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.

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.

Use Appointment StopTime to use Appointment to inactive instead of StartTime Users have reported that once an appointment starts, it is moved to inactive and hidden in the client. Some reading rooms allow requesting after the Appointment StartTime and therefore the appointment should remain active in the client lists until the StopTime has elapsed.

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

Automated emails depending on queue/request status Would it be possible to set up automated emails depending on a request's status or for all requests in a certain queue? For example, when a request is routed to Appointment Confirmed, an appointment confirmation email is set from the system automatically.

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.

Restore "bright yellow" highlighting for modified but unsaved field values Restore "bright yellow" highlighting for modified but unsaved field values or provide options for skin color palette customization. Previous default highlight color (#FEFD35) was well-liked by staff and none of the current skins offer a comparable attention-grabbing option.

Ping the endpoint service periodically to keep the connection active. We use a homegrown request tool for our EAD guides and we run into an issue where, after a period of inactivity, the connection is lost and so our request tool cannot communicate with Aeon. There does not seem to be a good way to "poke" the server to reestablish the connection. Sometimes the issues lasts a moment, sometimes it persists for 10-15 minutes, meaning our users cannot easily submit requests.

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?

Require appointments based on a specific location For facilities that have off-site storage and require delivery time for requests from that location, make appointments required.
Base this on the location code of the item.
Example: items from the shared ReCAP storage require an appointment during the user request.2 votes -
Aeon calendar - seat locations by status Would it be possible to have Aeon calendar seat locations be available/manageable by user status? So for example, if there were 6 seats available for the public, but two additional seats only available for staff or fellows, could that be configured so those additional seats could be booked only by users with the selected statuses?

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.

Enable Recurring Appointments Some of our researchers are requesting recurring appointments in our Reading Room, but we currently have to create a separate appointment for each individual date. It would be so helpful to be able to schedule those appointments all at once!

Sticky Flag Queues Hello,
We use the "Deliver to Reading Room" flag, and each time the queue is emptied and a user logs back into Aeon, the "Requests" queue section that includes the "Deliver to Reading Room" queue reverts to it's original order in the list of queue categories. It would be great if it could stick to the spot where the Aeon user has moved it.3 votes -
Create option to restrict reproductions in specific cases via the ArchivesSpace plugin Some collections are restricted for digitization but are available for in-person viewing. An option should be added to Aeon to restrict the photoduplication option for specific collections. A customization key would need to be added where a list of unique item URIs could be added when duplication is restricted.

Allow request submittal after appointment StartTime has begun Many reading rooms allow request submittal after the appointment time starts. If the Appointment mindleaddays is set to 0, this should allow the user to submit requests until the appointment StopTime.
Alternately, if lead time is required, add a new key to indicate whether requests can be submitted while the user is signed in for their appointment.

Email notifications for new requests Would it be possible to add notifications to staff via email when new requests come in? The pop-up notification that happens now is not always useful for staff, since often staff are not at their desks - they are in the stacks or elsewhere, and do not see the notification for awhile.

Deliver to Reading Room Flag It would be great if the "Deliver to Reading Room" flag was automatically removed from a request when the request was moved to the "Checked Out" status.
