Control Purchase Request Display in Primo by Material Type

Using display logic rules there is no easy way to show the Purchase Request link based on material type. We want to enable the purchase request link for ebooks, but not ejournals. I did come up with a hackey workaround by creating a GES that only does the identification of the journal and then a display logic rule to hide the purchase request if this GES is present, but there seems like there should be a better way to do this?

    Yes, please. We do not want the purchase request service for journals or articles. Thank you.

    Totally agree, we'd love to suppress purchase request when the item is a journal article or a journal - instead we have to reject the request and refer them to Inter-library loan. This wastes time for users and staff.
