[Bug 41218] New: Enrollment fee can be charged twice when changing category of expired patron
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41218 Bug ID: 41218 Summary: Enrollment fee can be charged twice when changing category of expired patron Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 - low Component: Patrons Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: andrew@bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com, kyle@bywatersolutions.com When a patron's account is expired and their category needs to be changed to one that charges an enrollment fee, they end up with two fees if their category is changed before they are renewed. It's unrealistic to expect staff to remember to always renew the patron before changing their category. To recreate: - have an expired patron - have a category that charges an enrollment fee - edit your patron to move them into your category - confirm your patron has been charged the enrollment fee - renew your patron - confirm your patron now has a second enrollment fee charge Possible solutions: - Do not charge an enrollment fee on category change for expired patrons - Ask the user whether or not the charge the enrollment fee on category change for expired patrons - Force renewal of the patron on category change -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

It seems like the fact that the enrollment fee is charged on a category change at all is problematic. What if someone accidentally changes a category? Or if we decide that a group of patrons should be a different category, so we want to batch move them, but not charge the fee until the next time they renew? I think any of the possible solutions Andrew mentioned would be an improvement over the current functionality. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
