Description Nick Clemens 2014-09-18 18:55:51 UTC
1 - When adding manual invoices to a patron account the 'description' field on the 'Create manual invoice' tab prefills to the type code for any type except 'Lost item' (i.e 'F' for fine, 'A' for 'Account manag...')  This is not helpful to the user and is made even more unnecessary by bug 12415

2 - Copier fees description defaults to 'Copier fees' and the amount to "0.25" which is just an odd assumption unless that is configurable.  Additionally, the account type for 'Copier Fees' shows as 'Copie' in both the accounts tab and on receipts.  For English that should probably be either 'Copy' or stay with 'Copier fees'

Fixed, now a full description is added, that is more helpful. Wondering if we should leave it empty instead tho as it's a double up of information.

Fixed with the new debit types table.
