Add User Note to the Email Template tag list I would like to be able to include the "user note" from a borrowing request in the email template, "Question about your Request."
Often a patron will include a note or ask a question in their request. I will use the "Question about your Request" email template when I follow up with them. It would be helpful to have their original note in the email with the request information (title, author, etc.) so that my email to them makes sense.
Currently we can either pull over the "last note" or ALL of the notes in a request. Since we are…

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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 OCLC Local Holdings visible from ILLiad When ordering items via OCLC from the Awaiting Request Processing queue, there are many times (especially with Internet Resource format type) where a list of symbols is showing, but no coverage information at all. It appears you can log into WorldShare's online interface directly and expose the holdings information there. Please make this info. visible in ILLiad so we don't have to leave the program or make faulty lender symbol strings. This is really not efficient and leads to wasted time.

Article Delivery notices: automated reminder notices It would improve service to be able to send automated reminder notices to patrons a week or so before electronic articles reach the 30-day limit and will be purged from the server. We remind them to download articles, but a second notice would be helpful, either to all patrons or maybe to those whose request history does not show "PDF viewed."

Add ability to "pin" or "favorite" staff Note in ILLiad request In cases where staff have the need to re-use the text of a staff note in an ILLiad request, it would be helpful to enable functionality to "pin" or "favorite" a specific note at the top of that day's listing of notes so as to get there in a single click, without having to scroll down to it (or to have to type in the beginning text for that needed note in the Recent Notes field, in order to auto-suggest).

Create a new status for 'PDF Viewed' to work in conjunction with the current TransactionStatus 'Delivered to Web' We are trying to improve communication with patrons regarding electronic delivery of articles, especially when they have many items displayed in the Electronically Received Articles section of the web interface. We want users to know at a glance - which articles are available AND whether they have already been viewed. Including the date to be deleted (e.g. via the 'Expires' tag) would also be helpful, but my immediate request is to make information from the History table ('PDF Viewed') available for display. An example of what I am requesting can be seen in the Checked Out Items section. The display…

Some IdPs require a SAML Logout message to be encoded as a query parameter in order for a request to their logout URL to actually be processed.

Expand the group maintenance functionality to include settings that persist for specific groups such as if renewals are permitted and the le Expand the group maintenance functionality to include settings that persist for specific groups such as if renewals are permitted and the length of renewals for specific groups. One group we are a part of has expanded renewals to 17 weeks - we want this for that group but not for everyone so it would be nice to be able to customize more than just initial loan length based upon the borrowing library's group.

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".

Wrap text for "MatchString" when editing Routing Rules in Customization Manager When editing Routing Rules in Customization manager there's no text wrap for the MatchString field, which makes it hard to edit lengthier/more complex routing rules.
Right now the options are to either scroll through the long string to read it all (or find the place you need to edit), or copy the existing rule, paste it in a text editor, edit, and then paste it back into the Customization Manager.
It would be nice if you could see the rule/MatchString in its entirety and edit it without having to scroll through the string or leaving the application to use a…6 votes
