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.

Add electronic delivery undelete functionality
HTML page is available for this but no button or transaction-related functionality exists to allow for users to undelete any delivered files if desired (before expiration).

Retain activity Completed status if other ActivityStatus options are removed from CustomDropDown
By default, the Aeon ActivityStatus includes the options Created, In Progress, Fulfilled, and Completed. Only In Progress and Fulfilled can be changed/removed. However, if both are removed, the Completed option no longer appears. The Completed option should always be present, like Created.

Add transaction status photoduplication status name columns to bundle in staff layout template
Currently, only the Transaction and Photoduplication status IDs appear in the bundle grid. It would be useful for staff to see the full status name, as most are not familiar with the ID.
Additionally, any changes made to this grid should save to the layout template (at individual and template edit levels).

Allow users to sort requests by scheduled date & submission status
All saved and scheduled requests are currently listed in Outstanding Requests, and there isn't a way for users to easily sort out just the requests for their upcoming appointment. There also isn't a good way for them to view when they have an appointment coming up, short of going into each request (and they may have requests scheduled for different days). It would be good if the patron could see the dates they have requests scheduled and the requests scheduled on those dates, as well as be able to sort Submitted vs Saved requests.

When performing search in web, retain selected radio button (active vs all)
When performing a search using the web search, if a user selects the radio option to Search All, it automatically resets to Active after the search results display. Should be set to retain selection.

Post Request via Aeon API
We need the ability to POST requests to Aeon (after acquiring an authentication token). We do not want users to be sent to the Aeon site and leave our finding aids site when making a request, so we would prefer to submit the request in the background. This seems like the most basic integration one could want, yet it's missing from the current API.

Aeon - ArchivesSpace client addon - request for more field mapping options
The University of Arkansas has requested the following mapping options for the ArchivesSpace client addon for Aeon: (1) Map "conditions governing use" note to the Aeon EADNumber field; (2) map location of top container information to the Aeon ItemSubLocation field; (3) for agents that are creators, pull the name from the Sort Name field instead of the Primary Name field (which often contains only the surname); (4) Ability to import the child and grandchild container type and indicator fields (this is not included with the ArchivalObjectInstance field in the addon); (5) Map component identifier to Aeon ItemCallNumber field; and (6)…

Add option to search for user by Organization in client User and Request search
Some libraries receive requests frequently by members of certain organizations like news media, law firms, etc. It would be useful to search by Organization and return results lists for users associated with that organization or requests made by users with that organization. This would help when staff know someone from an organization made a request but they aren't sure who the user is.

Improve request processing for digitized content
If staff have a way to flag that an item is already digitized (perhaps import a field from ArchivesSpace), show container information that items are the same, but can be managed separately. Add logic to ask user if they want digitized or physical version. Auto-close digitized requests to finished queue and email patron to let them know that an alternate copy is available.

Change the "Reset" option to "Clear" or update to "Reset Search" beneath the dashboard search options.
Change the text to "Clear" or "Reset Search" would be more clear and indicative of what happens when you click Reset in the menu beneath the dashboard search options. Users hesitate to click "Reset" because they don't know what it will reset.

Add unique tracking entry when patron has downloaded electronically delivered file
No tracking entry is added when files are downloaded from the user's account after photoduplication delivery. Add entry in tracking table to indicate file was downloaded and make visible in both web and staff client tracking tables for each transaction.

Rename Taiwan on registration form
We had a patron bring this issue to our attention. Right now, when a patron registers in Aeon, the country description for Taiwan is "Taiwan, Province of China." As the patron stated, "I’m aware that many in America are not aware of the political sensitivities around this issue, but at the moment we are still an independent country (which most of us in Taiwan prefer!), so to say we are a province of China is untrue and politically incorrect! Perhaps you can make a note of this to your web designer!"
Is this something that could be updated on the…4 votes -
Allow InvoiceNumber to be visible in the Aeon client
Aeon automatically generates an invoice number for each transaction when an invoice is generated. However, the InvoiceNumber is not visible in any grid in the client. The field can be added, but no data displays.
The field also should be able to be added to the Billing tab.

ArchivesSpace - Aeon Fulfillment Plugin - Make request button available on the container list page
The University of Arkansas would like for the Aeon request button to be available on the container list page in the ArchivesSpace PUI so that a patron can submit a request for an entire box. Many patrons browse by box, so it would be convenient to have the request button available where they are browsing. It would also help with collection-level-only records that have a container list. Since they don't want the request button available at the collection level for records that do have components, this button would be helpful for records that only have a collection-level description (typically resources…

Aeon - ArchivesSpace addon - allow for importing a container instance associated with an access record
The University of Arkansas would like for the Import Container option to be available in the ArchivesSpace addon for the Aeon client, for accession records that have a container instance. Right now, only the Import Citation option is available for accession records. The container and associated location information would be helpful for staff to have in order to retrieve materials.
