Description Heather Rommens 2024-07-10 20:22:41 UTC
It would be helpful if the language used to describe the FinesMode and CalculateFinesOnReturn were refined in such a way to make it clear that you do not have to run the fines.pl cron if you do not want fines to accrue on accounts. A use case for this is when a library would like to calculate and charge fines to a patron's account upon the return of the item, but would not want fines (accruing) to show on the account prior to the item's return.
