Re: Fines - a week apart?

[Eileen_Powell@xxxxxxxxxx]

This may or may not help, I'm not a tech.
When we were setting up the fines,we wanted a $5 fine every four hours for
overdue study rooms with a maximum $30 and then we bill.  It only worked
out when we figured it at $1.25 per hour overdue.  Maybe that was because
the study rooms were checked out on an hourly basis.
Our max fine is $30.  $1.25 x 24 hours = $30.  And it worked.

**I originally sent this on Dec. 20. I received one response from
someone who thought I could do it, but I'm still hoping to hear from
someone who is actually doing it (or has tried it and found it to
definitely be impossible)!***

Our AV department would like to change the way fines are charged for
their equipment. They'd like to have the initial fine be $15, leave it
at that for a week, then after 7 days raise it to $25, then 7 days
later raise it again to $35.

I've tried wading through the manual, but can't figure out if this is
possible - and if so, how to do it.

So I'm hoping that either someone has a similar setup (fine stays the
same for a week, then goes up - instead of increasing each day) and
can help me out, or has wanted to do this and found it to be
impossible.

Thanks in advance for your help!
