One day late patrons were restricted even with dropbox mode activated
1) Check in the calendar (Tools/Calendar), that the
previous days you are about to use as date due are
really entered as opening day (never know).
2) Add a suspension in the suspension days parameter
of the circulation rules (Administration/Circulation
and fine rules) to the MOST specific category of
borrower and MOST specific type of document among the
existing rules of the LOGGED IN Site(cf explications
in the circ-rules page).
3) Choose a borrower using the search by category and an
item through the advanced search using the limit by type.
4) Checkout the item selecting the previous opening date
in the Specify-due-date box.
5) Click on Circulation in the upper menu, then on Checkin
and check the Book drop mode. The Book drop date showed
should be the previous opening date.
6) Check in the item : you can see that the patron is restricted
7) apply the patch
8) Redo 1 to 5 : Now, you can see that the patron is not restricted.
9) If you redo the test with two day late, you will see that
the patron is not restricted : that's ok because his
restriction of one day is already finished.
10) If you redo the test with more than two day late, you see
that the patron restriction is, as expected, one day shorter
than it were if the item had been returned without dropbox mode.

According to the manual, "Items will stay in the PROC location until
they are checked in".
This is not the actual behavior. Right now items will only change from
PROC to CART, and that is only if InProcessingToShelvingCart is enabled.
Some libraries want to use the PROC to permanent location feature,
without using the CART.
Additionally, the location is only removed if using returns.pl, but
that is not what the manual says either. What if the library uses
SIP2 devices for handling returns? This should be taken into
account.
Test Plan:
1) Apply this patch
2) Set an item's current location to PROC, and it's permananet location
to a different location.
3) Check the item in any way you wish
4) Note the shelving location is updated to the permanent location
5) prove t/db_dependent/Circulation/Returns.t

I tested this with items which had items.location set to 'PROC' and
items.permanent_location set to NULL, '', and a real value, and it
worked correctly in all cases. I tested with check-ins from returns.pl
and from the table of checkouts in circulation and the PROC location was
correctly removed in both cases.

This patch adds a better check in message for patrons with indefinite restriction.
To test:
Check out an item to a patron.
Add a manual restriction without expiry date to that patron.
Check in the item.
Without patch, the checkin message reads:
Reminder: Patron was earlier restricted until 9999-12-31

Test Plan:
In "Tools" -> "Rotating Collections" -> "Add/Remove items":
When adding item barcodes to the collection, the input field
<input type="text" id="barcode" name="barcode">
should become active
automatically so it is easy to add multiple barcodes rapidly without touching the
mouse or keyboard.
Enter-press is dealt by the barcode reader so automatic form submittal should be handled
by the barcode reader.
In "Rotating collections" -> "Transfer Collection":
When the collection is initially transferred, items are set to trasfer correctly.
When the collection is transferred while items are still being transferred, the transfer
destination library doesn't change from the original one.
The holding library changes for all items in the collection to the destination library on
retransfers as well.
This is tricky if a user accidentally places the wrong destination.
When I try to checkin these items to their new retransfer location, I get the following messages:
-"This item is part of a rotating collection and needs to be transferred to <original transfer destination>"
-"Please return Valkoinen ihmissyj / to <original transfer destination>"
-"Print slip or Cancel transfer"
When I checkin a Item to a arbitrary branch, I get the following messages:
"This item is part of a rotating collection and needs to be transferred to <retransfer destination>"
"Please return Valkoinen ihmissyj / to <original trasfer destination>"

Sometimes libraries need to backdate returns further back in time than
Koha's dropbox mode will allow. The returns backdating will check in an
item as if it had been returned on the specified date, and will reduce
any fine accordingly.
This feature is activated by a new system preference, SpecifyReturnDate.
Test Plan:
1) Apply this patch
2) Check out an item, and backdate the due date by 1 month or so
* This issue needs to generate a fine
3) Run fines.pl to generate the fine
4) Browse to returns.pl
5) Specify a return date of the day after the specified due date
6) Check the borrowers issue history, you should see the backdated
return date, rather than today's date
7) Check the fine, it should be reduced to a fine for a single day
overdue, rather than the previous larger fine.

This patch adds a new column to item types. Text in this column is
displayed as a warning when an item of the given type is checked in.
The type of message can also be chosen, affecting how the message is
displayed.
Use case: Items that are on inter-library loan can have a separate
item type, and when items of this type are checked in a message
saying something like "ILL! Remember to return it to the owning
library!" can be displayed.
To test:
- Apply the patch
- Go to Home > Administration > Item types administration
- Check that there is a new column, called "Check in message"
- Edit an item type and add a check in message
- Check that the check in message you added is displayed in the table
- Check in an item with an item type that has a check in message
- Check that the message is displayed
- Repeat the steps above, but select "Alert" instead of the default
"Message" as the "Check in message type". Check that the message
is displayed in a yellow alert box, not a blue message box.
- Check in an item with an item type that does *not* have a check
in message, and make sure no false messages are displayed
- Create a new item type from scratch and check that it works
the way it is supposed to
- Run the tests in t/ItemType.t, which are updated by this patch
This patch also removes backticks around column names in the
itemtypes table in installer/data/mysql/kohastructure.sql
UPDATE 2013-07-22
- Rebased on current master (no changes)
- Added "AFTER summary" to the SQL statement in updatedatabase.pl
- Added another placeholder on line 170 of admin/itemtypes.pl

If the ReturnToShelvingCart syspref is on, and something needs to go in transit,
the shelving cart setting is overriding the transit.
What seems to be happening is this:
* Item is checked in, and flagged as needing to go in transit from A to B.
* Item is immediately flagged as shelving cart, though. Current display says both shelving cart and in transit.
* After the cart-to-shelf script runs, item comes out of transit and
shows as being available at the destination library, although it hasn't
arrived yet and no one has manually checked it in.

When a hold is placed on an item where the pickup location is
different than the holding library, Koha initiates a branch
transfer for that item to fill that hold when items is run through
the returns system.
If the item is then run through returns a second time, the system is
supposed to close that transfer as a 'wrongtransfer', and open a new
transfer with the same from and to branches as the original.
The problem is that the original transfer is closed, but the new
transfer is not created. This is because at some point, someone
replaced the template variable WrongTransfer, which had previously
contained the branchcode for the library to transfer to, with the
full name of the library instead ( I assume to make a look nicer ).
Solved by removing the line that was changing the variable contents
from the branchcode to the branch name, and adding a new TT filter,
KohaBranchName that functions in the same way as KohaDates, except
it takes a branchcode and returns the branch name for the given
branchcode.
The consequence of this, is the the name of the library is passed to updateWrongTransfer instead of the branchcode, causing the failure.

Some code coming from BibLibre has been lost in the process of inclusion in
3.4. The result is that fine in days does not work at all (you can setup rules,
but it does nothing)
Step to reproduce:
- Koha > Admin > circ rules > set 1 day fine every day of overdue for default
rule
- Issue a book return date last week
- check-in the book => no debarment is set
The following patch will fix all of those problems by :
* updating borrowers.debarred to a date field (instead of tinyint). It contains
the limit of the debarment
* changing API of DebarMember and UpdateBorrowerDebarred to pass a date
* display debarrdate where applicable. Note that a debarrdate of 31/12/9999 is
considered as unlimited and not displayed
* added a debarrcomment, usefull to explain why a patron is debarred (this is
independant from debarrdate changes and can be used when placing an unlimited
debarment too)
[2011-05-12] F. Demians. It works as described. And I can confirm this
functionality is impatiently awaited by French libraries since one year. Thanks
BibLibre for the good work and for contributing this code.

Adds a new system preference, RecordLocalUseOnReturn, which when active will change the statistical
entry type from "return" to "localuse" in AddReturn() if the material was not on loan when returned.
The intended use-case here is for libraries with 'open' book drops, in which patrons can put locally
used (but unissued) materials.
Adds a small message to the user interface to confirm that Local Use was recorded.
This change opens up the possibility to record more types of statistics on return; one would just need
