How can we improve Alma?

Automatic Hold Item check for its interested user

Please make it possible that when a PO line has an interested user, its Hold Item gets checked automatically by using any of the following methods:

1) the library's configuration change
2) Import Profile setting
3) Update PO line job

This function is necessary for Patron-Driven Acquisitions which takes up most of our purchases. Now we manually open each PO line and tick the box one by one, which is one of the biggest hassles when there are hundreds of PO lines to review.

    This is especially useful for POL created via purchase request, which does not have Hold Item checked for interested users by default. Manually checking them one by one takes to much effort.

    Totally Agree!!

    or, at least, make this default configurable = ability to set the "Hold Item" value default to Yes / No.

    I would also suggest that the receive notification be toggled this way, too.
    We have invoicing & receiving separate for some vendors. The receive notification has to be manually toggled on each ordered item for the notification to flag.

    This sounds so useful!

    This is essential for the work we do with multiple pol.
