--- Comment #5 from jessedhammu <jessedha...@gmail.com> ---
i am using koha 24; last time I was on koha 23.05, i made some changes in my
overdue.pm file so it calculates the fines on an incremental basis. like
Rs25/Day for 1st week, then Rs50/Day from 2nd week and Rs75/Day if the book is
late for 3rd consecutive week.
My server crashed today, and I had to install koha afresh and restore the
database. Everything is working fine, but except for this incremental fine
thing, because this change was made in the code. and now when I try to put the
same code in the overdues.pm file of my koha 24.05 it just doesn't work.
Can anyone tell me if anything has changed with the koha code? From where does
it calculate the fines?
How can I implement this incremental fine again. ? Our Library Fine Policy is


Fine after Due Date : 

First week after the due date of return: Rs. 25/- per day

Second week after the due date of return: Rs. 50/- per day

Third week after the due date of return: Rs. 75/- per day

Fourth week after the due date of return: Rs. 100/- per day



I the change i made in the was in overdue.pm file was

Open the /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Overdues.pm file and locate the following line  

  $amount = $charge_periods * $issuing_rule->{fine};
Comment this line with # and add the following lines for custom rule preference

        # $amount = $charge_periods * $issuing_rule->{fine};
        #Custom fine rule for CUP Library by Rupinder Singh
        if ($charge_periods < 8){
        $amount = $charge_periods * 25;
        } else {
        if ($charge_periods < 15){
        $amount = 175 + ($charge_periods - 7) * 50;
        } else {
if ($charge_periods < 22){
        $amount = 525 + ($charge_periods - 14) * 75;
        } else {
 $amount = 1050 + ($charge_periods - 21) * 100;
    }
    }
} # else { # a zero (or null) chargeperiod or negative units_minus_grace value
means no charge. 

after making this change, my patrons were charged as per the library fine
policy. 
but it is not working in koha 24.05
