[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Capping overdues at $5.00

[Holly Brennan]

What is your per day overdue charge? There was something on the list not too long ago about this....

Our charge is 15 cents per day, and it maxes out at $6 very nicely. (We're only on 2.3.4, so this max fine definitely works before 2.4)

If you also have a 15 cent/day fine, I think it would get to $4.95, and then the rule looks at it and says "Well, still not at $5, so charge 'em again!"

That's just my thoughts, and vague recollection of a recent conversation here.

Hello,

Awhile back I asked about capping over dues at $5.00, and someone told me that version 2.4 or higher of Evergreen would do this for us. My IT staff was kind enough to set up a test server using 2.5.1, and the fines are still maxing out at $5.10. What am I missing here?

Thanks~
