Currently in acquisitions, it is challenging to move items from one record to another. While it can sometimes be accomplished by re-opening baskets, and manipulating data, it would be preferred to make item management easier. There should also be a permission to go along with this to control who has the ability to do so. An example of the situation from one library: I've found a good number of errors from a few years ago, order records added to bib records of older editions of similar titles, which causes payments to seem to go 'missing'. It's causing a lot of headache. We would definitely like to be able to 1, move an order (any status, received or not) to another basket without otherwise having to change the basket it was in, and without having to manually re-enter the order (entailing that that order would be assigned to whatever bib rec the new basket is attached to) -- 2, assign an order to a different bib record while leaving it in it's same basket (entailing that the basket it is in would detach from the that bib rec, unless there are other orders in the same basket attached to that bib rec).
I am not sure about the use case here. What you can already do: - If you are creating your items on order or on receive, you can move the items or merge the records and the order information should follow (if we broke that, this would be a bug) - You can transfer order lines from one basket to another leaving a trail of what happened in the old basket. What is the thing we are missing? For new features, it's good to file them against master - 18.11 will be end of life soon and new features go into master first.
We weren't able to clarify the request as of yet - I am closing INVALID, please re-open if you can help specifying this one.
