Koskenee myös asiakasryhmäkohtaiset asetukset? - MinnaK: Mitä tällä tarkoitetaan. Asiakastyyppien määrityksissä on hold fee, jolla tarkoitetaan varausmaksua joka peritään varauksesta joka tapauksessa. Tässä toiminnossa tarkoitetaan maksua, joka peritään, jos asiakas ei nouda varaustaan ajoissa.

and this discussion in english

There is a hold fee -setting in patron categories, but it is a different thing. Patron category hold fee is charged when making a hold or when hold is picked up depending on system preference HoldFeeMode.

In this case we are discussing about fee that is charged if a patron does not pick up hold in time.

This bug fix made to Koha-Suomi is needed. When a book is returned by self service station and there is a reservation, the pickup notice should not be send until the book is returned again by staff. There is a syspreff for this feature in Koha-Suomi
