Patron Preferred Pronouns (Polaris)
We would like an optional field in the patron record for preferred pronouns. This field should be available at the top of all patron registration views near Last name, First name, Title etc. It should be available to display on the Patron Status and Check-out screens via System Administration under Parameters, Patron Services, Check-out: Optional patron data.

Un-cancel a purchase order line item

Un-cancelling the POLI would also allow us to maintain the connection between the POLI and the Invoice Line Item.
