--- Comment #14 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer at bsz-bw.de> ---
This script is potentially dangerous as it deletes data in an unrecoverable
way.

Maybe we should have a very clear warning about the consequences of this in the
script before you can run it.  

Deleting orders and baskets has some consequences like losing the acquisition
history shown in the items tab in staff detail page. 

Also if you are not careful with the date, you will mess up the amounts in your
funds and budgets for a fiscal year. Really bad.

I never had this request from one of our libraries and I can't help but wonder
why you wouldn't want to keep the data. I wonder if it's display problems being
the reason for this request or some law requirement?
