Thanks, Kathy. That's my expected behaviour. Tina

Currently, let's say a patron claims to have returned an item that is
overdue on their record. The claims returned date is two days after the
due date, so the system automatically adds two days of overdue fines to
the patron's bills.

However, let's look at the same situation when the overdue items has
already been switched over to lost. The fines stopped reason for the
item changes to CLAIMSRETURNED, but the patron's record still retains
the lost fee and no overdue fines are added, even if the claims
returned date is two days after the due date.

With this development, if the related library settings are enabled, the
lost fee should be removed from the patron record. If the claimed
returned date is after the due date, I think the appropriate overdue
fines should be automatically added to the patron record as they are
when an overdue item is in the same situation.

Does that meet with your expectations, Tina? Thanks for raising the
questions because, as Jason mentioned, we hadn't thought of that
particular situation in our previous discussions.
