Develop pathway for ILLiad stub accounts to complete registration when RemoteAuth (particularly EZproxy) is in use.
Desired behavior: Patrons authenticated via RemoteAuth (EZproxy) who begin but do not complete registration can subsequently return to registration with their data populated from the latest info in the UserValidation table.
We use RemoteAuth for patrons to authenticate via EZproxy, and change implemented in order to preserve user PINs during the ILLiad 9.0 upgrade. We also do a daily upload to the UserValidation table that includes just those patrons who are eligible for ILL service. This table populates the NewAuthRegistration form so they can successfully submit registration and access ILLiad.
When users authenticate via RemoteAuth before they have been added…

Email Notification to a user/lender/borrower that is NOT tied to a specific request, but from the user record, or lender address record.
It would be great to be able to send an e-mail notification (from a template) to an individual user, lender, or borrower from the user record, or address record for a library. One instance I would use this for would be to provide individualized tracking information that may apply to a large number of requests at one time. Or to alert a patron of an entire list of things they have out--or to let a group of patrons know that we are temporarily suspending a particular aspect of service. Although many of these things could be handled through a regular…

Change to the redirect of a user when they Register in the pages of another nvtgc
If a user registers to ILLiad (specifically via the NewAuthRegistration.html) in the wrong nvtgc site's pages, during the dll redirect to the right nvtgc pages the UserNotifications entries are not added for the user. The dll log does show that entries are being added but it appears this is written to the log even when the entries have been skipped over.

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)

Add hidden fields to request forms for more flexibility
Currently the Status field is the only option for creating unique request forms. It would be nice to be able to have more information to customize request forms. Some of the user information, such as Status or User Info # would be valuable to work with on request forms. If could be queried to hide/add fields based on unique statuses. The data could be in a query parameter or hidden input field on the page.

Printing a individual invoice
I would like the ability to print an invoice right away for the libraries that email their request and ask that we attach an invoice to the request. Most of the time these are specialty or international libraries that rarely or don't use OCLC or Docline. This would also be good for individual users ( former Lomsone Doc Users) who are not part of our university or our medical association.

More ItemInfo and UserInfo fields
Consider increasing the number of ItemInfo and UserInfo fields to more than 5 each. We have already used up all of the ItemInfo fields and have had to re-purpose existing fields to collect the additional information we need in our borrowing requests.

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.

ability to update OCLC request to complete
Attempting to Check In from Lending Library will cause a Connection Manager error if an item is returned to the lender but the borrowing library has not performed the OCLC Received or Returned update.While the Connection Manager error can be cleared, the system flag will remain unless the borrowing library updates the request.
It would be helpful to have a way to override these flags, particularly if the item is considerably overdue.

Bulk Renew in Borrowing
With libraries closed indefinitley all over the world, we have to push due dates out, possibly multiple times. This is easy enough to do in an ILS, but ILLiad does not allow me, as the Borrowing Coordinator, to push out a renewal request for one new due date for all items currently due before that date. That would save me hours, possibly days of work!

End of the line Deflection
When a library uses the following deflection:
Requests: Loan
Deflection Type: Enable Real Time Deflection - except when I am last in the lender stringOCLC should bump past them in the string, but AUTOMATICALLY add them back to the end of the string of potential lenders.

Allow the CreationDate field to be added to loan and article pull slip templates
It isn't currently possible to add the CreationDate field to the loan and article pull slip templates because that field is not included in the xlsx datasource columns. Can this be fixed? Having the CreationDate field on pullslips would make it easier to know which printed requests are close to expiring and need immediate attention.

Book Chapters - Should use Article holdings path instead of Loan holdings path
Book chapter requests use the incorrect custom holdings path; they pull from OCLCILLLoanHoldingsPath instead of OCLCILLArticleHoldingsPath, but the latter is the correct path.

Update the Primo New UI addon
The Primo New UI addon can cause the ILLiad client to crash. The addon appears to be running endless in the background, building up processes that eventually cause a memory error forcing the ILLiad client to crash.
One way to cut down on these crashes is to turn the auto-search function off for the addon, and to reboot the client once or twice a day.
Note: because this is a custom addon not developed by Atlas Systems, we don't officially support it. We are looking into ways for making this more clear in the documentation, but if there is enough…

Database Manager - Extend the transaction purge options
The transaction purge tab in Database Manager only has transaction date as a criteria. The Patrons tab allows for a very fine grain approach for deciding which users to purge. It would be nice to have a similar or expanded group of options for transaction purging.
For example, it would be nice to be able to delete test users that have test transactions, which we cannot currently do effectively now.

Import complete information (esp. Publisher) from OCLC into ILLiad when sending request
Currently ILLiad imports the title field from sent OCLC requests. It would be great if it imported more info such as the journal publisher. We are constantly asked for details of how many Publisher X or Publisher Y journal articles were requested through borrowing. We can't provide the info because the patron doesn't supply it and ILLiad doesn't import it (and manually doing it for our volume of requests is too time consuming).

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
