Automatically populate Material Type and Terms of use dropdowns in request forms
In the physical request form in Primo it is common for there to be a single value in the Material Type and Terms of Use dropdowns. It is common for users to click on these dropdowns to see what the options are only to find there is only a single value to choose from.
When there is only a single value to choose from it would be nice if The Material Type and Terms of Use fields were displayed to the user as not editable and with no dropdown displayed. This would save the user having to click into the dropdown to find there is only one option to choose from.

Hi,
Do note that leaving the drop down value empty is not equivalent to filling it in with the only existing value. For example, if there is only one Terms of Use option, leaving the drop down empty would mean that if more copies are at any time added to the title with different terms of use, they will also be considered requested. If the only terms of use option is selected, the new copies (with the different terms of use) will not be considered requested.
Thanks,
Moshe
