Improve the ability to run concurrent fiscal years in Rialto
We generally run concurrent fiscal years in Alma for a short time while completing orders and invoices in one year and begin renewing resources and paying invoices in the next fiscal. When placing a manual POL in Alma a dropdown appears to choose a fund for either fiscal year. But in Rialto the POL defaults to the new fiscal year even if a cart template for the old fiscal year is used. Please align Rialto ordering with Alma and give the choice of using either fiscal year fund.

Have weekly order status reports list ALL outstanding orders and indicate those with an updated status from the previous week.
I receive a report each Tuesday but it only shows orders with a change to the status. It would be more useful to me to have a report showing all open orders and some sort of indicator (or sorted in such a manner) that orders that have been updated (or added) since the previous week are included. I find some orders sit for weeks or months with no action and complete report of all titles would help me to keep better tabs on it.

Please enable filtering within Order History to identify ebooks which have been activated/not activated
We want to be able to identify any titles that remain unactivated so that we can manually resolve (or report) without having to scroll through order history.

e-mail list to another user
When you send a list for approval in Rialto it places the individual titles in the cart. However, we would like to send the list to the approver before putting it in the cart. It would therefore be useful to have an alert which sends an e-mail to the approver alerting him that a list is ready for review before ordering.

Delete shared lists in Rialto for all users
When deleting a shared list in Rialto it is only possible to delete the list for oneself only. The list remains visible for all other user who had shared access. Would it be possible to add the option "delete for me" and "delete for everyone" . At present I have to un-share the list before I can delete it to make sure that no copies remain with colleagues

Transfer Multiple Items from Cart To List
There is no way to mass transfer all the items in a cart onto a list. Items can only be sent from the cart to a list one at a time. I think it would be beneficial to have the ability do a bulk transfer of an entire cart to a list.

Improve Rialto Configuration visibility and editing access for the Rialto Administrator role
Currently Rialto is a ‘black box’ for a great deal of configuration which is controlled by Ex Libris and only visible to Ex Libris. For many settings, customers do not even have Read access, let alone Edit access. This issue is compounded by extremely minimal documentation on Rialto administration that configuration settings even exist at all and the options for them.
This leads to situations we have experienced where we began ordering physical titles through Rialto and were incorrectly billed in the wrong currency. And another where our EDI was not functioning as expected, due to invisible misconfiguration. And another…2 votesThank you for your suggestion.

Easy access to Rialto 'Orders awaiting approval'
Currently in Alma you can access the orders awaiting approval in the Tasks widget on the home screen. To get to Rialto orders awaiting approval there a two ways. Through the left flyout menu, taking a few clicks, or by going to settings on the Alma home screen and pinning the Task list (top Alma banner) and having Rialto show. Neither way is easy or convenient like the Tasks widget

Add Templates to Cart defaults (Title Alerts)
To be able to add existing cart templates at a title alert level to the cart defaults tab instead of manually adding it to each title alert. Currently I apply the template when it has been added to the cart which limits me to working on one area at a time.

Specific Days for Title Alerts to Run
Be able to set a specific day of the week for each title alert to run so I can run/review similar groups at the same time. Currently my title alerts are all set to a review day of Sunday but they seem to pull based on the day of the week they were created not on the review day.

Add a "Create cart templates" privilege to Rialto roles (or allow Rialto Admin role to view all Cart Templates in the institution)
We are just implementing Rialto and we would like to be able to control who can create Cart Templates by having a role privilege that can be removed upon request from particular roles.
Pre-Rialto implementation, we already have occasional problems with orders being created for the wrong physical location, for example, Course Reserves orders given the wrong permanent location which means that a holdings update needs to be done by our cataloguing team later down the track.
We would like to have a set of Cart Templates that all our staff make use of so that we know everyone is…

Email Alerts for Order Rejections
When an order is rejected, the selector should be emailed an alert instead of solely relying on the notifications section of Alma. Selectors often don't think to check notifications in Alma. There are already title alert notifications via email so this functionality should not require much development.

Move items in bulk from Orders Awaiting Approval to a list
Currently titles in "Orders Awaiting Approval" can't be sent to a list in bulk. The only option is to "Reject" them and then send them to a list one at a time. One example of when this would be useful is titles that are not yet published. They currently sit waiting sometimes for months and just create clutter. Not to mention I don't want to "reject" them. It would help tremendously if I could move them in bulk to a list.

Enhance the search options in Market > Order History
Currently the search options available in Market > Order History are Title, ISBN, PO Line Reference, and MMS ID.
It is found that the Title field searches only by 245 $a main title and does not search by also 245 $b, despite that both the 245 $a and $b display in the UI side panel.
This leads to a frustrating experience with poor return for many titles but particularly in cases such as a short main title and more detailed subtitle.
For example: “Why? The purpose of the universe” (see attachment).
This behaviour was reported in a case and advised…69 votesThe Rialto team has reviewed this idea and this work has been planned on our short-term roadmap. Thank you for your feedback and support.

Show title's language in ALL Rialto pages
Currently, the language of the edition is specified in the market under the author when searching by the ISBN or title, and under the edition when you click the title. We propose that the language of the book be consistently displayed on all Rialto pages. There is no clear indication of the language on the page where we actually decide which edition to purchase (please see screenshot). The edition with the tag 'Purchased in Rialto' in the screenshot is actually a Russian title, even though the title is in English.
It would also be helpful to have an option to…42 votesThank you for your suggestion. The Rialto team is reviewing this idea to determine how it might fit into our future plans.
