Rollover PO lines that are fully invoiced but not paid
Example:
1. A PO is created and gets fully invoiced in mid-December.
2. In January the fiscal period closure happens. Said PO does not get rolled over (as it's fully invoiced).
3. Sometime later in January the invoice gets paid.The conflict lies in step 3: In Alma the payment is linked to the fund from the old year, while our financial department actually payed it from the fund of the new year.
One possible solution would be in step 2 to also allow rollover of PO lines that are fully invoiced but not paid yet.

Send an email to specific library staff member once an Invoice or Purchase Order is paid for
I would like a function that you could alert a library staff member once an invoice or purchase order is paid for. Sometimes, library staff need to know that an order has been paid for so they can turn on access or know how much is left to spend on a fund. It would be a neat functionality that a letter can be generated from Alma directly to a library staff member once the PO has been paid.

Add "License Type" filter
Under the licenses tab, you're able to view all licenses and amendments that your institution has created. There are currently two filters: "Status" and "Review Status".
It would be helpful if there was an additional filter for "License Type" so that we can filter the list down even further to view only Licenses or Amendments. Some of our licenses come with a TON of amendments, and it's not always ideal to see licenses across multiple pages when I may need to review things regarding our Master Licenses.

Make the "License ID" visible in Alma
My team was trying to investigate ways to make sets for a project regarding our licenses and thought using the License ID would be great, but it's frustrating since we can't even see what the License ID actually is unless you find it in an Analytics report and search for it. In Analytics, you can add a column to show the "License ID", but are unable to view that in Alma. I think if it's viewable in Analytics and it's also a searchable field in Alma, it would make sense to make it an option to view in Alma as…

Need job to force POLs out of Claims status
Over the years, many items of all resource types have fallen into Claims for one reason or another. For the purposes of cleaning up records, Alma should have a job that enables Acquisitions managers to force POLs out of Claim status, even for closed fiscal periods or POLs that are closed. The inability to move an item out of Claim due to it not following the strict receiving process is very inconvenient and makes the Claims function almost useless when its so cluttered.

Add a new privilege to the "Purchasing Operator" role which will prevent users with this role from being able to delete items
This Idea was submitted by ExLibris to check the community support for the following enhancemnet:
Currently, users with "Purchasing Operator" role can delete items, the existing logic behind this is, when a PO line is created (even before it is received), there is a need for the Purchasing Operator to be able to delete the item in case of an error on the order.This Idea suggest to add a new privilege to the Purchasing Operator role which will prevent this user from being able to delete items - the new privilege should be enabled by default to maintain existing…

advanced search invoices
The basic Alma search (the bar at the top) needs to have the option for advanced invoice search. I often want to see which invoice have recently been paid, or which are outstanding, or limit by vendor, etc. I can't be waiting until the Analytics refresh to run a report. Thank you.
