0022 ##### ## 56 Y 25.00 Area Resident Library Card Renewal

When I click on the "Renew" button for a test patron, the cash transaction $25 fee appears in the Circulation Log but is not reflected in the GUI Cash [due] balance. The patron's online account (seen in the OPAC) reflects the charge.

What do I need to do to make this appear in the GUI cash balance due?

Resolution:
Most cash transactions are connected to a particular item (overdue item, lost item, etc.) and have the item's sublibrary code as the z31_sub_library. But the type 17, 21, 22, and 23 transactions are not connected to a particular item and have the xxx50 ADM library as the z31_sub_library value:

! 0017 Issuing Library Card
! 0021 Local Patron Registration
! 0022 Local Patron Renewal
! 0023 New Patron

The xxx50 tab_sub_library_attr table has type "6" lines for sorting of cash transactions.... "Only the transactions of the libraries that are registered here will display."

I find that the abc50 tab_sub_library_attr has these lines:

! 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!!!!!>
*.*.*.* 1 BROMN
3 BROMN
5 BROMN
6 BROMN

This needs to be changed to the following:

! 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!!!!!>
*.*.*.* 1 BROMN
3 BROMN
5 BROMN ABC50
6 BROMN ABC50

(and the pc_server restarted to make the change take effect).

The distributed usm50 tab_attr_sub_library had "USM50" in the "5" line but was missing in the "6". v20 rep_change 3590 has corrected the distributed usm50 tab_attr_sub_library.
