"My Lists" should include a total cost option
We frequently need to order with a strict cap on funds. When utilizing Rialto's "My Lists" to plan purchases, it would be helpful if the list could show a "Total Cost" for items in the list. Otherwise, we need to add items to the Shopping Cart, see the total, go back to the list and adjust until we've added the proper amount of orders to the cart. Or we can do the math outside of the system. It would simplify and speed up the Rialto ordering process if "My Lists" included a "Total Cost" option.

"In your lists" tag hyperlinked to take you directly to the list in question.
When looking at a record in Alma that flags up as "In your lists," it would be really helpful if the "In your lists" tag is hyperlinked to take you to the list in question so that comments can be added etc. At the moment it doesn't even tell you which list it is in, and to get to them you have to go to the My Lists link and look for it.

Allow sharing or exporting of notifications
Currently, only orders that I have approved appear as a notification when Rialto cancels the order. It would be great to be able to share my notifications with another user or be able to export the list of notifications. This would allow other staff to easily work with orders in my notification list.

Upgrade ProQuest Ebook Central Licenses within Rialto
It is currently not possible to upgrade ProQuest ebook licenses within Rialto. Instead, users must go to LibCentral to do this. We should be able to do this in Rialto.

Discounted Price in RIALTO
Please show the actual price the library will pay (print items) in RIALTO. It is difficult to make purchasing decisions without knowing the cost.

Trouble with one-time orders when invoice line total price is lower than the PO Line total price
For Rialto one-time orders, if the invoice line total price is lower than the PO Line total price, Alma does not update the order and invoice correctly. Alma does not release the remaining encumbrance, nor does it update the Invoice Status to Fully Invoiced and the POL status to Closed. You can run three Alma jobs to release the encumbrance and fix the statuses, but we believe 1) Alma should do this automatically instead of requiring customers to run jobs or 2) Ex Libris should offer the ability to release the encumbrance just like it does now with continuous orders.

Automatic template updates at Fiscal Rollover
Automatic updates for templates with new funds for the upcoming fiscal year. Currently, only those who created the templates can update the funds, which can create some logistical issues.

Add a button/method to have Rialto follow-up on an existing order without having to submit a case with support.
Primarily thinking of items that have not been filled after a reasonable amount of time and do not have any updates (i.e. claimed from publisher, not yet published, not yet activated, etc) if there was a button to ask Rialto to provide a status update, this would be great.

Additional order reject reasons.
Please add additional options for order reject reasons or an "Other" option where the approver can provide additional details. There are occasions when our approver needs to order titles from an outside vendor. In these instances, our approver currently selects "Duplicate order," and this leads to confusion among our selectors.

Per user feeds
Rialto should support per user feeds that are useable only by users that they are assigned to. This will create a less cluttered experience for selectors that are only interested in their own feeds.

Notifications when saved forthcoming titles are officially published
We have a running list of not yet published titles that we frequently check for publication updates. We also have a handful sitting in our Orders Awaiting Approval cart. It would be great if Rialto could send us a notification when saved titles are officially published and available for purchase (not pre-order).

More information on publisher permissions for each ebook in Rialto Marketplace.
More complete information on publisher permissions for ebooks would be helpful. For example, (1) if printing or saving is allowed, and, if so, the number of pages allowed to be printed or saved, (2) if copying/pasting is allowed, and (3) if downloading is allowed, the number of pages that are allowed to be downloaded.

Add a Shipping Time Facet to Marketplace search results
Please add a Shipping Time facet to results from a Marketplace search. In this way selectors can quickly know if items are "In Stock, Usually ships within a few days" or will take longer to ship. I always look for this when selecting titles. This facet will make the process much easier. Thanks.

Viewing the pdf invoice in Rialto
Previously in Oasis, we were able to download the pdf of the physical invoice that was sent. We would like to be able to click on a pdf link to download the pdf invoice from Rialto. It would be helpful in comparing the physical invoice to the invoice generated in Alma from Rialto.

Edition info in holdings
Would be useful if the institution holdings information when searching marketplace displayed edition info (i.e. 2nd ed, 3rd ed...) - currently shows just date and ISBN. Might be easier to establish current stock at a quick glance.

Title Alerts list functionality improvements
Use case: I have 30+ title alerts and need to add a parameter to each of them. When I go into an alert and edit it, clicking Save takes me back to the top of the list. Even when I'm on the second page.
Need: Save should take me back to the same place in the list where I left off. The last-clicked alert should be highlighted (as it is when I don't make a change and click Cancel).
Also, the list of title alerts should be exportable--just like every other list in Alma.

Improve matching between format of order and format of bibs in Network Zone
Matching routines between Rialto and Alma focus on the ISBN as a match point, primarily using 020$a and 020$z, but also using 775$z and 776$z. When a Rialto institution is in a consortium using a Network Zone, and the NZ is configured as the repository for records to be added, this match method may result in false matches between records of different formats.
For example, a title selected in Rialto for a one-time print book purchase may be matched on a bibliographic record for the electronic version based on the ISBN found in a 776$z. The 776 field identifies an…

Have the amount listed as "freight" on PDF invoices map to "shipping" by default instead of "overhead." This would be clearer for Analytics.

Add a link to the Alma record and/or View in Discovery link from the order history section, so the title or ISBN doesn't need to be copied and pasted to view the record in Alma or Primo.
