this preference? Another possibility would be to display a pop-up during payment so that the person who wants to collect knows that the document has not been returned. After the libraby chooses if it want accept of not the payment. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.

The check would have to be clever enough to check if the fine is still accruing or not since the item could have been renwewed or checked in/checked out again. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

We have a fine threshold of $25.00, but since Koha does not calculate fines (because we do NOT want patrons to pay fines before the item is returned), they could have more than $25.00 in accruing fines and Koha will not block them. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

I am interested in the policy as it might give us a better insight here. What is the reasoning behind them not wanting to pay before returning the items? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.
