---- Reported by dswhite42@yahoo.com 2008-03-20 19:38:37 ---- During the check-in process, Koha doesn't provide any notification to the librarian that a patron owes a fine. This patch to (KOHADIR)/intranet/cgi-bin/circ/returns.pl and (KOHADIR)/intranet/htdocs/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/circ/returns.tmpl provides a notice for the librarian and link to the fines page, triggered when the delinquent patron's item is checked in. (patch is against Koha 3.00.00.067 - 3/20/2008 snapshot) ---- Additional Comments From dswhite42@yahoo.com 2008-03-20 19:39:16 ---- Created an attachment Patch for returns.pl and returns.tmpl ---- Additional Comments From nengard@gmail.com 2009-12-21 13:06:39 ---- When checking in items I still do not see a notice if the patron has a fine - I do however see if the item was overdue. --- Bug imported by chris@bigballofwax.co.nz 2010-05-21 00:36 UTC --- This bug was previously known as _bug_ 1962 at http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=1962 Imported an attachment (id=439) Actual time not defined.

This is still a problem. You can see if the item was overdue, because the date is shown in red. But you don't see if the patron has to pay a fine for it. (borrower category does not have to pay fines, item is overdue but in grace period) So you have to check the account separately. This adds additional steps, is time consuming and easy to forget.

The yellow message box also shows up when there is no fine on the patron's account.

I'd like to see a preference to choose whether this message appears or not. Some people are complaining because it's making the checkin process take longer and they don't want the warning.
Hi Nicole, can you suggest a wording for the system preference? Will make it a little easier :)
How about: FineNotifyAtCheckin - Notify/Don't notify librarians of overdue fines on the items they are checking in.
Thx!
Created attachment 3438 [details] [review] Patch adding new syspref FineNotifyAtCheckin This patch adds a new syspref FineNotifyAtCheckin. With syspref ON there will be a message when checking in books from a patron with outstanding fines. With syspref OFF (default) no message will be shown.
