           Summary: Renew button allows account renewal even if patron's age
                    is incorrect for their category
           Product: Koha
           Version: rel_3_0
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Patrons
        AssignedTo: galen.charlton at liblime.com
        ReportedBy: adrea at moablibrary.org
         QAContact: koha-bugs at lists.koha.org


When a patron's card expires, you can click on the renew link on the check out
page to renew their account.  When you do this KOHA does not catch
inconsistencies with the patron category rules that you set up in Admin.  For
example when our patron's turn 18 they go from juvenile to adult card holders.
Our juvenile cards have an upper age limit of 17 years. This renew feature
doesn't catch the inconsistency after their 18th birthday.  For an example of
what it should do - click and "edit" the account of a patron whose age has
become incorrect for their category (they just turned 18).  Then you'll get the
following message...

    * Patron's age is incorrect for their category. Ages allowed are 0 to 17.

>From our library's perspective accounts that "break" the rules set up for their
assigned patron category should not be able to renew until the inconsistency is
resolved.
