Option to print articles and loans separately in Doc Del
In Doc Del, have a dropdown choice of printing either articles or loans instead of all. We process these on different floors and it's really handy in Lending.

Printing Multiple Requests from a Queue--Simplify Process
Ability to select and print multiple requests from a queue without having to navigate through the merge template process. While it is possible to use the Print Selected Requests option from the Process ribbon, the process requires manually opening a template and completing a merge process.
Ideally, the process would work like other batch printing processes where users are prompted to view/edit a word merge template.

Ability to display borrower group on Lending requests
The borrowing library's shipping options and address # are displayed; given this, it seems like we should be able to display their Groups as well.
This would make it easier to check for consortial memberships when verifying max cost or shipping methods.

expanded off-times (lower case) flexibility.
Copy RAPID's off-times where we can set off times by time as well as by date. We also had a need for a more immediate closure before the 24 hour limit where we had to close for a hurricane. It would have been nice to set the non-lender status closer to the event instead of putting it a day later.

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.

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.

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.

Prevent borrowing renewal requests when the lending library will not accept them
As a lender, FSU does not accept renewals and this is indicated in our notes, in the Client when we mark a request as Shipped and in the Policies Directory. In WSILL, the Renew option disappears when a borrower has exhausted renewal requests. There is no equivalent in ILLiad and borrowers can continue to send renewal requests regardless of settings and indicated preferences. Borrowers should not be able to request renewals when lenders have indicated they will not be accepted. (via KAK)

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?

Restrict access to Policies Directory in Staff Manager
We would like to restrict access to the Policies Directory in the ILLIad client by adding permission levels to staff users. Currently this link is available to any staff including student workers who are using the ILLiad client to process requests. We have recently had an issue with a student worker changing our Policies Directory without our knowledge.
The change would inactivate or hide the link to the Policies Directory if the user's permissions did allow for that access.

Show WorldShare's "Lost" button in received borrowing loan requests
WorldShare has a "Lost" button that appears on all all Received loans (including overdue items and those in any renewal status, even renewal denied). When you click the "Lost" button, the item moves to "RECEIVED_MISSING" in OCLC, which makes it much easier for the lending library to close the transaction once they receive the replacement payment for a lost item.
It would be helpful to have the ability to choose "Lost" on the OCLC record directly within ILLiad, in the OCLC ribbon alongside Complete/Receive/Not Received/Return/etc.

Support multiple files for Illiad transactions
We have some files that get quite large when delivering PDFs. We would like to parse these out - call them chapters or parts. unfortunately, Illiad has the restriction of a single file per TN. We would like the option of being able to upload multiple files per TN, so that when batch loading, all files with the same TN would be attached to the transaction (think TN018765a,TN018765b,TN018765c all being attached to transaction TN018765)

Check OCLC Status before sending Overdues-do not send for "Returned" OCLC status items
Remove step of manually checking for OCLC "Returned" status before generating overdues. it would be helpful if the automatic process included checking the OCLC status before sending it off and not sending for items in Returned status.

Add an export option to the Submit Copyright Orders Screen
Most other ILLiad screens allow exporting data to Excel. Adding the option to the Submit Copyright Orders screen so we could more easily investigate titles we're borrowing high amounts of, along with the actual current publisher fees in CCC prior to submitting the order would be very helpful

strip extra characters out of PMID field when receiving from Pubmed via OpenURL
The OpenURL generated by Pubmed has the PMID field sent as:
&rft_id=info%3Apmid%2F26824237
which puts extra info in front of the PMID value. This means staff have to touch each request and clean it up before searching it. It would be great if the OpenURLMapping table could have an option to strip characters from a value or some other means to clean up that field when it carries over.5 votes -
ILLiad Lending scanning display email of borrower
In the lending scanning window, display the email address of the borrower. When sending via Article Exchange it isn't always known if the email address is filled out in the address book. If the email address is not in the address book, the article does not get delivered.
