Editing fines
After creating a fine, you can change the amount of the fine, the amount paid, or
the amount waived.
To edit a fine, highlight the fine you want to edit from the list of fines in the Fines
window and choose Edit. The Edit Fine dialog appears:
Type the corrected amounts
in the Amount, Paid, or
Waived text boxes.
The Amt Due is updated
automatically.
To print a receipt for the fine, select this option. When you click Save,
the receipt prints at this workstation's default printer.
When you finish editing the fine, choose Save. If the Amt Due is reduced to zero,
Circulation Desk deletes the fine from the patron's record. If the Print Fine
Receipt Upon Save option is selected, a receipt prints to your workstation's
default printer. Each 8.5" x 11" page contains two copies of the receipt, one for the
patron and one for your records. A sample of the patron's receipt is on page 156.
Note:
If you are editing an overdue fine, you cannot charge a fine that is greater
than the Fine Limit amount defined in the Policies tab in System Setup.
You can exceed the Fine Limit for a damaged or lost fine, but you must
confirm that you want to do so. For information about setting the Fine
Limit, see How to limit loan periods" on page 78.
