You do realise you can see the reports on all these error scenarios in the admin UI at https://libraries-dcb-hub-admin-scaffold-uat-git-production-knowint.vercel.app/serviceInfo/requestErrors, if you then click on the title in then lists you all the associated requests with that error.

I favor the suggestion of cancelling the supplier side hold and would also suggest logging a non-fatal error for customer support to further investigate. To prioritize the backlog, I would like to understand the frequency of this error from 6/12/24. This seems like something FSE could handle so i can redirect.
