  1. Don't clone previous scheduled date when cloning activity requests

    When an activity is cloned, the new requests retain the previous scheduled date. Ideally, the new requests should be updated to include a new scheduled date equal to the begin date of the activity.

  2. 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.

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

  6. Scheduled Date field - option to exclude time /change default time

    When selecting a date in the Scheduled Date field in a client request form, the time currently defaults to 12:00am. If you are selecting today's date to enter a new request, you must also change the time to a valid time (else receive the error "The scheduled date field must be set to a date that is in the future.")

    Is it possible to change the default time to a time that a request would more likely be entered in the client (such as 12:00pm), or to change the default to whatever the current time is? If not, it would…

  7. Update javascript functionality in scheduled-date.js - vary based on site or location

    Scheduled-date.js currently only offers one version of the scheduled date calendar for all forms. In many cases, the calendar needs to change based on form, site, or location.

    Site example: several libraries use one instance of Aeon. One reading room is open on Saturday, but the others are not. Should have the option for one site to include Saturday and the other(s) to block requesting on Saturdays.

    Location example: If materials are offsite, they may take longer to retrieve. The scheduled date calendar should be configurable to block days if material if offsite, or allow same day requesting if it…

  8. Populate scheduled date as current date on New Request form in client.

    Currently, when a staff person clicks the New Request for User button in the Aeon Staff Client (from a user record), the scheduled date field is blank. Most sites require this field for a request and find it would be useful to have this field populate when requests are submitted in the client, as well.

  9. Allow appointments to be set for certain days only while leaving other days open for scheduling via scheduled date

    Allow more nuance in appointment configuration to set some days as appointment-only and allow other days to still be open by scheduled date or not require an appointment.

  11. Create functionality to allow patrons to schedule appointments.

    Create functionality to allow patrons to schedule appointments.This would also involve a tracking table where if a patron needs to reschedule the scheduled date, the change would be tracked (for reporting purposes). This might also involved the option to cancel an appointment (without necessarily cancelling requests) or to record when a patron is a walk-in.

  13. 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.

  14. Add a 'Do not ask again' checkbox to the Aeon client update dialog

    Some sites are required to have all client updates performed by IT staff, which must be scheduled in most cases. It would be nice to have an option to disable to update prompt in such cases so that staff are no longer prompted.

  15. Ability to batch edit requests

    We would appreciate being able to batch edit requests. I'm sure there are other batch editing use cases, but one that occurs regularly for us if the need to add the same note to multiple request tickets. It can take quite a bit of time to open/edit multiple tickets. In addition to the ability to batch edit various notes fields, adding/updating the scheduled date field would also be useful.

  17. Schedule Staff Notifications in Aeon Client

    We have recently been thinking about how we can improve our staff communications in the Reading Room. We often have instances where staff need to be alerted to special arrangements, updates or events in the Reading Room in a timely manner.

    It occurred to me that the functionality we are looking for is much like that available in the Aeon system when alert pop-ups occur for new requests for processing and users waiting to be cleared.

    It would be ideal if editable alerts could be scheduled so that when staff log in to the Aeon Client, a pop-up appears with…

  18. Something has changed with the formatting of the date columns when I export to a spreadsheet

    When I export to a spreadsheet, the date columns (transaction date & scheduled date) are not formatted as dates and can't be changed in excel! This always worked perfectly in the past and has just recently changed.

  19. Create a tool/function to allow Aeon staff users to schedule blackout dates for their calendars.

    Create a tool/function to allow Aeon staff users to schedule blackout dates for their calendars. This would allow staff to immediately modify their calendars without requiring support assistance. Especially important if the change is needed with short notice.

  20. Create addon to add an expiration date to a queue and automatically route requests once the date parameter has passed

    In the staff client, requests in the Item on Hold queue have no expiration, but most sites allow holds for 1-2 weeks. Create an addon that allows site to determine queue and number of days for requests to stay in that queue. When the number of days has elapsed, automatically route the request to another queue. EX: if a request is in Item on Hold and is allowed to be on hold for 2 weeks, set expiration for 14 days. When 14 days has passed, automatically route the request to Remove from Hold so staff can reshelve.
