    Problem Symptoms:
    ?€¢ Attempting to delete the holding (MFHD) record in Cataloging results in error message: "Unable to delete holding record. PO must be deleted first."

    Cause:
    MFHD record is attached to a purchase order and/or invoice. The PO or invoice must be deleted before deleting the MFHD - these are attached in the database, and the links should not be broken.

    Resolution:
    1. Delete the purchase order or invoice before deleting the MFHD record
    OR
    2. Suppress the MFHD from the OPAC (optional: place local note in MFHD that this holding no longer exists).
