            Bug ID: 31268
           Summary: Clearly indicate reason for failed item creation when
                    receiving expired subscription
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: Serials
          Assignee: koha-bugs at lists.koha-community.org

Bug 29188 points out that while the manual says one cannot receive issues in an
expired subscription, Koha is currently allowing one to do so.

However, Koha *is* refusing to create an item when receiving an issue on an
expired subscription. 

To recreate:
1 - create a subscription set to *not* create items, subscription end date in
the past
2 - save subscription, confirm it shows as expired, confirm you can receive an
issue anyway
3 - create a subscription set *to* create items, subscription end date in the
past
4- save subscription, confirm it shows as expired, confirm you can get to the
receiving page but setting the dropdown for the expected issue to "Arrived"
does not cause an item edit box to appear
5- create a subscription set *to* create items, subscription end date in the
future, number of issues set to 1
6- save subscription, receive 1 issue, confirm it works as intended
7- confirm subscription now shows a confusing "Subscription will expire on
[subscription end date]" message even though the date isn't the problem
8- Attempt to receive another issue, confirm that now the item edit box won't
pop up, as in step 4

In steps 4 and 8, the item edit box will appear if one attempts to receive a
supplemental issue, but the item will refuse to save, giving an erroneous
"missing required field" message.
