  1. Allow patron to cancel photoduplication order if they do not want to approve the invoice

    When an invoice is generated in Aeon, it's made visible for the patron to approve in the web. But there is no option for patrons to cancel that request if they do not wish to approve the invoice.

  2. Scheduled Closures

    Add the ability to enter closure dates for a range of dates rather than just individual days.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. Allow users associated with activities to clone any request associated with an activity

    Add a customization key to let sites determine if users associated with activities should be allowed to clone requests they do not own.

    Many sites create requests on behalf of faculty or other users for the activity. If the request is in the staff person's account rather than the faculty person's account, the faculty person cannot easily re-request that item.

  9. Allow users to select multiple dates/date spans in the Aeon appointment calendar

    We desperately need for users to be able to choose more than one date on the calendar via a single request form. For researchers visiting for one week, for example, we would like them to be able to select their needed materials (from a finding aid, for example), and then be able to select the entire week they propose to visit, as opposed to having to submit a form for each day they want to visit (what if they are viewing one large collection for that entire week, for example - now they have to submit a form for each…

  10. Open electronically delivered items in separate tab or window

    Add the functionality to have the electronically delivered file(s) open in a separate tab or window in the web browser. This way the user can still have their Aeon account viewable.

  13. Advance # of days to request - users signed into reading room condition

    My understanding is that in Appointments 2.0, the advance # of days to book an appointment and requests will be split into two keys. In an forthcoming Appointments release, is it possible to create a condition or third key related to users signed into the reading room?

    Our issue right now is that we have users who are in the RR who need to place requests for the afternoon paging time but they cannot because they are limited by the advance days limit - so staff have to ask researchers what they want, tell them to save for later, and…

  15. Make cancellation and other status lines editable for payment gateway transactions

    The cancel statuses that display if a payment has been cancelled are not always clear to the patron. Sites would like to be able to edit these message, but they are currently controlled by the DLL. It would be helpful to move these to the HTML code so they can be customized as needed,

  16. User ability to extend/renew hold online

    Our users would like the ability to extend/renew their holds online. We currently extend holds upon request in the reading room but for off-site materials it would be helpful for users to be able to do this without visiting the reading room.

  18. Allow reading rooms to be reordered in Appointment Scheduling tab

    The order in which reading rooms are created dictates how they display in the Reading Room dropdown on the web pages. Add support to drag the reading rooms to change the display order.

  19. Add the ability to schedule partial closures

    Add the ability to schedule partial closures within the customization manager. Because of instruction held frequently in the reading room, I would like to be able to block requesting for specific blocks of time within a day, for example, from 1:00-2:30.

  20. View notifications from transaction details on web

    It would be useful to add the notifications related to a single TN to the TN detail page. Patrons could more easily correlate the notifications with the TN.
