> I am  having a  problem with my Koha implementation. When an item is checked out and it is overdue, it is indicated as so in the user account. However, when it is checked in, the fines do not appear on the patron’s account. Here is my typical loan rule table:

> Now when I loan out an item of type reserve to patron category  undergraduate, the item when overdue, it is indicated as such but when the item is checked in, the fine is not shown on the patron’s account. I do not know where I missed the point.
