[Koha] double fines

[Katrin Fischer]

Hi,

this is correct. Koha doesn't 'add the new fine' it always recalculates
it from the due date. So if you pay a fine without returning or renewing
the item, it will be back the next day.

I current development would allow to renew at the time of the payment:

*Bug 23051*
<https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23051> -
Optionally renew fine accruing items when all fines on item are paid off

Hope this helps,

Katrin
