    Fines on Loan History and Cash Transactions

    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 15.5

    Description:
    The fines displayed on the Web OPAC Loan History page and Cash Transactions pages are inconsistent. The Cash Transactions page shows the correct fine of $10.00 for 4 items, while the Loan History page has an incorrect amount of $6.00 for each. Why?

    Resolution:
    While the Cash Transactions page is reading the actual z31 Cash record, the loan history fine program is calculating the fine based on the *current* tab16 and tab18 values.

    It has been decided that this will not be changed. This means that, if you change the tab16 fine definitions, you will need to remove the Fine column from the Loan History pages (./www_f_eng/bor-history-loan-head and bor-history-loan-exp) in order to avoid the display of incorrect information.
