Consistency with overdue notice schedule settings & disabling notices Currently LendingReminderDaysBeforeOverdue and BorrowingingReminderDaysBeforeOverdue adding value of 0 will disable lending reminders. However, in the other keys for scheduling the overdue notices, a 0 value will send the notice on the day the item is overdue.
It would be helpful if these keys worked the same way and all allowed the ability to disable the notice if you want to send less than three notices with the automated service.

Make a library's loan period visible on the borrowing holdings screen When creating a holdings list, currently borrowers can see the institution name, days to respond, and fees for lending institutions. It would be nice to see the library's loan period for items in this area.

NCIP integration for lending and borrowing Integrate the ability to send NCIP messages for both borrowing and lending including support for renewals and recalls into the standard workflow rather than requiring an addon to do so. Settings could be part of the customization manager.

Status-Specific changeuserinformation form Validation on behalf of New Mexico State Library: We would like the ability to have a status-specific ChangeUserInformation form validation. As a referral center for our state, small libraries throughout the state have ILLiad user records to place requests that we process on their behalf. We would like to require different user information on those user records than we require for our other patrons who are individuals working in state government.

Modify most requested journal web reports The current Web Report for Borrowing Most Requested Journals is looking at the ESPNumber to match multiple requests. Whereas, the default copyright query looks at the PhotoJournalTitle field. This causes confusion where there is discrepancy between to the 2 lists. It is also becoming more common to request items from a document provider resulting in a request without an ESPNumber.

In ILLiad 9.1, allow locally controlled automatic logins to the OCLC Service Config from the ILLiad interface. It seems that in ILLiad 9.1, the OCLC Resource Sharing Settings Module (containing access to Custom Holdings Paths and Groups, Direct Request, etc.) will be replaced by a link out to the OCLC Service Configuration to access that content.
That link out will prompt users to log in with their OCLC Service Configuration. Could we allow automatic logins, that are set locally (to some users but not others)?
The automatic logins would save time for those of us who update Custom Holdings fairly frequently.
The ability to locally control which usernames get automatic logins to the OCLC Service Config would…

Improve Database Manager functionality Western Washington has discovered an issue where deleting more than one month's worth of Connector Sessions in the DB Manager results in the program appearing "frozen" after the Delete button is clicked. When the staff go to check on it, they get a Windows "Not Responding" message. It would be helpful to see something indicating that it's working, instead of appearing frozen, especially as the deletion process can take quite a bit of time to complete. Alternatively, adjusting the program so it doesn't produce the Not Responding message would also be acceptable. (transcribed by KAK - ZD ticket in admin…

Ability to make OCLC borrowing requests from a custom queue The functions to create an OCLC borrowing request are not available until the request is opened from the Awaiting Request Processing queue. It would be helpful to be able to create OCLC requests from a custom queue eliminating extra steps for processing items that might routed to a custom queue for review.

Allow Database Manager To Run on a Schedule We would like to be able to run Database Manager tasks on a schedule. For example, we would like to flip expired patrons to blocked on a nightly basis instead of requiring interaction from staff.

Allow staff to customize how ILLiad assigns copyright compliance (CCL/CCG) We would like all of our borrowing requests to indicate CCL.
ILLiad automatically assigns CCG/CCL based on publication date, creating an error when a library also has a copyright entry in their OCLC Constant Data. This error has been discussed here: https://support.atlas-sys.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360012493354-Easy-Fix-Copyright-fields-are-duplicated-in-ILLiad-when-using-a-constant-data-record-containing-copyright-data-resulting-in-an-error-message-
Libraries should be able to customize how CCL/CCG is applied to their requests, regardless of whether the request is filled through RapidILL, OCLC, or other means.

Add a verification when cloning requests After clicking "Clone to Current User" have a pop-up window/box that asks "Are you sure you want to clone this request?" Several times I have accidentally cloned a request when I didn't mean to.

"Import" answered email from Outlook into email history of a request Currently we only see one side of a conversation in the email history of a request. It would be helpful to be able to import a response into ILLiad so we have a complete history in one place (as opposed to cutting-pasting into notes as we do now.)

Allow us to adjust the number of times a journal is requested before it appears on our copyright list. If CONTU is not law, and our institution decides that 10 requests is the definition of replacing a subscription, we should be able to change a setting in ILLiad so that we can easily follow our own guideline, rather than ignoring the list and reconciling all titles at the end of the year.
