  1. Add additional clearance options or option to create custom clearance statuses

    Some sites would like to use Disavow ONLY as a security status for users who should not be allowed to use materials. Merging users should include more nuance and set clearance status as Duplicate (or something custom) rather than Disavowed so staff can more easily differentiate between inactive users.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. Allow partial anonymizing of user data and request history.

    This would allow Aeon sites to anonymize part of a users data/request history to protect their privacy while also maintaining statistics long term. For example: an active users request history may extend beyond the 5 year data collection period maintained for audit. The user would retain their access to Aeon, but all requests prior to the 5 year collection period could be anonymized. Allowing the site to maintain their statistics and ensure user privacy.

  6. 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.

  7. 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).

  8. 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.

  9. Add ability to adjust sign out time

    Allow staff users to adjust sign out time in the Aeon client. This will allow for accurate statistics and tracking.

  10. 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.

  11. 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.

  12. 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.

  14. Allow Aeon photoduplication process to estimate request completion time

    Some Aeon sites charge for reproduction based on staff time and need to include time in an estimate. Alternately, some materials take longer to reproduce than others (ex: oversized or high resolution may take longer) and sites may wish to notify patrons about which requests will take longer or how long certain requests will take.

  16. Ability to update physical and photoduplication automatically together

    Georgia Archives uses a number of custom workflows that are specific to working with government records. They have a few photoduplication workflows where they would like to be able to update the photoduplication status and have that action automatically update the physical status. One example is when they route transactions to "Awaiting Order Payment," they would like for the physical status to update to "In Photoduplication." Currently, the transaction routes to "Awaiting Order Payment" via a routing rule. Then staff have to navigate to the Details tab to click on the In Photoduplication button.

  17. Increase size of the icons that appear in the Aeon staff client

    Georgia Archives has asked that the icons (e.g. refresh, "heart" button, tabs navigation button) in the Aeon staff client be larger so that it is easier for staff to see them and use them.

  19. Add key in customization manager to allow automatic user clearance

    This should be a yes/no value since many sites have a security process and want to clear users on arrival. But if a site does not want to clear users, this key would automatically set new users (specifically those with SSO credentials affiliated with the institution) to Cleared on registration.

  20. ArchivesSpace - Aeon Fulfillment Plugin - Import data from Rights Statement sub-record

    I am submitting this on behalf of an Aeon library, and I also think the enhancement would be useful to other libraries. The library would like for the contents of the Rights Statement sub-record in ArchivesSpace to import into Aeon. This is not possible right now, as the Rights Statement does not publish to the PUI. However, it has been a frequent request for the ASpace development team, so if they do make the Rights Statement sub-record available on the PUI, some Aeon users would want that data to import into Aeon.
