Diane,

When a new copy is created to replace a deleted copy, the prior circulation stats stay on the deleted copy. Depending on how statistical reports are formed, those stats on the deleted copy may be lost. They certainly do not show up as stats for the new copy.

I think the bug is asking for a way to roll the stats from the old copy forward to the new one when a copy is being replaced. This way the old circ stats show up in the staff client and on reports.

Wait. I didn't think circ stats were lost when an item is deleted. The checkout has been recorded and won't be erased just because the item no longer exists. Like when I retire, the work I have done over twenty years doesn't disappear.

What am I missing?

Thank you!

    Public bug reported:

    It'd be helpful if the system allowed the ability to merge circ
    statistics on books (in particular the circulation count) so that when
    we delete one copy of a book, we don't lose the total counts for the
    title.
