Bug ID: 42240
Summary: Allow removal of guarantor for adult patrons even if
category disallows guarantors
Initiative type: ---
Sponsorship ---
status:
Product: Koha
Version: 25.05
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low
Component: Patrons

**Description:**
Currently, if a patron belongs to a category that does not allow guarantors, it
is not possible to remove an existing guarantor from the patron record.
This creates a workflow issue:
* Child patrons automatically become adults (e.g. via
`update_patrons_category`)
* The guarantor remains linked
* Staff cannot remove the guarantor unless they temporarily change the patron
back to a category that allows guarantors
**Expected behavior:**
It should always be possible to remove an existing guarantor, regardless of
whether the patron's category allows guarantors.
The category setting should:
* Control whether a guarantor can be added
* Not prevent removing an existing guarantor
**Use case:**
Libraries need to clean up guarantor relationships when patrons become adults,
without using workarounds like changing categories.
This behavior forces a workaround that risks incorrect patron categorization.
**Impact:**
* Improves usability and workflow
* Reduces manual workaround steps
* Improves data quality
