Setting Fine Codes

Fine codes represent the various fine policies used in combination with patron codes to determine fine amounts. Fine codes are displayed as selections in the Fines policy table and the Fine code box on the Item Record workform.

Fine codes are defined as entries in the Fine Codes policy table, which can be displayed on an organization workform or with the Administration Explorer. Fine codes can be added from the system, library, and branch organization levels, but they are then available to all organizations. You cannot delete fine code entries in Polaris Administration, but the system administrator can change the Fine Codes table using the Query Analyzer in SQL Server.

Note:
These System Administration permissions are required to modify this table: Access administration: Allow, Access tables: Allow, Modify fine codes table: Allow.
