Koha 3.6 Change in Marking Lost Items
Handy CKLS Tips
Koha Issues and Troubleshooting
When an item that is checked out is marked lost, the patron it is checked out to is automatically charged a replacement fee. If the item is found and checked back in, then the patron's account is automatically credited the replacement fee.
I have turned Circulation Sounds. This will cause a chime during circulation to help catch when an item isn't scanned in correctly. Should we decide we don't like it, I can turn it off again.
