A LibLime customer would like the ability to periodically forgive patron fines if the patron's balance is less than a threshold set by the library. To meet this requirement, we propose to implement a batch job or tool.

The job would take the following parameters:

1. branches, patron categories, and item types, and fine account types to identify fines to forgive 2. an amount establishing the maximum threshold to forgive

For each patron, if the total balances of the fees of the specified type are below the threshold, the job would forgive all of those fines.

The job would have a dry-run mode to allow the administrator to check the results of running it before committing to the fine forgiveness.

For more information on this proposal, please consult the Koha wiki at

Thanks in advance for comments.<http://lists.koha.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel>

This actually sounds very nice. Would it be possible to add that same dry-run functionality to fines2.pl (or whatever the fines script will be)? _______________________________________________ Koha-devel mailing list Koha-devel@lists.koha.org http://lists.koha.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel
