  2. Cancelling an appointment shouldn't automatically cancel requests

    I would also like to see cancelling an appointment not auto route a request to request finished. I would rather see it disassociated with an appointment so that staff can route / clone appropriately.

  3. Adding waitlist functionality for appointment module

    We would love to see a waitlist functionality for users to sign up for when our reading room is full and a cancellation occurs. It would make slotting existing users in much easier as we're now trying to do this manually / on the fly as cancellations occur.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.…

  8. Would like an email notification from Aeon when a patron has paid for an order

    Georgia State University is using TouchNet to allow patrons to pay for orders via credit card. It is not enough of a notification that the order status changes to “Awaiting Item Delivery,” as there will be multiple orders in that queue at a time, including for patrons who weren’t charged, as well as pending file delivery from vendors. It’s difficult to understand which requests are new from TouchNet payments. They would ideally like for Aeon to send an email notification, or at least display some kind of flag on the Aeon client. For now, they are looking into TouchNet to…

  9. 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?

  10. Popup Notice for New Appointments

    Could we have a notification pop up when someone makes a new appointment, the same way we get notices when a patron makes a new request, submits a photodup request, or creates a new account?

  11. Appointment Scheduling - Change military time view to 12-hour time view

    The University of Pittsburgh would like for the Appointment Scheduling tab in the customization manager to display the Open Hours as 12-hour times instead of in military time.

  13. 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.

  14. Categories in the Process Ribbon menu

    Is it possible to add the ability to categorize items in the Process Ribbon menu on the top of the dashboard screen in the client? Much like one can define categories of queues/statuses in the Routing menu, can we also create sub-menus in the Process Ribbon? We have quite a number of statuses we have added to the Process Ribbon menu, and it would be helpful to categorize them for our different locations.

  15. More flexibility for multi-site instances that use appointments and need to transfer requests to another site

    The University of Pittsburgh needs to be able to temporarily transfer requests to another site in order to have that site pull material. That site will pull the material, and then route the request back to the original site. However, since both sites have their own reading rooms, the scheduled appointment in one reading room prevents the transfer of the request to another sites. Both of these sites can view each other's requests.

    If we configure each site to have both reading rooms, the transfer works. However, on the web side, with this configuration, patrons can then choose one location,…

  16. 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.

  17. Allow a patron to copy the primary mailing address information to the secondary address fields

    The University of Pittsburgh uses both the main address and secondary address blocks on the registration pages for their patrons. For non-affiliates, they want to capture permanent and local/work addresses; for affiliates, they want to capture permanent and local/campus addresses. They would like for some kind of button that allows the patron to automatically populate the secondary address fields if the address was the same for both address blocks - similar to shipping and billing addresses on e-commerce sites.

  18. Add Appointment Info to Signed-in User details

    It would be helpful if the signed-in users panel displayed the current time duration for a user's appointment so that staff would be easily reminded of each user's time limit

  19. 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.
