Allow WebCirc customization in Customization Manager Since WebCirc changes are not supported on Atlas hosted servers, it would be nice to add some customization options for WebCirc and WebReports into the Customization Manager.
As an example, changing the status message that pops up when checking out a transaction for a blocked user.

Clear OCLC search filters when a request is closed When searching for harder to find items in OCLC through ILLiad, we often use the custom search or set filters in the Limits box. The search terms and filters stick from request to request. The worst problem is that if I filter by year, this doesn't appear obviously in the limits, but when I search the next request by ISSN/ISBN nothing comes up. I have to remember to open Limits and clear the year from the filter.
It would be so helpful if these fields would just reset with every request. There isn't any case where I want the same…

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.

SAML multiple attributes (allow for multiple and to list those which are allowed) We have come to understand that ILLiad's SAML module does not support SAML2 attributes sent by the Identity Provider with multiple values. These would take the basic form in the SAML assertion XML like:
<saml:Attribute Name="multiAttributeName">
<saml:AttributeValue>Value 1/saml:AttributeValue
<saml:AttributeValue>Value 2/saml:AttributeValue
<saml:AttributeValue>Value 3/saml:AttributeValue
/saml:AttributeIt is described on pg 31 of the spec https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/56776/sstc-saml-core-errata-2.0-wd-07.pdf#page=31
As this is a common method of delivering data structures inside of SAML attributes especially when specifying items like user affiliations or group memberships, we request that support be added in the future to read and operate on multi-value/list attributes within the RemoteAuthValidation table.

ReShare Addon create a more robust breadcrumb trail When the ILLiad ReShare addon creates a request in ReShare, there isn't much in the way of tracking after the request is submitted. We suggest adding notes to the ILLiad TN anytime the addon takes action on the request so there is a static history of what actions the addon has taken. That way if the request enters a different fulfillment method, such as OCLC, then there is preservation of the past ReShare request number and any other actions that the addon has taken. Otherwise, this information is lost (the ReShare Request ID is overwritten in the ILL number field).

Fulfillment Data should be included in Custom Search results Custom searching for transactions doesn't return information from the FulfillmentData table. We need to be able to calculate money spent through DSP addons like Reprints and Get It Now and there isn't any other way to gather that information out of ILLiad, other than using an ODBC link and an external program.

Add User Expiration Date as an option for Customized Layout in 1-borrowing form, and 2-Check In From Lending Library batch screen. We'd like to be able to see the User Expiration Date in the client on the borrowing request form and the borrowing batch process "Check In From Lending Library." This would help us when assigning due dates and renewals (in case we need to truncate what the lending library offered), and may also determine where we send initial requests as well. At the moment, User Expiration Date is not in the list of fields to choose from when customizing layouts.

Integrate API keys for Docline NLM rate limits Docline searches to 3 per second without an API key. It is rare, but under the right circumstances, the client can exceed this, in which case using the API would be beneficial.

Highlight active requests that you've worked on but need to follow up on An option to highlight requests in a queue so if you've opened it, you know you've already worked on it or need to follow up on it later. Ability to assign different colors based on your labeling preferences.

Exporting Customization Manager Tables Would like the ability to export tables from the customization manager into an excel xls, xlsx, or csv file so that changes can be made.
And then ideally allow the changed file to be uploaded into the customization manager to change the table too.
Tables like the Routing table would really be easier to manage and edit like this.

I would liek ot be able to truncate text in field for printing. Sometimes the title is long and pushes my book strap on to a second page. I want to truncate the length of the title in some of my print templates so labels print consistently. I would also like to be able to change the color of the font based on the data in a merge field to call attention to a users NVTGC for example.

Allow RapidR borrowing renewals to be sent in batch by the Send OCLC Renewal Requests button Currently, the Send OCLC Renewal Requests button will send out renewals for all requests in the status of "Renewed by Customer to MM/DD/YYYY", but it only works on requests with a SystemID of OCLC. Now that RapidR allows renewals within ILLiad, it would be helpful to be able to batch send requests to Rapid using the same button, so that renewals can be sent out regardless of the System ID.
The query that populates the ESPUpdate table is currently:
"SELECT t.TransactionNumber, t.ILLNumber, t.SystemID FROM Transactions t JOIN Users u ON (t.Username = u.Username) " +
"WHERE ((t.TransactionStatus LIKE N'Renewed by…17 votes -
Replace Lending Web Shipped Items Due Date field in new pages The Lending Web pages don't contain due date information in the tables, despite the documentation saying it should be a default table field and it historically being displayed in the pages.

Increased Granularity in Web Circ Permissions by User I would like to be able to restrict available actions in Web Circ by user. I would like to restrict our circ desk account from being able to do anything other than check out items. I think essentially I'd like the customization keys to be available on a by-user basis.

Fix the "Illiad Authentication" Checkbox so it Does not Automatically Enable itself when Saving a New User Record Leaving the ILLiad Authentication checkbox unchecked/unchanged when creating a new user will default the user to ILLiad Authentication type.
Leaving the "ILLiad Authentication" checkbox unchecked/unchanged while creating a user in the Client still defaults to ILLiad Authentication when the user is created, even though the option is not checked when saving. This bug has been around for awhile with no fix in sight. Can this please be addressed in a future Illiad release? No one can remember to go back and uncheck that box constantly.This is currently logged as Bug# 12841

Better tracking of OA/DSP/non-standard article delivery in Borrowing Web Reports Turnaround time Borrowing Web Reports don't have the ability to capture requests filled through OA Addon/DSP. It's important for not just these to be able to be captured and included in statistics, but also for us to separate these and be able to identify these as opposed to other material that's uploaded and delivered.
