    • Article Type: Q&A
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 20

    Question

    Is there an Aleph API that gets the total of all the fees linked to a patron? The fees can be obtained seperately, and could be added up to get the total, but it would be more simple to get the total, if available.

    Answer

    The bor_info X-service gives the total sum of all fines/fees in the XML-tag <balance>.
