ArchivesSpace integration - import classifications Purdue University would like for Classifications to be imported into Aeon via the PUI and client addon integrations with ArchivesSpace. They use Classifications as Collecting Areas in ArchivesSpace, and would like to collect statistics when patrons request materials that are linked to those classifications.

The staff client and opened records should open in full-screen mode Purdue University would like for the staff client to automatically expand to fill the screen when the client is opened. Likewise, they would like for opened records - user, request, activity - to also automatically expand. It is easier for the staff person to orient themselves to where they need to be in the client, and also not accidentally click on the X that closes the entire client when they are just trying to close one record.

Have Aeon automatically sign out patrons when reading room closes Purdue University would like for Aeon to automatically sign patrons out at when the reading room closes, based on the hours that are set up in appointments. This is in case staff forget to sign a patron out of the reading room, and no one notices until the reading room reopens. Note: There is another UserVoice entry that requests the ability to adjust the sign out time for a patron in the same scenario, which Purdue would also be happy with: https://uservoice.atlas-sys.com/forums/568075-aeon-ideas/suggestions/41771128-add-ability-to-adjust-sign-out-time

Appointments: Allow for recording of researcher's guest(s) Princeton Theological Seminary has researchers, such as faculty members, who schedule appointments in the reading room and bring their research assistant(s) with them. The assistants do not need Aeon accounts, but they would like to record that these guests are using seats in the reading room during the appointment.

Enhance request search fields on web - add CallNumber search and include default note to indicate what fields can be searched. According to the documentation (https://support.atlas-sys.com/hc/en-us/articles/360011920053-Searching-for-Requests-on-the-Web), only TransactionNumber, EADNumber, ItemNumber, ReferenceNumber, ISXN, ItemTitle, ItemSubTitle, and ItemAuthor fields can be searched via the web interface search requests feature.
This should be enhanced to include addition fields, including at least CallNumber.
Additionally, a note should be added to the page indicating what fields can be searched.

Set how long before end of day last appointment can be scheduled BPL's reading room is open from 9:30am to 4:30pm and allows 30 minute appointments. However, to allow time for registration,we would like all appointments to begin before 4pm, so that a researcher cannot make an appointment for 4pm-4:30pm.
It would be helpful if there was another appointment key for end of day padding, i.e., how long before the end of day an appointment can begin, while still allowing appointments to end at our closing time

ArchivesSpace PUI - Aeon Fulfillment Plugin - import component Ref ID value Purdue University would like for the component refId to passed through with other ArchivesSpace data via the Aeon fulfillment plugin for the ASpace PUI. Their digitization lab uses the refid to find existing reproductions in a separate database - the ref ID links between ASpace and that other database.

Aeon is not using the preferred name in email messages Aeon is not using the preferred name in the email messages we are sending. Is there a way to update the template so it uses a preferred name when there is one?

Prevent staff accounts from having leading or trailing spaces We accidentally created a staff account that was 'NNN ', with 2 trailing spaces. It took a little bit of fiddling to figure out why the person couldn't log in. To me, it makes sense to validate against this on staff account creation and prevent it.

Patron web interface - list researcher proxies for patron Purdue University would like for the patron to be able to view a list of other patrons for which they are proxies. This was requested while discussing the 'Available to Proxies' checkbox on the 'Schedule Appointment' form.

Change custom batch process via staff template We have a lot of custom batch processes set up, to the point where the list of options can be unwieldly to look at. We would love to be able to customize which batch processes appear for a specific staff template, so that staff are only seeing the options they need to use.

Export appointments from Aeon client as calendar files The University of Tulsa would like the ability to export appointment information from the Aeon client and add it to their department calendar (they use Google) where they record other non-Aeon appointments. (I can also see this benefiting another library that shares their reading room with university archives, which doesn't use Aeon.) For now, UTulsa will CC the person in charge of managing the department calendar whenever the Aeon appointment confirmation is sent (which includes the appointment details).

Allow for hyperlinks in the unrequestable alert in ArchivesSpace plugin We'd like to be able to point the user to guidance on how to submit requests from ArchivesSpace to Aeon from the finding aid by adding a hyperlink to the unrequestable alert in ArchivesSpace that leads to one of our getting started guides.

Activities - incorporate some course reserve-type functions Purdue University has a number of classes (which will be Aeon activities) where students go to the reading room to look at course materials on their own time. The students will first make an appointment in the Aeon patron web interface. Then when they arrive onsite, the requests will be cloned from the activity and checked out to the student. Purdue would like for there to be more visible connectivity/relationships between the activity record, the appointment, and the cloned requests. This information would be helpful for reporting purposes, and will also show how classes are used in Archives and Special…

Dynamic statuses for remaining days to view uploaded scans Boston Public Library would like for there to be a dynamic status line that lets patrons know how many days they have left to download an electronically delivered scan on the Aeon web interface. There should be a dynamic status for each available download if there are more that one available at the same time.

Ability to remove the fax option from the NotificationMethod field A few libraries have requested this option. They would like to remove the fax option from the standard NotificationMethod drop-down. These options are hardcoded and cannot be controlled in the custom drop-down table in the customization manager. We did create a custom field with the necessary configurations, and updated the relevant registration web pages. One library, New York State Archives, is experiencing bugginess with this custom field because they have an unusual workflow for creating patrons. Purdue University, University of Tulsa, Cal State LA, and University of Washington also asked for the fax option to be removed.

Allow for custom fields to be added to patron appointment request California State University L.A. would like to have a drop-down field on the appointment form for the patron to choose the purpose of their appointment. They don't want the field to be on the request form, because the patron would have to select the purpose for each item request for that appointment if the field was required. And they have many returning researchers, so they don't want the field to be on the user registration, as it is more specific to the appointment/reason for the visit.

Automated routing of requests once Appointment is confirmed In the new Appointments confirmation process, requests still need to be routed to Appointment Confirmed (for example), and since there is no Route menu on the Appointments window (I think that's another enhancement), it's some extra steps for staff.
Would it be possible to have the option so when an appointment is confirmed using the Confirm button on the Appointment window, all associated requests are automatically routed to Appointment Confirmed? (Kind of like how hitting Print Callslip routes requests automatically into Item Being Paged.)
