Add NVTGC value to the Main Form of the Electronic Delivery Utility
If multiple EDUs are open on a PC and each is logged into a different NVTGC it becomes confusing later to remember which is which because nothing on the Form shows a NVTGC/Site value. Emory uses up to 4 on one PC so it is hard to know which nvtgc to use on the client logon if you have to investigate why a request/file fails to send

Electronic Delivery Utility change to get requests to Process from DB rather than Folder
The EDU currently populates the list of request to process from the folder specified in ElectronicDeliveryUtilityImagesPath which for customers sharing a scanned files folder across NVTGCs can lead to files pulled in to the wrong EDU and the process fails because that NVTGC might not have access to the address or transaction record. Querying the In Stacks Searching or In DD Stacks Searching status and using that list to determine which files to pull from the folder will allow one ElectronicDeliveryUtilityImagesPath folder to be used across multiple EDUs running for one Shared Server group.

Borrowing Received screen -- either make edits save or make clear fields that can't be edited
When receiving incoming Borrowing items through the Borrowing Received screen, it looks as though the user can edit fields such as the title, but this will not save on check in —only by opening the transaction can a title be edited. We usually note when something is a microform in the title so it's very clear to the patron. When on the Borrowing Receives page, it DOES save edits to Special Instructions, number of pieces, and checkboxes like we use for library use only.
Additionally, it will not save if the user clears info that was previously in the Special…

Ability to remove print templates that are no longer used from user print configurations window (without editing the user.config file)
Right now, every print template a user has ever used will show in the user PrintConfigurations window. When templates are updated (especially just the same file from .doc to .docx) this can get lengthy and confusing. Right now, the only way to get these removed is to edit the user.config file -- but this isn't recommended, since it's easy to corrupt that file and cause major issues.
It would be extremely helpful if users could remove no longer used files from print configuration in an easier way.

Update z39.50 search fields and "ILLiad citation" when article/loan info is updated and saved
When citations are fixed or changed on the ILLiad request, the z39.50 search fields and "ILLiad citation" section are not also updated, but remain the same as when the request was opened. It would be helpful if those fields were also updated when citation changes are saved, so information does not also need to be manually added to search fields, and so the proper citation can be referenced from the z39.50 page.

Extend length of firstname field
Extend the max field length for the Users table firstname field beyond 40 Characters. We serve many patrons who have first names that go beyond this limit and their names end up getting truncated, which is not ideal.

Allow customization of shortcut actions
Staff will perform the actions that produce "shortcut" actions in ILLiad accidentally. These should be able to be customized or turned off to prevent accidental prompting of processing steps. (https://support.atlas-sys.com/hc/en-us/articles/360011911733-Tips-and-Shortcuts-for-ILLiad

Track flag history along with status history of each request
It would be really useful at our library to be able to track flag history in the Staff Client along with status/queue history of each request. We would love to see what flags have historically been added to a request, and when and by whom they were added and removed.
There are several flags in our system that stay on requests indefinitely because that's the only way we can identify and run reports on those requests specifically. There are also many times it would be useful to see who applied a flag to a given request so that follow-up clarifying…

ILLiad / Aeon integration - support for mapping ILLiad fields to Aeon custom fields
It would be great to be able to map ILLiad fields to Aeon custom fields for the ILLiad/Aeon integration.

Single Accessible Coversheet
Interlibary loan articles often fail accessibility checkers when they are uploaded to a learning management system with the coversheet. Articles posted without a coversheet also fail to meet accessibility standards. If ILLiad created a standard coversheet, that meets accessibility standards, all libraries could use this document and help their faculty improve accessibility of shared materials.

Do not bring in Worldcat Identities URLs into ILL forms.
These URLs are coming into the author field in our ILL loan requests. We have to delete them manually so that they don't mess up our printed labels. Can we stop these from automatically being imported into ILLiad?

WMS and ILLiad integration for patron account
Could you integrate WMS and ILLiad so patrons can see all of their checkouts in one place?
We are now checking out ILL items as temp items in WMS so patrons don't have to log into two separate systems. Unfortunately, that means extra work for ILL staff to keep info updated in both systems. It would be great if ILLiad and WMS could talk to each other.

Create/enable a status for a category of users or a specific user be set so that they can only request copies and not loans/returnable. (This could be of use for people who are not local.)

Make time units in turnaround time report uniform
The detailed lending turnaround time report returns time periods that are in minutes, hours, and days, making any kind of comparison impossible. All times should be reported in hours; institutions can then perform calculations as needed.

Web Circulation for Lending
ILLiad Web Circulation is currently limited to updating Borrowing request. Please add Lending functionality so that staff who don't have the ILLiad client can update Lending requests, e.g., as "Mark found" or "cancel".

renewal
Add the ability to specify length of renewal to the groups management tab. Since we can set loan periods based upon group, renewal length should also be able to be specified for each group.

Allow multiple addons to register for the same processing step (system event)
Currently only one addon is able to register for a given processing step (i.e., system event: https://atlas-sys.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ILLiadAddons/pages/3149423/ILLiad+Addon+System+Events ), thus only one can be active at a time and still work successfully. It would be helpful if multiple addons could register in succession for a single system event. To give one example (but there would be many more cases with diverse addons), a library uses the ILLiad Alma NCIP addon when processing received & returned loans in Borrowing, and also wants to use the Flag Popper addon to flag certain requests for staff inspection at point of return (currently only one…

Add confirmation message before printing slips
When clicking Print Stacks Search Items, there should be an "are you sure" message BEFORE requests route to In Stacks Searching so there's a chance to undo or reconsider before requests move.

Include ISIL as supported symbol type in Odyssey protocol.
Odyssey currently supports the symbol types of OCLC, DOC (Docline), ISO and RAPID. At ReShare, we would love it if the schema were updated to include ISIL symbols so that we could transfer files for non-returnables. Please support ISIL (ISO15511:2009) as a library symbol taxonomy for Odyssey. (https://webstore.ansi.org/standards/iso/iso155112009)
