Allow Alma to export preferred names to ILLiad when automatically creating ILLiad user records
When Alma automatically created an ILLiad user record for someone who has submitted a resource sharing request that must be exported to ILLiad, it always passes the First Name and Last Name fields to ILLiad even if the user's records contains a Preferred First Name and/or Preferred Last Name. It would be incredibly helpful if Alma could pass preferred names to ILLiad if the user's record contains any preferred names.

Duke would also like this feature. We have patrons with preferred names and would want this to be in place so they are addressed as they want to be called.

I agree with asking ExLibris to pass preferred names onto ILLIAD.
