I've just been talking to Joe on the IRC -- the syspref is named MaxFine, but the CalcFine function in C4/Overdues.pm uses a different case: $amount = C4::Context->preference('maxFine') if(C4::Context->preference('maxFine') && ( $amount > C4::Context->preference('maxFine'))); I've changed that to MaxFine and will see if that makes a difference. Right now the system has been ignoring the setting. Thanks. Jane Wagner Library Systems Analyst PTFS Inc.

Actually, I take it back... my problem was that the case of the syspref (MaxFine) and it's invocation (maxFine) differed. --Joe

Well, that would explain why it's not working. So there is no way to limit the amount of fines accrued for one patron? The only other sysprefs that seemed relevant limited the ability to check out or place holds at the threshold level.
Thanks!

MaxFine is NOT implemented. In my opinion, it should be removed.

Can someone check my understanding of MaxFine? If it's set to $10, and fine increments are .20, and the last total was $9.80, does the MaxFine kick in with the next .20 increment (total $10), or the first one AFTER the $10 threshhold (total $10.20)? Thanks.
