Good find, Amy. You're hired :)

Though, the way I read that page, the context is job history display.

Not sure whether TOU calculations are actually affected. I'll have to open a ticket to find out.

(The general idea of 01:00 to 24:59 even being a thing is news to me. But may be a standard in some countries, I guess.)

Wade, I just found this which indicates that Alma interprets 24:00 as 00:00 if the system_time_format uses kk instead of HH (I think)

24:00 is midnight, so midnight tonight.

I believe this has something to do with the students expiring today.

The TOU for Quarter loans has closed library due date management set to 'no change', and the students expiring on that same day.

Too late for this quarter, but change the 'closed library due date management' value for that TOU to Move Due Time to Upcoming Closing Time.

There may be something else, but I believe that's the crux.

I don't see the fine on the patron's record any longer, though. Did you already remove those?

Anyway, Lesley, you deserve extra special credit for working so hard so close to your maternity leave, both on Primo VE, this, and I'm sure numerous other things. Seriously, bravo.

I wonder if your newborn is going to be some kind of Alma / Primo savant? Let's hope not :) (And though I'm sure you'll be tempted, don't name them 'Alma'. Otherwise you'll be troubleshooting Alma the rest of your life. :)

Moreover, why did Alma decide 24:00 in the first place?

All of our students who had quarterly checkouts are being charged a $5 late fine:

Does Alma think 12/12 24:00 already happened? ... Did it? :)
