Fine Terms explained

#Koha IRC channel to the rescue again:

Sharon: question – what does FU mean in the fines table?
pianohacker: Updated Overdue Fine
pianohacker: That is, one that has been increased since it was first added to the patron’s account
Sharon: so an automatically updated fine – sort of koha generated or koha advanced
pianohacker: Kind of. Overdue fines are automatically generated anyway
pianohacker: When they’re first added, they’re F; if they’re incremented, they become FU
Sharon: thank you

pianohacker = Jesse, our neighbor in Colorado.
