Designate location for Restore Temporary Shelved Items job
We've recently begun investigating Due Back Date functionality and using the Requests - Restore Temporary Shelved Items job to help manage restoring temporarily shelved items more consistently and less manually. Currently, there is no option to designate a specific temporary location for the Requests - Restore Temporary Shelved Items job to pull from, so All items in a temporary location with a due back date in the past are processed with this job.
Due Back dates are assigned to course reserve items placed in a temporary location, resources sharing items in temporary locations, and items in other temporary locations such a new book display or other exhibits.
Generating restore requests for a specific set of items in a specific location would be very helpful and would facilitate a very automatic workflow for restoring items from our new book (or any other specific temporary location we choose) display to their permanent locations.
Thank you for your consideration.

Could the option to do this at a specific location within a library be added? Support has informed us this functionality is only configurable by library, rather than a specific location within the library.

Thank you Moshe Shechter. I will make the suggestion to system's folks at my institution.

Please note that support can set up Restore Jobs Profiles that would limit the job to work only on specific temporary and/or permanent location. This may help solve your requirement.
