Make it possible to choose to which Work Order Department an item goes after receipt (not just Acquisitions)
We have noticed that our real-life workflow doesn't align well with Alma's behavior regarding receiving items. In practice, when we receive an item, it promptly moves to a different department – transitioning from acquisitions to the catalog department. In Alma, however, achieving this requires manual department adjustments each time an item is received. While we are familiar with options such as "keep in department," "shelf ready," and work orders, none of these options yield the desired outcome or contribute to streamlining the process. Our objective is to minimize unnecessary clicks, and it would greatly enhance the user experience if items could automatically switch to a desired department upon receipt.

Please note: such a setting should not be adjustable for the entire institution, but also at sublibrary level (or location level). Thanks!
