  1. Change currency in the order

    In the order the currency can not changed when the order is saved already. See attachment too, please.

    We need a possibility to change the currency after sending the order. Here are the reasons:

    a) During the order creation it was made a mistake.
    b) For subscriptions and standing orders the currency changes during the lifecycle. First we used British pound and than we use Euro, for example. The vendor changes the currency and we also have to be able to change that.

    AdminTamar Fuches (Senior product owner, Ex Libris) responded

    Dear community,

    Thanks for this idea.

    I would like to make sure that we fully understand the use case:

    1 The need is to allow users to change the currency for PO lines which were packaged and sent.

    Can you please specify the statuses in which this is needed?

    2 Upon such change, funding should be handled: disencumbrance for the original encumbered amount, and a new encumbrance on the fund with the new amount and currency. Is this correct?

    3 The POL should be removed from the original PO, and re-packed. Is this correct?

    4 Should the order be sent to the vendor again?

    Thanks,

    Tamar Fuches

  2. Automatic renewal notifications of subscriptions

    Our library manages about 3'500 current subscriptions to periodicals. We fixed the automatic annual renewals of our subscriptions on a same date, precisely on the 31 August. As most of our subscriptions have been assigned to a few suppliers, our wish is that all renewal notifications intended for a same supplier are included in a single e-mail, instead of being sent individually in separate e-mails. We wish to avoid that each supplier receives as many e-mails as there are automatic notifications on the same date. They would only receive one e-mail with all the renewal notifications.

  3. Associating with more than one POL

    Currently you can only associate a POL with one other POL. I would like the ability to associate a single POL with multiple POLs. This is helpful in associating different titles that are paid in a single package, or arrive together.

  4. More POL parameters/Mappaing fields to be needed in Import Profile (EOD)

    We suggest that more parameters or mapping fields can be provided in creating the EOD profile. For example, we add on the profile, we want to set POL Status as EOD General parameter - Auto Packing, Manual Manual Packaging and In review.
