Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Bills Current Receipt Template and Total Owed
Excellent, thanks Scott! I searched launchpad as well and didn't find that one. Our libraries will be happy to know about these macros that work on the bills_current receipt. I'd still love to see one that could pull in the total owed on the items_out receipt (like %balance_owed% does on the checkout receipt) so that when someone asks for the status of their account we could give them the list of items they still have out plus their current bills all in one receipt, but I haven't found a way to do that yet. If anyone knows if there is a way, I'd be really happy to hear it.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Bills Current Receipt Template and Total Owed
Good Morning, Interesting. I'm glad you found it, Scott. I just want to mention that the reason why your search may not have returned results the first time is because Launchpad does not search bugs in a Fix Released status by default.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Bills Current Receipt Template and Total Owed
Good Evening Scott, I started playing around with receipt templates earlier this afternoon and pulled Jason Etheridge into the discussion. Thank you, Jason! While there was a potential workaround, we discovered that the sum= sumout= functionality is trying to inexplicitly strip out dollar signs. So, if a patron owes .70 cents, the Total Balance would read $70. I've created a bug report and Jason has provided a fix. I haven't had the opportunity to test the fix yet. Here is the link: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1464025 Have a good night!
