Evergreen isn't really designed with this scenario in mind.  Evergreen is
mainly designed to have a single rate that will continue to a maximum
amount, for example after the due date you could charge one rupee a day
until it reaches 7 rupees, but then stop charging.  Or you could charge 1
rupee a day after the due date until it reaches a percentage of the value
of the book.  Or you could charge 1 rupee every ay after the due date
forever until the item is returned.

It may be possible to use Evergreen's Action Trigger feature to set up
something like this, but it wouldn't be super simple.  There is some (very
old and possibly out of date) documentation on action triggers here:

I'm not entirely sure if this is what you're looking for, but try this:

Open a record, click "Actions for this Record", click on "OPAC View" and
you should get the OPAC view back.  Then click "set bottom interface as
default" and it should load the OPAC view henceforth by default.  "set
bottom interface as default" will set the whatever is the current view as
the default.
