[Koha] Fines + An Older Koha

[Katrin]

Hi Sam,

some things you can check:

Administration > Circulation conditions
 > Grace period
The grace period is the time between the due date and the day the first 
fine for an overdue item will be calculated.

Tools > Calendar
No fines are calculated on days the library is closed.

Administration > system preferences > Finesmode
Should be set to charge fines.

Hope this helps,

Katrin
