How it currently works in Koha 2.2.9

A book is either marked lost by a staff member OR is marked lost by becoming
long overdue.

Both instances generate an invoice for the replacement cost of the item in the
Patron's account.

When the Patron pays that invoice several things happen:

1. The invoice is marked paid.
2. The item is returned off the borrowers card.
3. Its lost status remains in place.
4. A note is generated which says "Paid for by <patrons barcode number> and the
date.

Then, later when the lost book is returned or found, as it comes through
returns several things again happen:

1. The note is removed.
2. Its lost status is removed.
3. A credit is placed on the Patrons account.

This is a flawless system. We do not reimburse lost or overdue fines - just the
replacement cost of the book.
