Automatically suppress bib records generated from the Order It! Amazon plug in.
Allow the option to automatically suppress bib records created from the Order It! Amazon plugin. Additionally, allow the option to have the titles of the generated brief bibs typed in all capital letters as per standard practice for acquisitions brief bibs. Brief bibs typed in all caps help visually distinguish them from full bibliographic records.

Enable forcing barcode number for new items
When cataloguing a new item, we wish to force cataloguers to add barcode number before save. If some libraries do not want that, forcing the barcode field could be optional.

Add the ability to apply multiple rolling embargoes to a single electronic portfolio
If a portfolio has access to two sets of rolling publication dates, it would be helpful to have the option to apply multiple rolling embargoes. For example, an institution might access to the last 10-20 years of publication as well as the last 3 years of the publication, both on a rolling basis.

In E-inventory, we can get the POL Type for the main POL for a portfolio and we can get the portfolio's additional POLs, but we can't get the POL types for the additional POLs.

Need more facets electonic collection search
When searching for items in the CZ, I find the left side facets and sort by options to be too limited.
Would love a way to sort electronic collections by most recently added to CZ.
for example, I am looking to see if any new gale collections were added so I can activate them. There is no way to sort by this, and there is no facet on the left to limit to non-activated collections. Adding a left facet to search for In IZ or activated/non-activated collections would be very helpful.1 vote -
bluk edit vendor information
There is some information in vendor records which could be the same for all vendors, such as library, vendor type, whether to make vendors active or inactive, delivery claim information, etc. It would be great if there were a way to edit these details for multiple vendors at one time rather than going through each vendor to change their information.

ADD RECORDS TO SETS
Be able to add selected records to a set that's already created. There is often multiple ways to find records that are part of a group. It seems there's no ability to do a search and select records to add to a set that's already in existence. This could also help if multiple people are trying to find a large number of records that could belong to one set for export or modification.

Retrieve metadata available in MARC-XML also in JSON
When requesting "bib", all metadata should be available as JSON. Most fields are by now represented as a MARC-XML string, bundled into a field called "anies".

Improve integration between 'Place on hold' in Rialto and Tasks widget in Alma
If the 'Place on hold' option is ticked when placing an order in Rialto, there is no notification in the Tasks widget in Alma to let Library staff know when an item has arrived. This means we are unable to prioritise the processing of those newly arrived, requested items. If we were to use 'Place on hold' in Rialto, then we wouldn't find out an item had been requested until we happened to scan it in. We would like an integration between Rialto and the requests functionality putting in place to make it apparent to Alma users when items received…

Retain previous Sort Routine settings when viewing Items Received in Purchase Order Lines
NOTE: I posted this before noticing it had been previously suggested (though I did search and couldn't find it before posting, and now it's been deleted:??); my apologies. Suggestion: In the previous iteration the system remembered the previous sort routine setting when viewing a list of received items. The new version reverts to the Library/location setting for each search, even when making more than one search in the same purchase order line. The description sort is our primary setting, so each time we view the list of items, for example to see what has been received and whether there are…

Include a web service for renewing all loans at once in the API Users and Fulfilment
At the moment, POST /almaws/v1/users/{userid}/loans/{loanid} must be called individually for each loan. This is very time-consuming, especially in large accounts, and the general API limits must also be observed. It would be conceivable, for example, to introduce the loanid ALL, similar to GET /almaws/v1/bibs/{mmsid}/holdings/{holdingid}/items for the holdingid.
The "Retrieve Items list" has a feature, where ALL can be used for the holdingid parameter to retrieve all items from all holdings. In a similar way we could use POST /users/{userid}/loans/ALL to renew all loans.
Using POST /almaws/v1/users/{user_id}/loans as the most obvious solution is…

Display PO Line Notes entries in Analytics with the newest notes first, to ensure their inclusion within the character limit
Currently the 'PO Line Notes' field in the Alma Analytics 'Funds Exchange' subject area, displays the content of all note entries attached to a particular PO Line as a single block of text, starting from the earliest-dated note and ending with the latest-dated note. However, as the field's display in Analytics is limited to 4000 characters, this means that the most recent notes are omitted from the report for any PO Lines that are particularly longstanding or have particularly copious notes. This is true both for the report as displayed within the Analytics interface, and for a version exported to…

Allow sort configuration in Primo (VE and NDE) brief results view and Collections View
Currently as far as is known, search results and collections items can only be sorted by year. Multiple records with the same year creation date cannot be further sorted.
See https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Primo/Product_Documentation/Primo/Technical_Guide/010The_PNX_Record/080The_Sort_Section"[The Sort section] is not applicable to Primo VE environments. Only the Display, Facets, and Search sections are configurable in Primo VE"
I would like to be able to sort a set of records by specific date (day, month, year) in any list of multiple records (collection with items view, basic brief records view, etc.).
This could be based on whatever date structure is necessary (yyyymmdd, etc.) and could…

Add ILL cost/fee upon receive
Completion of scans via Resource Sharing - this now has to be done in 2 steps:
• First receive for the creation of a cost; then Upload File/Send file to patron
• Please note we also investigated the policies of creating a cost automatically based upon fulff unit rules and a dedicated TOU (with fee creation). However due to a lack of criteria and due to a complex range of agreements on adding fee’s we are not able to use this.Optimization is to avoid two steps:

Visibility of additional page range for citation records in Alma
The recent update to Alma allowing the addition of multiple page ranges has been very helpful—thank you for that.
However, I’ve noticed that in the Alma citation record preview, only the first page range is displayed. This can be a bit misleading when we’re monitoring citations, as it doesn’t reflect the full set of page ranges entered. However, the full page range is visible in the Leganto record.
Would it be possible to implement a similar preview that exists in Leganto, in the Alma citation record, that shows all the entered page ranges?
I’ve attached screenshots from both Alma and…1 vote
