sort order history
Not sure if there was a glitch in the system today...
I ordered 11 items but when I went into the order history, one of the items was not listed , or so I thought, as usually the most recent orders are on page 1. This 'missing' order was on page 3.
Can the sort feature be enabled such that the most recent orders always appear on page 1?1 vote -
Additional fields on Rialto to input useful information
We often ask ProQuest to order titles which are available on Amazon but on Rialto there is nowhere we can add the Amazon link which we can do in Oasis.

Next Day Delivery for Non-Serviced Books.
There are instances where we need to get physical copies of books as quickly as possible. Currently we order them from Amazon but would prefer if Rialto had an option for this. Would be great to place urgent orders with no servicing and receive them within 24 hours.

Purchase request form customizations
I suggest that the "requested format" field in the purchase request form should be customizable and optional.
Also, it would be great with the opportunity for a language switcher - allowing for multiple languages.

Need an API that we could search using ISBN that would tell us what we own in E and P and also tell us what is available to purchase
Need an API that we could search using ISBN or a few other select identifiers that would tell us what we own in E and P and also tell us what is available to purchase with format, price and licensing info. It would also be necessary to have the search function similarly to the way it does in Rialto with a fuzzy match/FRBR type logic based on an exact match option or fuzzy match option in the API call. It would also be desired to perhaps then be able to "batch" order a set of the items after processing either…

Recommendation Feeds for Print Only Books
We would like the ability to create recommendation feeds for print only books (meaning there are no ebook versions available in Rialto).
The use case is that we purchase complete publisher front list ebook collections and some of them do not have the rights to publish books in electronic format (this often happens with art titles). We exclude these publishers from all our selector feeds to minimize duplicate purchases.
It would be nice to include print only titles (either in existing selector feeds or new ones specifically for this purpose) so selectors won't miss them.

interested user
Currently I can only add up to five interested users in Rialto. If I have more than five interested users I have to go to the POL in Alma and add the additional interested users. I would like to be able to increase the number of interested users I can add in Rialto.

Uploading ISBNs to the SEARCH menu to retrieve Alternate results back only
When we upload searches to Market using an Excel spread sheet with the ISBN, have it to where we can retrieve the alternate results only. For example, we can upload Print ISBNs to get back only eBooks ISBN would be an IDEAL search if we can perform that. Or, exclude out what we don't want initially using SEARCH, add more options there. It's not enough options for us to choose what to exclude.

Author Affiliation should only show when author is employed by the institution
We like to purchase books published by our faculty, but Author Affiliation also tags where an author received a degree (any degree), without differentiating between the two different affiliations.

Apply account credits/deposits from LibCentral in Rialto
Would like the ability to apply account credits/deposits from LibCentral in Rialto purchases. At this time, in order to pay for a Rialto order with deposit funds, it requires 3 steps.
1) Wait for invoice to generate
2) Contact PQ customer support and request that they apply the invoice to deposit funds
3) Wait for request to process and receive cleared invoiceThis whole series can take several business days to complete. It would save a LOT of staff time and energy on all sides to create this purchase capability in Rialto. At checkout, there should be an option to…

Ability to Set Parameters in Purchase Request Forms
We have a preferred set of publishers, platforms, and/or vendors that buy eBooks from. Currently, there is no way to set up Purchase Request Forms for our users to request ONLY from those preferred sellers.
It would be great if there was a way to define our preferred publishers (and even other facets) in the Purchase Request Form configuration, so we don't have to deny a ton of incoming requests.

Bulk Assignment
Rialto ebook orders immediately get imported to the Electronic Resources task list with no assignment. If you need to assign these tasks to a user, you must assign each ebook to the user one by one. It would be much easier to have a bulk assignment option to select all/some ebooks from the task list and assign to one user (e.g. E-Resource Technician or Acquisitions Librarian) all at once.

Separate finalizing stage from Purchase Request form page with confirmation message and link to create new request
Currently, the finalizing stage is completed on the same page as the rest of the form. However, I believe it would be more effective if the message of finalization appeared on a different, separate page, where the patron doesn't see the request fields. This separation would provide a clearer distinction between the completion of the form and the finalization process.
Additionally, I recommend adding a link in the finalizing stage page, that allows the user to create a new Purchase Request.
I believe these enhancements would improve the user experience and make the process more transparent and user-friendly.

Improved cover image display in results list and offer details
While it is nice to have cover images for titles on the results list and offer details, it would be useful to be able to view a larger version of the thumbnail in display. (This type of pop out/over display is common with most book vendor websites.) Some book covers are very detailed and the details aren't all easily reflected in the associated offer's display, so being able to see a larger view of the cover may help with identification and selection. Currently, clicking on the cover image thumbnail in the results list brings up the offer, and clicking on…

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.43 votes -
Export Feed to Title Alert
Please add the ability to save or export a Feed as a Title Alert. Building a Feed and Title Alert are very similar, and it would save our staff time if they could export an existing Feed to a Title Alert.

Add shelving location to the market query builder
This could be a neat feature, useful for example to find ebook offerings for print books within a certain location.

Blocking Titles Meeting Certain Criteria from Rialto Searches/Recommendation Feeds
It would be very helpful if Rialto administrators could completely block titles from appearing in Rialto searches, selector recommendation tools, etc. if they meet certain predefined criteria. The use case is when a library purchases complete annual ebook collections from publishers and does not want to risk duplicate purchasing. Administrators could create a "block profile" with specific publisher and year criteria and then apply it across all of Rialto so selectors don't see these titles when searching or reviewing recommendation feeds.
