Bug ID: 21143
Summary: Mechanism added to permit merging of items
Change sponsored?: ---

For enhancement in item maintenance -- it would be helpful at times to be able
to merge item records just as we do bibliographic records -- be able to select
the fields that we want from each of the items and merge into one.
For example, our library has an older copy of an item that has been lost and
replaced before the lost item was deleted. It would be nice to take the
circulation history of the lost item and merge it onto the new item. This would
be possible if all of the fields of the 952 were able to be merged. One could
select that the 952$l (total checkouts), 952$m (total renewals), and 952$n
(total holds) of the lost item be used on the replacement item. This would help
to remind us WHY we chose to replace the item, since it hasn't circulated since
being purchased! (isn't that always the way!)
This would be much more efficient than deleting the newer item and modifying
the lost item with all the information for the current copy.
