Incoming Lending RapidR to reflect default Renewal setting in Customization Manager
Incoming Lending RapidR requests in ILLiad are set to be "No Renewal" by default. We wanted to change it since we now allow renewals, yet our Loan labels print as "No Renewal." A borrowing library pointed out that it is confusing when they process Receives.
I was told by OCLC and Rapid (Exlibris) that RapidR requests do not reflect the "LendingRestrictDefault" keys for Renewals, Photocopying, and Library Use Only in Customization Manager.
I wish Lending RapidR requests could reflect these default values the same as OCLC Loan requests in ILLiad.

Allow copyright payment via CCC for document delivery requests, not just borrowing requests.
Currently document delivery requests aren't hooked up to CCC, so we cannot submit CCC payments for doc del requests via ILLiad, and instead have to manually log into the CCC via a browser and manually input the requests for which we are paying copyright fees. It would be helpful if doc del requests could follow the same workflow as borrowing requests for the CCC integration.

Cancel Rapid pre-shipment requests from within ILLiad Client

Improve functionality of the patron's search results webpage
We would like to see improvements to the ILLiad search results webpage. These improvements would benefit all users, but particularly those users with a large number of requests or lengthy user history. Some suggestions provide by users:
A method to reorder results in ascending and descending order.
A method to limit/filter results by various values, such as Document Type.
A method to limit/filter results by date received and/or date finished.
A method to sort requests alphabetically, such as by title or author.Thanks!

staff manager
We know this exists in the Aeon staff manager, but don’t see a way to do so in ILLIad. This is a functional gap between the two products.
We would like to be able to display the Description field in the columned display. We find it useful when reviewing staff accounts in order to address staffing changes, etc.

Add another note type
We like to hide our staff notes (via customization manager), but it would be nice to have another option for adding notes viewable to the user. Perhaps a Staff-hidden and Staff - so we could hide some notes but make others visible to the user in their account/request.

Exporting Customization Manager Tables
Would like the ability to export tables from the customization manager into an excel xls, xlsx, or csv file so that changes can be made.
And then ideally allow the changed file to be uploaded into the customization manager to change the table too.
Tables like the Routing table would really be easier to manage and edit like this.

Support copying lending request data from Docline web browser
ILLiad used to have a feature that would allow us to copy the Docline new lending requests page from a web browser and import them into ILLiad.
With recent changes to Google account security not working within ILLiad, and Microsoft accounts suddenly not being recognized by Docline, it would be great to be able to copy the page from a web browser. We do not have access to the other login options offered by Docline/NLM
As it stands, our only option is to copy each request line-by-line into a blank ILLiad form.

Allow WebCirc customization in Customization Manager
Since WebCirc changes are not supported on Atlas hosted servers, it would be nice to add some customization options for WebCirc and WebReports into the Customization Manager.
As an example, changing the status message that pops up when checking out a transaction for a blocked user.

Update WorldCat Local Addon to support Chromium Browser
The WorldCat Local addon is not working in ILLiad v9.2 (and probably other versions too). On display under the tab was an error message saying Internet Explorer browser is not supported. The addon needs to be updated to use the Chromium browser since Internet Explorer is deprecated.

SymCirAddon - final step should be removal of bib record created
The final step in this Addon should be the removal of the bib record when held item is returned (Checked-in) or when due date is reached (if the item on Hold is not picked up by the patron).

Allow the use of an FQDN instead of IP Address in Customization Manager for Odyssey and ISO
We have a custom CNAME that we redirect when we replace a server so that we don't have to update links. It would be so much easier if we could use that instead of the IP Address in Customization Manager when configuring Odyssey and ISO so that we don't have to go in and update it when doing a server replacement.

Settings to disable patron info sent via ISO ILL messages
Some libraries have been migrating away from Worldshare and Illiad, but would like to remain connected to their ILLiad partners using ISO ILL via Illiad.
It would be helpful for ILLiad libraries to have settings within the customization manager that help manage borrowing request information sent to these partners--particularly in relation to patron information.

Increase the DOI field character limit to 100 characters
The current 50 character limit for DOIs is not long enough and many get cut off. Please double the character limit to 100. Example: https://doi.org/10.1093/acrefore/9780190236557.013.20

In the ILLiad scanning interface, allow function keys for B&W, grayscale, and RGB settings.
The ILLiad scanning interface already allows use of a Quick Scan Key to initiate a scan, but it's highly cumbersome to still mouse into Settings and switch the dropdown back and forth between B&W, grayscale, and RGB within a request. Could you create a functionality so that staff can program keyboard function keys for each of those color settings and easily switch between them when scanning?

CrossRef
Develop CrossRef as an addon, for when a partial citation is provided without a DOI. An article title search can be conducted in CrossRef; being able to then copy and paste the DOI into the DOI field would helpful. If the article title could somehow be automatically exported to the addon and then the selected CrossRef DOI be imported into the request DOI field, that would be even better!

Allow Layout Modification for Queues/Flags that are Currently Empty
It would be great to have some view in the client of all existing queues and flags, regardless of whether they currently have any requests in them, so that layout and customization of categories can be more thorough.

Change the default "Save as type" for Electronic Delivery from TIFF to PDF
Good to have a copy of files which wasn't sent via Odyssey and are sitting in ED. It will save processing time to save files form Electronic delivery.
