Meeting Notes

 Open discussion

  • Which subgroups are active?
    • CDL - may be only active subgroup.  Suggested they be asked for an update
    • Refunds - seems inactive since Holly(?) left.  Future of fine/fees may have some features resulting from this groups activity. 
    • Title Level - active but not meeting. 
  • Status of patron notices for bursar transfer and message tokens? (Laurence)
    • stalled due to low priority. Julie happy to help anyone wanting to pursue increasing priority with a JIRA (Julie)
    • Internal Transfer process (Thomas)
      • found the process stopped when # of users were greater than 10,000.  Does not work in batches.
      • cycle gathers all patron groups and cycles through each to find those with fees/fines and this is where it failed
      • Thomas has external script to transfer funds and another for refund processing that is mostly working for them at scale of 7-20 transactions per week. 
  • Is this a bug with fine/fees? (Susan)
    • Item checked out.  In open loans "Add new fine/fee" to add actual cost (not FOLIO actual cost) to an item.  Upon return the fee remains on patron account.  In meantime, item is again checked out. Staff waives/pays the added fine/fee and the item goes into "Lost/Paid" status, even though linked to a completely different loan.  
    • yes a bug. A JIRA will be opened.
    • There could be an easier way to add these fines than the current workflow.
    • Using this method since equipment checkouts have such different default costs.  Suggestion to use different material types to get these items in different circ rules that have different default costs.   Ranges used for different equipment. $50, $150, $500, $1500 etc.  and put items in the closest group.
