Fix Turnaround reports to include API-created Transactions
Turnaround reports currently do not include any transactions created via the API. This is because the SQL queries that drive the Turnaround reports search the history table for specific status messages, and API-created transactions don't have those messages. Either the SQL queries need to be updated to include the API status messgae, or the API needs to use the same status message as the regular webpages in order for these transactions to appear in Turnaround reports. Right now, Turnaround reports for institutions that use the API to create transactions are totally inaccurate.

Fill in Lending DueDate field when TN is in other transactionstatus other than Awaiting Lending Request Processing
If lending loan requests come in via Rapid and are routed to Awaiting Stacks Searching via a Routing Rule (because they already have the location and callnumber), the lending request never gets the DueDate assigned automatically because that only happens the first time a TN is opened from the Awaiting Lending Request Processing status. Could ILLiad somehow set that DueDate even though the Awaiting Lending Request Processing status is skipped?

Addon update notification
Surface an alert in the ILLiad System Dashboard notifying users that an ILLiad addon in use on the local ILLiad system has been updated in the directory. It can be hard to find out if addon updates are available and it can be tricky to troubleshoot or support if different versions of the addon are installed. Having a notification of an available addon update - that an ILLiad system is using an outdated version of an addon - would save time and troubleshooting as well as help users to benefit sooner from bug/security fixes.

Celebration Addon or Feature
Allow ILLiad staff users to set celebration triggers prompting ILLiad to display animated fireworks or other celebratory image. Set a default trigger of 1,000,000 transactions. Other ideas might be for when queues are cleared or other numbers of transaction totals in each module have been reached. This feature request is in celebration of Auburn University Libraries (AAA) reaching 1 MILLION transactions in ILLiad on 8/17/23.

Lengthen conditional message
The Lending Notes field in OCLC has a character limit of 500 characters, but ILLiad will only put through 255 characters. Would it be possible to increase this?

Automatic pickup reminders
The current addon for this is too specific for one institution's processes. I'd like a simple pickup reminder to be able to be sent from ILLiad without an addon that sends the reminder at a specific number of days after the original notification (regardless of day of week, etc.) and only sends it once and/or on multiples like (value = 3, 3 days after original notification) or (value - 3,10, 3 and 10 days after original notification)

Add a user confirmation check to the WebCirc checkout process
It's easy for a high-volume institution with many student workers at many desks to mistakenly check a book out to a user that is not for the user in front of them. Because the TN# is attached to the user, ILLiad then indicates that the item is checked out to the requesting user when the book may have been given to the wrong user. A simple pop-up during the checkout process confirming the username/ID# of the user the item is being checked out to would help prevent this. (and the ability to undo if necessary)

Improve WebCirc functionality
Allow for WebCirc users (staff) to undo something they did by mistake, for instance, marking an item in transit back to ILL instead of checking it out. And/or add a "are you sure" message when moving a request to in transit that is not already at "checked out to customer"

Allow for more targeted web alerts
Allow for multiple critera for displaying web alerts. We have 23 campuses and I'd like to be able to specify I want (for example) Faculty at One Campus (organization field) to receive an alert but not the Faculty at the other 22 campuses. (and other similar circumstances)

IPv6 Support
As the EPA eyes moving to IPv6, we have concerns about our ability to connect to the OCLC-hosted server, as well as concerns about compatibility with Odyssey, Rapid, etc.

Create a way for ILLiad to export citations associated with their requests directly to RefWorks or another reference manager.
Often users acquire articles first through ILLiad and then decide if they want to use them for their research. The DOI resolver and DOI DSP addon features provide complete citations for our users. It would be helpful if a user could simply export the citation associated with a request directly to a reference manager for their bibliography.

Change SSN field to ID
This field label has caused some concern/confusion in the past, and I doubt anyone still uses it to store SSNs. Currently we have to implement various customizations to hide the real column name wherever it appears in search grids.

Allow applying field/layout/grid customizations to all users in Staff Manager
Please make it simpler to set customizations for all staff, including future ones. Currently, field customizations that are applicable to all users must be applied to new users one-by-one.

NCIP connection between ILLiad and FOLIO to check lending loans in and out
Currently, staff have to manually check out any materials we lend via ILL to our ILL "patron" account, and when returned items need to be checked in both in ILLiad and in FOLIO. Occasionally, a checkin or checkout is missed, which can cause a lot of confusion, lost materials, and/or invoices sent in error.
We would love to automate the check in and checkout process of our own materials. My understanding is that NCIP functionality is already available in FOLIO.

Viewing "Return To" Address in "Check in from Lending Library" when Receiving
When Receiving borrowed items in the "Check in from Lending Library" tab, we should be able to view the constant data "Return To" address so we know which address to select when receiving. We have to click on an address in the list, and then view the constant data in the request in a box on the right hand side. I wish we could have that constant data box to view right on that first Check In page so it is easier to select the correct address to return the item to.

Make Illiad fields searchable regardless of including accent marks/special characters
Allow the ability to do searches in ILLiad & pull up the correct results regardless of whether that field has a special characters or accent marks, etc. For instance, doing a patron last name search for Peña, should pull up with Pena or Peña (currently it has to be an exact match). Same thing with titles & authors, if the title has accent marks or special characters, we cannot pull up the request without also including the special characters/accent marks.

Update Docline scripts to include fill in to Docline's Place Request by Journal UI
Not all requests placed in Docline have a PMID. We must use the Place Request by Journal UI (ISSN, NLM, OCLC). This is different than the Manual function in ILLiad. ILLiad does not have a script to fill the citation information in to this request form thus we must type the citation, requestor, and TN number in to the form manually. Because not everything ordered in Docline has a PMID, this is an essential function needed to improve our workflows. A script is needed to facilitate this function.

Update Lender Billing Fields and Description on Transaction Form
Adjust the availability of lender address fields in the transaction form.
Remove Billing Notes from the Transaction view in the Client. Dev believes this is an artifact from before lending billing was split into 2 parts and we have been unable to populate it with data.
Add LibBillingMethod as an option for addition to the layout. It's available in the LenderAddress record view, but not the transaction form view.
Rename the "Billing Groups" label in the Transaction form's Library tab. These are just groups and should not be described as specifically related to billing.
