Remove duplicate items on paging list
Duplicate instances of a single item frequently appear on Bib Paging Lists resulting in confusion and either wasted paper (up to 7 pages were printed for a single item once) or wasted time deleting those lines before printing. There is no need for the paging list to alert us to multiple holds for any item, especially if we can't physically fulfill those holds.

I agree, we've received numerous complaints about this over the years from our member libraries. For example, a book club has 15 holds for one title, a library with 1 available copy has the title repeated on their paging list 15 times.

Any update on this? This was marked "under review" over 5 months ago.

We have received sooooooo many complaints about this system behavior over the years. Staff have had to waste an inordinate amount of time on deduping the produced lists, which has only gotten worse with the introduction of the pagination issue (SIERRA-38727) that was introduced in 6.0.
