  1. Allow the existing configuration of the user form to apply also on the "Vendors > Contact People tab > Add Contact" page

    This idea was opened by Ex Libris to see how the community supports it.

  4. Pick from shelf include statistical category, Title in 245ab and order of column

    Currently, there are no way to include additional column to the spreadsheet export of pick from shelf. It would be very useful to add statistical category to the pick from shelf list for additional data of requestor. Options to include Title in 245ab would avoid long title to look for. Allowing custom order of column would be very useful as well.
