Modify Long Text custom fields to truly be Long Text The new custom fields are fantastic, with one exception: the Long Text field is still limited to 255 characters.
Ideally, this limit would be removed and the Long Text field would be NVARCHAR(MAX).
At the risk of saying "well, that's easy," having a "LongText NVARCHAR(MAX)" field definition in the CustomFieldValues table seems reasonable enough.

Support alternate date formats in web date pickers In both the Scheduled Date calendar and Appointment calendars, Aeon should support alternate (non-US) date formats, such as DD/MM/YYYY.

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.

Different parameters for cleared and uncleared users We would like the ability to establish different parameters for appointment-making/request-adding for cleared (established) and uncleared (new) users to facilitate paging from the Reading Room.

Add -force option to Aeon Server update scripts Add -force option to Aeon Server update scripts to make the update scripts download and install the latest, no matter what.
A couple of times I've run into instances where the update scripts failed for some reason, but then subsequent runs state no updates are available, yet some of the files have not been updated.

Add "open" exception type to appointment scheduling tab Allow staff to set an "open" exception for cases where the reading room is open. For example: if the reading room is open one Saturday per month, it would be preferable to set the open hours for Saturday and check a box to indicate the library is closed. But then add an "open" exception to indicate which Saturday is open rather than adding exceptions for all closed days.

Form-specific Status text Not all requests are the same, so not all web forms are the same semantically, so the status text on a form may benefit from being customized to the form semantics or origin. Right now, SLShowRequest and SLEditRequest in Customization Manager handle status lines for all requests. If we want to have different text for, say, the Photoduplication form from the Monograph form, we have to have empty values for SLShowRequest and SLEditRequest, and to add text to each form's HTML file. This also means adding text to each form's HTML file that should in fact get the same text.…

ArchivesSpace - Aeon Client Addon - allow for custom default repository selection The University of Pittsburgh has a number of repositories. The repositories are sorted in identifier/creation order, and the first repository is considered the default repository when a staff person logs into ASpace in any browser. In Pittsburgh's case, the default repository has to constantly be changed to another repository that is more frequently used. There is an open ticket for ArchivesSpace about this: https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/ANW-630?jql=text%20~%20%22default%20repository%22. Would it be possible to direct the addon to select a repository by default, saving staff from having to perform the manual steps?

Aeon scheduling: block off Saturday/Sunday/weekend We would like appt scheduling options to automatically block out the weekend so that it doesn't count in 1) the "lead time" or 2) for available appt requests.

Categories in the Process Ribbon menu Is it possible to add the ability to categorize items in the Process Ribbon menu on the top of the dashboard screen in the client? Much like one can define categories of queues/statuses in the Routing menu, can we also create sub-menus in the Process Ribbon? We have quite a number of statuses we have added to the Process Ribbon menu, and it would be helpful to categorize them for our different locations.

More flexibility for multi-site instances that use appointments and need to transfer requests to another site The University of Pittsburgh needs to be able to temporarily transfer requests to another site in order to have that site pull material. That site will pull the material, and then route the request back to the original site. However, since both sites have their own reading rooms, the scheduled appointment in one reading room prevents the transfer of the request to another sites. Both of these sites can view each other's requests.
If we configure each site to have both reading rooms, the transfer works. However, on the web side, with this configuration, patrons can then choose one location,…

Allow a patron to copy the primary mailing address information to the secondary address fields The University of Pittsburgh uses both the main address and secondary address blocks on the registration pages for their patrons. For non-affiliates, they want to capture permanent and local/work addresses; for affiliates, they want to capture permanent and local/campus addresses. They would like for some kind of button that allows the patron to automatically populate the secondary address fields if the address was the same for both address blocks - similar to shipping and billing addresses on e-commerce sites.

Make the "Create Requests" button accessible from the Requests/Process tab. Currently, when you click on a user's Request tab, that option is not available and you have to click out to the Home tab.
