Aeon - ArchivesSpace Client addon - allow staff to choose which instance to import
The University of Pittsburgh would like the ability to choose which instance to import when material is linked to more than one instance. Right now, Aeon imports the first listed instance. If the first listed instance is a digital object, Aeon imports that information instead of the physical container information.

Appointments - different configurations for different request forms
Boston Public Library would like the ability to have certain request forms, based on the format of the requested material, require longer lead times for appointment scheduling that are different from the reading room's typical appointment settings. The University of Pittsburgh would like to have some web request forms that are intended to be used by staff who don't have access to the Aeon client but need to submit requests for preservation, to not require appointments, while the other patron web request forms do require appointments.

Aeon 5.2 includes a status-specific appointment feature, which allows staff to set different lead time and appointment requirements based on user status.

Prevent duplicate accounts
A way to prevent (or at least limit the number of) users creating duplicate accounts by not allowing a user to use the same email address to create a new account, but then have them prompted to "Change Password" if they try to create a new account using the same email address.

Aeon Fulfillment Plugin for ArchivesSpace PUI - Creation date should be pulled from Start/End Date fields
Currently, when requesting from the ArchivesSpace PUI, the ASpace <#creationdate> mapping is pulling from the Expression field in the Dates sub-record. The University of Baltimore does not use this field usually (and this is true of other archives), so the ItemDate field in Aeon is not getting populated. They would like for the <#creationdate> to pull from the Start/End Date fields, or, if possible, pull from the dates info that is displaying in the component record on the PUI side.

Modify Long Text custom fields to truly be Long Text
The new custom fields are fantastic, with one exception: the Long Text field is still limited to 255 characters.
Ideally, this limit would be removed and the Long Text field would be NVARCHAR(MAX).
At the risk of saying "well, that's easy," having a "LongText NVARCHAR(MAX)" field definition in the CustomFieldValues table seems reasonable enough.

Support alternate date formats in web date pickers
In both the Scheduled Date calendar and Appointment calendars, Aeon should support alternate (non-US) date formats, such as DD/MM/YYYY.

Add additional clearance options or option to create custom clearance statuses
Some sites would like to use Disavow ONLY as a security status for users who should not be allowed to use materials. Merging users should include more nuance and set clearance status as Duplicate (or something custom) rather than Disavowed so staff can more easily differentiate between inactive users.

Display flag when viewing transaction
The only way to tell when viewing a transaction that it is flagged seems to be to notice that "Remove Flag" is an option. Would like to something that is more noticeable.

Different parameters for cleared and uncleared users
We would like the ability to establish different parameters for appointment-making/request-adding for cleared (established) and uncleared (new) users to facilitate paging from the Reading Room.

Add -force option to Aeon Server update scripts
Add -force option to Aeon Server update scripts to make the update scripts download and install the latest, no matter what.
A couple of times I've run into instances where the update scripts failed for some reason, but then subsequent runs state no updates are available, yet some of the files have not been updated.

Add "open" exception type to appointment scheduling tab
Allow staff to set an "open" exception for cases where the reading room is open. For example: if the reading room is open one Saturday per month, it would be preferable to set the open hours for Saturday and check a box to indicate the library is closed. But then add an "open" exception to indicate which Saturday is open rather than adding exceptions for all closed days.

Form-specific Status text
Not all requests are the same, so not all web forms are the same semantically, so the status text on a form may benefit from being customized to the form semantics or origin. Right now, SLShowRequest and SLEditRequest in Customization Manager handle status lines for all requests. If we want to have different text for, say, the Photoduplication form from the Monograph form, we have to have empty values for SLShowRequest and SLEditRequest, and to add text to each form's HTML file. This also means adding text to each form's HTML file that should in fact get the same text.…

ArchivesSpace - Aeon Client Addon - allow for custom default repository selection
The University of Pittsburgh has a number of repositories. The repositories are sorted in identifier/creation order, and the first repository is considered the default repository when a staff person logs into ASpace in any browser. In Pittsburgh's case, the default repository has to constantly be changed to another repository that is more frequently used. There is an open ticket for ArchivesSpace about this: https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/ANW-630?jql=text%20~%20%22default%20repository%22. Would it be possible to direct the addon to select a repository by default, saving staff from having to perform the manual steps?
