Comment 16 for bug 1497335

Thanks Kathy,

When Retrieve Last Patron or Retrieve All These Patrons actions are selected, the Last Few Circs modal window closes, then opens the requested patron tabs. In this case, there are no new tabs to open. I had not anticipated this one...

Feedback on the following solutions appreciated:

1. If we can't open any tabs because there are no non-aged circs, disable both Retrieve buttons.

2. If the most recent circ is aged, disable the Retrieve Last Patron button. My thinking here is that no other patrons can really be thought of as the "Last Patron", since an unknown patron came after.

3. If 'Retrieve All These Patrons' is selected, but only some of the circs have linked patrons, alert that not all circs can be retrieved, then retrieve the linked patrons in new tabs as before. Would this alert be more annoying than helpful? Other options?
