  1. 2. Replace print call slip button with print request button for staff requests on next step menu

    We have different templates for patrons and staff. It would be nice to replace the icon in the next step menu with print requests for staff requests.

  2. Hide unused templates from the client Email dropdown

    Aeon default email templates cannot be deleted or renamed, However, unused templates display in the Email dropdown in the client. It would be useful to add an option to hide unused email templates from the client.

  3. Increase field lengths in LocalInfo table

    In the LocalInfo table, SystemName, InstitutionName, and LibraryName are limited to 50 characters. Institutions with multiple sites often wish to combine library names into 1 field or create a system name that is slightly longer. Increasing the character limit to 100 for these fields would provide added flexibility.

  4. Have the Site field set based on the staff user's DBC when creating requests from an Excel

    If a staff user forgets to include the Site value when creating requests from an Excel file, the Site is set to blank and the requests are not visible to staff. It would be helpful to have the Site value automatically set based on the user's DBC in the same way it is set when single requests are created in the client.

  5. Add tracking to request history when item is uploaded

    No tracking entry is added when files are uploaded for photoduplication requests. Add entry in tracking table to indicate file was uploaded as there is currently no way to know aside from clicking the Upload Item button a second time to get an dialog box indicating a file has already been uploaded.

  6. Add unique tracking entry to Request history when Photoduplication is initialized

    Currently, tracking just says "Request Information Modified" but it's not always clear to staff that someone just clicked Initialize Photoduplication rather than just changing the request information.

  7. Option to Print a Callslip from Awaiting Future Request Processing

    It would be helpful to be able to print callslips from the Awaiting Future Request Processing queue/status and have the requests route to In Item Retrieval. There are times when staff might page materials from this queue.

  8. Uncleared users should expire in the same way as cleared users

    Most users that just make photoduplication requests never get cleared and so they never expire and get prompted to update their contact information. It would be helpful for all users to expire regardless of whether they have ever been cleared.

  9. Ability to have a virtual reading room

    Several Aeon users at RBMS 2018 have talked about the need for a virtual reading room to provide controlled access to born digital/digitized materials

  10. Support for the Square payment gateway

    The Boston Athenaeum uses Square for our other payments and we would love to be able to use it with Aeon as well, rather than using another payment gateway. https://squareup.com/developers

  12. Automatically close user record once user is signed in

    We would like not to have to manually close a user record once a user is signed in to the reading room.

  14. Pull in/map additional data from remote auth login to Aeon user registration.

    Allow better mapping of additional information from LDAP and Shibboleth for remote auth registration.

    Example: if value passing as username is email address, also allow this value to populate the Email Address field on the registration form.

  15. Copy and paste from cells in tables

    On the queue and flag tables, we used to be able to click a cell and copy just that information. We can't after the new version update. A fix for this would be incredibly beneficial.

  16. Add a notification to Aeon client for new signed-in users

    It would be great to have a notification in the Aeon cient for new signed-in users. We have our site set up so that the receptionist signs users into Aeon when they arrive, and then they walk upstairs to the reading room, where they are assigned a seat number by the reading room supervisor.

    The reading room staff would find it helpful to get a pop-up notification for new signed-in users so they know when to expect people walking into the reading room.

    We would want an alert every time they sign in, not just on the first visit.

  18. Mark staff as inactive in staff manager

    It would be nice to have the ability to mark staff as Inactive in the staff client. Our staff list is starting to grow as people rotate through, especially students and project archivists. Marking staff inactive would allow us to filter the list, and also it could be a convenient way to prevent disable inactive accounts from logging in.

  19. Print an invoice from any screen

    We would like to be able to print an invoice from any screen (like you can for a callslip) instead of having to open each request, open the billing tab, and them print the invoice.

  20. Allow users to upload their own files to their own transactions

    Some sites allow users to take their own photos while in the reading room. They may find it useful to upload those photos to the transaction / their own account, so they can keep track of which photos were for which items.
