Clearing Fines

Many libraries charge fines when items are overdue.

A new feature now allows you to clear all fines for all patrons.  Because of our current environment caused by the pandemic, it maybe necessary in some cases to clear all fines for all patrons.

Clearing a specific fine is done when an item is checked in or by bringing up a patron and clearing a specific fine.  You can also use the 'Pay All Fines' button for that specific patron.

To clear all fines for all patrons, click on the Setting module and the Policies link.  Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the Begin link for clearing all fines.

You will be prompted for your username and you will need click on the checkbox that declares that you understand that the action can not be undone.    Only users with permissions to access Settings can execute this command.
