Update the ILLiad AutoRenewals Server Addon to send Rapid renewal requests as well as OCLC renewal requests Now that Rapid can handle renewals, we're spending a fair bit of staff time having to manually open requests and send the renewals to Rapid (since as another UserVoice idea points out, there's a button to send all OCLC renewals but it doesn't cover Rapid, this is a particularly large amount of manual clicking).
The ILLiad AutoRenewals Server Addon (https://atlas-sys.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ILLiadAddons/pages/304644121/ILLiad+AutoRenewals+Server+Addon) has been doing a great job of sending OCLC renewal requests automatically for us. Could it be updated to include Rapid renewal requests as well?

Allow request sent to repopulate current GUI When working on Awaiting Request Processing the "Request Sent" button closes the current request and requires manual opening of the next requests.
It would be nice for the option to have "Request Sent" just repopulate the current UI elements similar to the already implemented arrows at the top left.
Perhaps with a small visual cue to allow for you to recognize its changed easily.

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.

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…
