  1. Allow researchers to cancel their appointments up until their appointment time

    It would be great if researchers could cancel their own appointments within the minimum lead timeframe.

  2. Validate fields in staff client

    A method to validate / require data fields in the staff client, but using separate rules from the web validation.

    We're starting to get too many entries where staff are manually entering data that is not consistent. Even just making a field required would be a big win for us (ie, Call Number)

  3. 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.

  4. Update default ItemCancellation email to use CancelNote instead of ReasonForCancellation

    CancelNote has more details than ReasonForCancellation and should be used by default.

  5. Cloned Requests Inheriting the status of original request?

    Is it possible for cloned requests to inherit the status of the original requests instead of the requests starting over in Awaiting Request Processing? We would like to be able to clone requests and have them retain the same status as the original requests from which they are cloned.

  6. Add associated appointments to info displayed in request lists

    An option to show patrons which requests they have linked to an appointment in the "Outstanding Requests," "All Requests" etc. lists would be great.

  7. Allow one request to have associated Activities, Appointments, etc

    If a Transaction could be turned into a Parent transaction or some such thing, it would be helpful for associating one request with multiple activities, appointments, etc

  9. Allow Aeon to send requests to ILLiad for reproduction fulfillment

    The University of Baltimore would like the reverse functionality of the current integration between Aeon and ILLiad. They would like to send Aeon reproduction requests to ILLiad. This is because Access Services staff use ILLiad to manage certain reproduction requests from Special Collections. They think it would be easier for Access Services staff to work in ILLiad on these requests instead of having AS staff work in Aeon. When the requests are fulfilled, ILLiad would update Aeon and make the reproductions available to the patron.

  10. Customizable Print Template for Appointment Calendar

    Allow for the customization of the print template used for appointment calendar (as a word doc) so it can only show working hours and other visual changes

  11. Check Out Item/ Reshelve Item / On HOLD

    Would be more efficient to scan TN barcodes directly into Check Out Item/ Reshelve Item / On HOLD fields that can be located at the top of the Homepage without searching for the request first. Would be even more beneficial to not have to click on a Check Out Item/Reshelve Item/On Hold icon if we could just scan directly into a field and that is how the request would be automatically processed (without clicking on icons)

  12. 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.

  13. Appointment Based Request Limits

    It would be great if we had the option to set global request limits as well as appointment specific request limits. Ie, a user may be limited to 20 requests total, but only 5 of those could be for one appointment.

  14. Create separate NewUserRegistration email templates for RemoteAuth and AeonAuth

    Information provided to different types of users may need to be different when confirming registration. Different email templates would allow sites to provide the necessary details to affiliate vs non-affiliate users. Should include a key to determine whether the same or different emails should be sent to patrons.

  15. Aeon scheduling: block off Saturday/Sunday/weekend

    We would like appt scheduling options to automatically block out the weekend so that it doesn't count in 1) the "lead time" or 2) for available appt requests.

  19. Ability to import affiliate user records into a validation table

    The University of Baltimore also uses ILLiad and Ares. They import their affiliate user records into a validation table. When a new affiliate user logs into the web interface, their info from the validation table populates the registration form. They would like this functionality in Aeon.
