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…70 votesThank you for your suggestion. The Rialto team is reviewing this idea to determine how it might fit into our future plans.

Display the Process Type in the Rialto Holdings Panel
The Holdings panel in the Marketplace indicates whether the title is already in the institution holdings. In some cases, the item may not be available. It would be very useful if the process type (Missing, Lost, Claimed Returned, Acquisition, Loan, Hold Shelf...) would be displayed in the panel itself. The reason why it is not available is hidden. If we see ‘Missing’ or ‘Lost’, the library may be more inclined to buy a new copy. The information is available, though after several clicks.

Provide the ability to control record linking by ISBN
We would like the implementation of an option that allows us to decide whether or not an order should automatically link itself to any single matching record with the same ISBN already existing in our system.
Currently, the automatic merging of records with the same ISBN creates confusion and inefficiency in our cataloguing process, which requires manual separation and correction.44 votesThank you for your suggestion.

Allow multiple holdings on the same import job
Multiple copies for the same title under different library locations processed on the same import job, fail to update bib correctly.
When multiple bib records within the same import job for the same title are imported from the system, only the first record from the file is merged with the bib record, and all subsequent records (for other libraries or locations) are matched and skipped.

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.

Price Change Alert
Notify customers with an alert icon or popup when the price drops or increases for an item they have added to Cart or to a list.
In order to avoid alerts indicating insignificant increase or decrease (of a few cents for example), each customer should have the possibility to configure an alert threshold (as a percentage in 'Other Settings') in relation to the time when the item was originally added to Cart or the list.

Display list owner name when viewing detailed information from the "In Other's List" tag
When looking at an item that is on another's list, one can hover over the tag to see the name of the list that the item is on. It would be helpful if the name of the owner of that list was also included in the information to facilitate communication about the title if necessary.

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

Allow for exclusion of "Not Yet Published" titles in Title Alert query
In order to utilize the Selection Plan Slip functionality coming in the March 2024 release, it would be helpful if we could exclude "Not Yet Published" titles from the Slip rules.
The use case we're concerned about is if a "Not Yet Published" title comes in on a Selection Plan Slip with only a print offer and an offer for the publisher site (ex. Routledge and Taylor & Francis), it's not something we'd want to firm order, but we would be interested in having it in DDA (but the DDA available offers haven't been added yet). If we reject it…

Enable authentication on purchase request web form
The customization options on the purchase request web form are great, but we cannot use it until the requestor can authenticate. We need to know who they are.
At present they appear as "Guest" in the request. An accident waiting to happen - when we update the requester to the wrong person.
Also we would only want this service available to institutional members, and would want to avoid mischievous use by unknown persons.63 votes -
User Tagging in Comments/Notes Across Rialto Platform
There is a very useful feature where selectors are able to tag each other in comments on items in lists. This feature doesn't seem to be available in other parts of Rialto such as from search results or in Title Alerts. It would be very useful for selector collaboration if user tagging could be expanded to more places throughout Rialto.

Add fields to My List export
When staff collate items in a list they use the comments field extensively. When the list is exported to excel the comments are not included. Can the comments field be added to the export?

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.

Internal item specific notes for titles on lists
It would be great if internal notes could be added to specific items that have been added to lists, with only ppl with access to said list(s) able to see the notes. This feature would be useful for rush/reserve/replacement/special orders when the selector needs to communicate information specific to the item.

Badge DDA titles visible in discovery as "In Your Institution" only AFTER purchase has been triggered/approved.
Is there a DDA pool-identifying condition that could be applied to the logic "if visible in local discovery, badge as 'in your institution' "
As it stands we have no way of knowing whether a title in the DDA pool is a duplicate, or completely new. At load, we may not own any titles in a pool, but we can end up acquiring some titles after the load is complete, e.g. in an update to an aggregate collection. We purchase multiple copies of the same title only under very special circumstances, and we can't be the only library with this…

add "move to list" option for orders waiting for approval
Right now in order to move requested items that are waiting for approval to a list, they have to be rejected. We are not rejecting them, we want to put them in a list to be ordered at a later date. Please add the option of "move to list".

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

Snag bibliographic records without holdings
Because we import our own OCLC records for print items, we must first add a Holding to each record before adding the title to the Rialto cart, otherwise Rialto will not snag that record.
It would be convenient if Rialto could snag records without holdings, and for the purchase process to create the holding(s) instead, as with non-Rialto orders.
