1. Ensure invoice lines always appear in the right order on the Purchase Order Lines page of the new UI

   There is a tendency of the new Alma UI to scramble the order in which invoice lines appear on the Purchase Order Lines page. We would like to request a permanent rectification of this.

   Scenario:

   1) Staff member searches for an PO Line.

   2) They click the Edit option for the search result, and from the Purchase Order Lines page which comes up they select the Invoice Lines tab.

   3) The invoice lines are correctly ordered with the latest invoice at the top and the previous payments follow going back in time.

   4) They then click into a different tab with content on the Purchase Order Lines page, e.g. History.

   5) Having finished looking or working in that tab, they click back into the Invoice Lines tab, only to find that the order of the lines has been mixed up, with the newest line never higher than second place in the list and sometimes lower down than that.

   It's time-consuming for staff to have to seek out the correct line from long lists of invoices, and the workflow of having to cycle between Purchase Order Line tabs of a single order in one sitting is a much-used one.

   The correct order of the invoice lines is reinstated if the member of staff hits the Back button and then Edit from the persistent search result once again, or else if they click on the Invoice Date header twice. However, we would prefer it if staff weren’t obliged to have to do that constantly.

   This issue was originally raised in published support case #00494055 (q.v.), but has been changed to Pending Work Plan status for up to two years from 26/12/2017 onwards.

2. Work with more vendors who provide SUSHI to make them Alma-certified

   Factiva and PLoS both provide SUSHI credentials, but they do not work with Alma, and are not currently an Alma-Certified SUSHI vendor. Please work with them so that we can draw our Factiva and PLoS usage via SUSHI.
   Thanks,
   Amy

3. Enable customization of Receive New Material columns

   We would like to have the ability to completely customize the data elements in the Receive New Material columns. Vendor name, for instance, which is not a current column option, would be helpful. Our library, like many others, combines Receiving and Copy cataloging functions, so Brief Level would be an extremely useful column to see at point of receipt, in order to enable easy identification of bibliographic record quality.

4. Include the same details in an Acquisitions Placed HOLD as for a Patron Request placed through the repository search

   Currently, we cannot use the checkbox to hold an item for an interested user in the PO Line to place an item on hold. This is because the information provided when this option is chosen is so much more minimal than what is seen if we put a request on the book from the repository search, that our Fulfillment department often does not expect the hold -- it does not show up when the scan the item in, and it does not indicate who it is for. As a result, items where we use the hold item checkbox from the PO Line are often erroneously shelved in the stacks instead of remaining at the circulation desk for pickup. It would be great if we could use this checkbox, as it would greatly streamline our workflow. However, we cannot do so due to the limited elements of the feature that are currently available.

5. Add percentage to reporting codes

   Now that ExLibris has added the secondary and tertiary reporting codes, it would be really helpful to be able to add a percentage to each of the additional reporting codes so that PO lines and invoices will show the percentage split, just like the fund codes do. This would be especially helpful with ERP so invoices that are split across more than one reporting code/fund would not have to be dealt with manually.

6. More Configuration for Work Order Type Statuses

   There is currently limited functionality for configuring Work Order Type Statuses. It would be helpful to be able to do more than just Add and Remove statuses. Being able to edit/rename, rearrange the order, and set a default would be useful.

7. Automated Invoicing for Amazon

   Amazon is a common supplier of materials for many libraries and the current process of needing to manually enter invoices in Alma is very slow and tedious. I don't believe Amazon supports EDI, but they do provide invoice/order information in CSV format. It would be really great to have the ability to automate or batch load Amazon invoices.

8. Add fund rules fields to Tools>Excel export in Funds and Ledgers search results screen

   Support have confirmed that it's not possible for an Alma user to access reporting on the fund rules fields e.g. over expenditure allowed, over-expenditure limit etc.

   They suggest the quickest way to achieve this would be to add these fields as columns to the Tools>Excel export function in the fund and ledger search results screen.

9. Electronic Collection PO lines should appear in "More info" at bib record level when Collection is linked to bib record

   Electronic Collection PO lines should appear in "More info" at bib record level when Collection is linked to bib record
   Description Hello,

   This is an enhancement request.

   Even when an electronic collection is linked to a bibliographic record in the Additional descriptive information field of the collection record and when an Electronic Collection PO line is linked to the collection, it currently is not possible to get to the PO line when we look up the title as "All titles" and click on the "More info" link. We have to use an Electronic Collection search to get to the title and click on the "More info" link to get to the Electronic Collection PO line.

   Here is a screencast to demonstrate: http://screencast.com/t/e4S1UwEiMu6h

12. Add other participants to trial after initial trial email is sent

    There is only one opportunity to send out a "participate in trial' email. This means that although it is possible to add a participant to the trial, no email is sent out to this person if the initial trial email has been sent.
    
    It would be great to have the option of sending an email to individual or all participants again.

15. Send claims for journal issues for providers without EDI

    We have a lot of journal providers for our legal deposit. As they may be associations or other small institution, they don't work with EDI.
    Quite often, we don't receive issues. So we want to send them claims. But these are not sent automatically in Alma for subscriptions.
    We suggest Alma sends claims for issues that haven't been received to the e-mail address defined for the provider (vendor), taking into account the claiming grace period.

16. When you change vendors in the PO, there should be a warning note if a PO# is not entered

    When you change the vendor for a PO, there needs to be a warning note if you do not fill in the PO#. If you are doing a large number of these (say you changed vendors for a e-journal package) it's very easy to miss putting in one po number, thus changing all your open PO's with that vendor to another vendor.

18. Display all orders for physical item searches, even when individual item records are not linked to a POL

    When doing various collection development tasks, acquisitions and resource managers may want to know whether there is order information for a title at the same time they're viewing physical item details via the More Info link in Alma. Currently, Alma does not display orders for physical item searches when a POL is not linked to an item record. This is a problem for closed orders that migrated from another ILS because the POL does not get linked in the item record during the migration process. We see accurate information when conducting an All Titles or Physical Titles search, but not when conducting a Physical Items search. Accurate order information should be displayed regardless of what type of search is conducted and regardless of whether the item record is linked to the POL.

19. Allow for Gift Acknowledgement Letters

    The Legal Deposit method of acquisition allows for letters of acknowledgment to be sent to the vendor by automatic email from Alma after the item is received on Alma.

    This functionality is lacking for the 'Gift' method of acquisition. As standard we like to send an acknowledgement to all of our donors and it would be ideal if Alma could automate this process as it does for Legal Deposit acknowledgements. The functionality to send an 'order' letter for a gift is there - but not for acknowledgement of receipt, which is actually the wrong way around for our requirements.

20. 采购查重

    由于ISBN查重仍有问题，会产生大量复本图书，所以ISBN查重不能满足实际的需求。还有系统的模糊查重配置是去精确比对100和245字段，在系统中放在100字段的只能是单个的创作者creator，而多个中的其他创作者、还有所有贡献者都会放在7XX中，在我们导入订单时，不论是何种责任方式，我们都放在了100字段，所以，如果系统是直接将我们导入的100字段和系统的100字段比对，这是不科学的。正确的比对方式应该是将我们的100字段和系统的1XX和7XX一起比对才是。再者245字段，由于某些老师给的题名不完整或者不规范，所以，在245的比对时，也不应该是一对一精确匹配，而是应该将导入的245去符号，和系统中已有的245去符号进行比对，只要系统中245完全等于或者全包含我们导入的245，就当做重复给予显示，才完美。比如导入的245是xxxx：xx，系统的是245xxxx:xx 再比如我们的245是xxxx：xx，系统的是245xxxx:xxsssss；这两种情况的重复提示，才是需要的。并且90多条数据，人工查了77条重复，说明了永久检索框中实现了上述我说的245题名查重，但是订单创建那边模糊查重却没能做到。希望订单创建查重那里进行优化，从而完善查重需求。
