  2. Automatic Selection of Query Content Functionality

    Currently, after users input their query in the search box, they need to manually click on the content to select it. However, we aim to automate this step so that once the query is completed, the relevant content is automatically selected. Additionally, we intend to provide users with the option to toggle this feature on or off.

    The purpose of this change is to enhance the system's usability and efficiency, eliminating the need for users to perform additional actions while quickly and seamlessly querying large volumes of ISBNs or barcodes. This adjustment will make our system more user-friendly and increase…

  4. Prevent aggregation of fields in digital uploads

    When using the Digital Uploader tool in Alma to import records with MARC data, the uploader aggregates fields with the same MARC tags into a single resulting field once the upload is complete. For example, if a record has multiple 650 fields in an uploaded Excel field, the imported record in Alma has a single 650 field with all of the values that were (in the sheet) separated into different 650 fields. Per Ex Libris documentation (https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Product_Documentation/010Alma_Online_Help_(English)/040Resource_Management/060Record_Import/075Importing_Records_with_CSV_or_Excel_Files), “Repeating fields with the same subfields and indicators cannot be imported. When the import process encounters multiple columns with the same…

  5. Ability to add Request Note during Scan In to Work Order Deparment

    When performing Scan In on items to a Work Order Department, we have the ability to Set Status To our congigured status options, but no ability to add a Request Note, as we have if we were creating work order requests for some other Department.
    If we want to include a Request Note (to be included on any subsequent transit letters, for example), we then have to go into each entry in Manage In Process Items, locate the request that was created by the Scan In, and input a Request Note.
    It would be great if, while setting the status…

  7. Clicking on the 'tick' alert takes directly to the notification

    Clicking on the 'tick' on the Alert column on a reading list (in the Reading List Task List) would take you directly to the list of citations filtered to 'Any Alerts', or would open the 'Notes' tab if the notification is for a Library Discussion Note at list level.

  8. Bulk update letter labels

    The system should have an ability to bulk update all letter labels in a single place. It is especially important after a premium sandbox refresh that you would want to update Email subject or From address to show that email is coming from Sandbox but not from Production. The current system has ability to export labels per letters but it is too tidious to export labels for over a hundred letters. It can also be used to keep track of changes by exporting labels.

  9. Add Lender/Borrower addresses to Label code table in select Fulfillment and Resource Sharing letters

    Fulfillment letters and Resource Sharing related letters would benefit from having an easy mailing label field, to be toggled on and off in the “Labels” section for letter editing when a Library would like to add a mailing label to a letter.

    With collaboration from our Alliance colleagues, we created a shipping label directly on our Ful Resource Sharing Request letter. When we print our pull slips, a second page is automatically generated with a printed mailing label with the Borrowing Schools address information, along with information to allow our mail room to expense it to the correct fund. By…

  10. Add the Lender's mailing address to the Resource Sharing Receive Slip Letter xml

    Adding this xml to the letter code would allow us to print the Lender mailing address on our Resource Sharing Receive Slip Letter. This would help us be more efficient by printing just this single letter at the time this item is received, as we normally would. Then, when our patron returns the item with the slip, we won't have to physically print out the mailing address, and can use the slip already enclosed in the book.

    For example, this xml info is included in the Ful Resource Sharing Request Slip letter in the following fields: "notificationdata/partnershippinginfo

  11. Troubleshooting/business intelligence: Make authentication method field useful (searchable in Alma, reportable in Analytics, customizable)

    We need business intelligence about the big picture of which authentication method we use for each eresource.

    There is an "Implemented Authorization Method" field in the vendor interface record but this data is only available by drilling down into the vendor record, and to those users with appropriate permissions. It's essentially invisible; there is no way to expose this data: it's not a searchable field in Alma, it's not a queryable field in Analytics, and it's not available through the APIs. The values are also not customizable but do not encompass the real life categories we need.

    why?
    1) troubleshooting:…

  12. Default options for tasks should be configurable by the library

    I have a support case open (Case 06893601) that requests the ability to change the default option for “In-House Use”. This support case and others like it could be addressed by allowing the library to configure whether an action is the default.
    A search of the Idea Exchange for "change default" results in a lengthy list from all areas, the cumulative effect of which clearly illustrates the need for this change.

    A few examples:
    Reading Room Final Check-in
    Warning message to confirm Check-In for Shipped Items
    Release remaining encumbrance
    Metadata Editor Templates to suppress from discovery and Don't publish to…

  13. Add Locked Process status to completed jobs

    Currently EDI jobs complete and then tables lock for updating to complete through out Alma. This leaves other similar jobs stuck in the queue as Pending for several minutes.
    Under this change instead of a completed job that locks tables being moved directly to history it would get an additional status in the Running jobs area. This status would let users know that the job had completed, but that Pending jobs would not be starting.
    We have had ongoing issues where staff confusion resulted from a job completing, but the next job staying in Pending for 2-10 minutes. After much…

  14. Modify column size in search results

    We would like to be able to modify the width of the columns for search results in Alma. The collection status (in the "Item Availability" column) can be difficult to read for some records, which forces us to open the record to read it properly.

  15. Add sync option to Alma sandbox environment

    Could we add a 'Sync' button on each configuration page to apply changes from the sandbox environment to the production environment?

    This would be beneficial for modifications like CSS changes, terms of use, fulfillment rules, mapping, etc., and it would reduce the risk of human error during the transition.

    Also, having a sync option from the production environment into the sandbox environment would be great for troubleshooting possible issues.

    Thanks.

  17. Establishment of stronger passwords for the creation of internal ALMA/Primo users

    As an universities consortium from Galicia, CISUG, we are representing three member universities. Our univesrities have a security problem in the management the keys for internal users in Alma.

    Alma's internal authentication system allows the user can create complex passwords, but this should be a requirement, not the user's responsibility as to whether they are secure or not.

    Our request is that:

    1.  ALMA enforce passwords to be at least 8 characters long, and allow the system administrator to increase that minimum. 
      
    2.  ALMA allows to force mixed case, numbers, and special characters to créate paswords. 
      
    3.  Alma checks that the password is

  18. Change e-mail sender address for Collection Contribution Letter

    We have observed that Alma sends a “Collection Contribution Status Letter” for CZ contributions, which is different from the ones we can configure in our IZ letter administration. The letter that Alma sends comes from the “Alma Community Zone”, which prevents us from modifying any labels, HTML or sender addresses for these letters. This causes an issue for us because the e-mail sender is set to the Ex Libris’ default non-valid e-mail address “your.department@organization.com”. This sender address is flagged and filtered by our campus wide spam detection software.

    We do not require a personalized or customizable sender address,…
