Description Iming Chan 2014-03-23 05:01:56 UTC
In OPAC/staff catalogue, show number of item(s) on order without having to create item record(s).  We have opted to create item record only when receive ordered goods, because this allowed us to cancel an order, without also having to delete linked item record(s).  Currently item record(s) must be created in order for such information to be presented in OPAC or staff catalogue.

Ideally, "On Order" information should be presented similarly to number of reservation(s) attached to each catalogue record, such as:

[Qty] on order; or

[Qty] on order for [Holding Library 1]; [Qty] on order for [Holding Library 2], etc.

Perhaps we then specify whether to show a grand quantity total on order, or quantity breakdown for each holding library.

I think bug 11169 could be what you are looking for.
