In the past, if a patron had any credit existing on their account (newly added, or pre-existing), if debts were present then the credit balance would always be immediately applied to the debt. This functionality was inadvertently removed during refactoring efforts which debuted in 16.11.
+ This patch adds code to restore the functionality and allows it to be optionally applied to the system via a new system preference, AccountAutoReconcile.
+ Note: The new preference defaults to the post 16.11 behaviour, if you wish to restore the 16.11 functionality then you will need to update the preference after the upgrade.

+
+ + + +
