Bug Description

Evergreen 3.1.7

When activating a purchase order it will hang indefinitely at 0% if one of the bibliographic records attached to a line item has been deleted.

In the xul client the error "EVENT 1128:BIB_RECORD_DELETED" was returned.

Ideally an error message should be returned in the web client so staff know what they need to fix in order to activate the purchase order

Although that's interesting that you got that error message--I've also encountered this and never gotten the error message. +1 to having one, though.

My thought would be the easiest(?) thing would be to add a check in the PO activation for if eg_bib_id is deleted or is null, indicate which line item is affected. Then users can go undelete the record and try to activate again.

I'd include if it's null because we also have an issue where a line item didn't get linked to a bib, which also stops activation but doesn't *tell* them it's going to stop activation.

None of this would affect the Activate Without Loading Items.
