For existing titles that need a new order, allow manual assignment of existing holdings
For serials, very often not every order is for a new title. We often close an order and create a new one when we switch to a different vendor -- this is preferable to changing vendor in order for reasons relating to invoice history -- or, in cases where a title was cancelled and is being reordered but with a different vendor. In either of these scenarios, we would open a new order but would want to continue existing holdings with new issues, not create another holdings record. Currently, we have to create a dummy holding with our POL, then reassign the POL to the preferred existing holding and delete the dummy holding. It would be so much faster if we could choose to assign inventory manually and then search for an existing holding to assign instead of creating a new generic holding
