[Koha] Temporary workarounds for bug 23091 to charge overdue fines on formerly lost items

I recently discovered that our library is being impacted by bug 23091 - Add
options to charge new or restore forgiven overdues when a lost item is
returned. <https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23091> I'm
curious to hear if others have a good workaround process for re-charging
overdues manually when items are returned, or are you just forgiving the
fines until there is a fix? I'm worried about how to clearly communicate to
circ staff how to properly re-calculate overdue fines once assumed lost
items are returned...especially with our library having reduced open days
(so less days when a fine should have accrued) during COVID.
