Verified and tested in dev2 and in Bugfest Quesnelia. I'll close this test ticket.

Hi @Nina Morgenstern - that sounds good. Please be aware that the Renewal option we will be working on post Poppy - so October - early December, so this test we will not have ready in Poppy Bugfest test, but in Quesnelia.

@Charlotte Whitt there isn't an expicit test case for this yet, but it could be included in the test case “Is the reminder fee policy option "Allow renewal of items with reminder fee(s)" working correctly” (and this we already have written up, so changes or additions could be made easily).

Comment in spec document from Hebis:
Ticket in discussion:
https://folio-org.atlassian.net/browse/UIU-2598 "Reminder fees" need to stop being billed after item is renewed, but existing "Reminder fees" will remain.
This ticket is in discussion. From our point of view it should not be possible to renew an item with an
existing reminder. A reminder requires a patron return the item physically. So renewing a reminded
item contradicts the concept of reminder fees.
Most libraries in hebis don’t block patrons completely after a first or second reminder. They typically
block after a third reminder or with accumulated fees of 12 € or more. Until this complete block takes
effect reminded item should not be renewable. This is not covered by the existing tickets
We already talked about this issues with @Holly Mistlebauer and @Jana Freytag (GBV) and want to add it
as requirement.

@Florian Ruckelshausen @Holly Mistlebauer and @Jana Freytag - I'm a little unsure about the decided status on this ticket. Is this kept only for verification purpose (test)?

No work is needed, but this needs to be tested...
After the overdue item is renewed, cease creating new reminder fees for the item. The reminder fees that have already been billed should remain.
