            Bug ID: 22727
           Summary: Forgiven fines are recreated when lost item that was
                    not marked returned is returned
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: Fines and fees

  Target Milestone: ---

This was a dsicvoery that Koha works this way, and has for some time, but goes
against what we had believed happened.  This is not necessarily undesired
behaviour, however, it should probably be a choice (charge/do not charge
overdue fines when lost item returned if fines previously forgiven)

Filing for discussion.

To recreate:
1 - Setup:
      FinesMode: Calculate and charge (production)
      WhenLostForgiveFine: Forgive
      MarkLostItemsAsReturned: Select none
      Make sure your circ rules include fines
      Find an item with a replacement cost
2 - Backdate a checkout to a patron with the item from above
3 - Run fines.pl  - patron gets charges
4 - Mark the item lost, it is not returned, fines are forgiven, patron is
charged replacement
5 - Return the item
6 - Patron gets a new fine for the overdue with the same amount that was
forgiven
