RA - Loans 5/21/2018
Agenda
Declare lost (guest: Holly Mistlebauer)
& other topics as time permits
Notes
Declare lost
- Decided that replace copy is method of paying fines & fees - needs to be available from fee/fine history
- If an item is declared lost, stays on patron's account as open loan until the bill is paid (through any method: replace copy, waive, payment, transfer)
- Needs to be a way to process something that comes back even when a lot of time has passed
Claim returned
- Suspending fines (e.g., if the item is grossly overdue & has been billed) keeps them around while pretending they don't exist
- If a fine has already been sent to the bursar, credit their account
- the loan would have closed; would be nice to have a way to re-open it (without checking the item back in)
Inactive user
- System currently prevents checkouts; should it create a modal or allow for override?
Next meeting and action items
