           Summary: Multiple parts handling - confirmation alert

Koha already has a field in the item record to identify multi-part material.
Materials specified (bound volume or other part) or 952$3. When there is a
value in this field (e.g. 2) Koha will prompt you at checkout and checkin with
a message dialog which says:

Note about the accompanying materials: 2

This is helpful but can be missed by library staff. This enhancement takes this
one step further to introduce a confirmation box to acknowledge that the parts
have been checked on issue and return. This prevents staff from proceeding
before checking the item in their hands.  

The reason for this is to prevent arguments with library patrons that they did
not originally take all the parts or that they did not return all the parts.
For example, a CD with an accompanying booklet or a string quartet with 4
parts.
