             Bug #: 7593
           Summary: merging bib records loses connection to order line
    Classification: Unclassified
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: master
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: Acquisitions
        AssignedTo: henridamien at koha-fr.org
        ReportedBy: nengard at gmail.com
         QAContact: koha.sekjal at gmail.com


Many libraries follow this process:

1. Enter brief record in Aquisitions basket
2. Receive items in Aquisitions
3. Cataloger pulls in full record
4. Merge full record and Acq record

Now, if you do this and choose the new full record as your base record then you
end up losing the connection to the order line because in essence the bib
record that was on that order has been deleted.  

We need some sort of check in place to prevent this from happening. The easiest
I can think of is to update the bib number in the order line as part of the
merge record process, but I'm up for any suggestion that does not mean that we
have to trust the user to choose the Acq order record as their base and then
check all the boxes for all the fields on the full record by hand.
