[Wactclc-alma] Fine accrual for laptop didn't accrue a $2.00 fine

[Whittaker, Shellie]

It looks like the Grace Period policy might be in play  (I do understand that your intent is to have no grace)

You have 2 "no grace" policies:

This is the one that is active in the 1 week laptop TOU.

This is the other one:

I recommend you switch the Grace Period policy in the 1 Week Student Laptop TOU to the one that has Value Type of "none."  The second one listed above.

I can't put my finger on exactly what is going on, but I don't see anything else amiss or suspect in your configuration.

And other institutions who are using fines/fees in their TOUs with no grace period are using a policy like the second one (with no Value Type)

Hi,

I just returned a laptop that was late by 1 day.  It was due on 1/24 and it was returned today.  The $2.00 fine didn't accrue like it should have.  I looked at the barcode and the item and it's under the right loan type/TOU.  I'm not sure why it didn't accrue a fine.  Can you help me figure out this mystery?

Here's a screenshot of the laptop return screen so you can see the barcode of the item as well as the due date and the return date.
