When a fine is marked as Withdrawn it shows the amount as a positive instead of a negative.  Also, it would be handy if Withdrawn fines shows the title like the late items do.  See the attached images for examples.

The internal code for "Writeoff" or "W" type is NOT supported by the Koha 3.0 internals precisely because the previous implementation is so problematic.  

Unfortunately we allowed "W" code to persist in pay.pl where it directly manipulates the database in ways that are unaccounted for and inconsistent with the rest of Koha.  

For now Writeoff should NOT be used, and it should be removed.  Later a similar functionality should be added back in.

Thanks Joe - for some reason I was saying Withdrawn when I meant Writeoff.

Thanks for explaining why Write Off doesn't work correctly.   Many libraries need the ability to write off or waive fines and other charges on patron accounts.   A work around is to create a manual credit, but that takes more time and time is critical at a busy Circulation desk.  So it is important to have the functionality added aback into Koha.
