Item counts on PO and Invoice Headers
It would be beneficial to have a total item count in the header of POs and Invoices for quick reference. Currently there is no easy way to get this count from a PO or Invoice because there is not even a row count column under the items view.

We just had an instance where being able to quickly identify the number of items after releasing a PO is important. A library was missing an item when the order arrived, even though the bib was linked to the POLI. There's no good way to tell what happened, and even though I've never seen Polaris not create an item when releasing a PO (if that option is selected), the library does not think they accidentally deleted or moved it. Going forward I advised them to check the item view after releasing a PO to ensure items were created based on the number ordered. However, manually counting the lines takes a lot of time for larger orders. Having a count on both the bib and item views would really help for quick checks.

This would be so helpful when verifying the actual quantity in an order, not just the number of POLI/titles.

This would be a great preliminary check. Good idea.
