Allow filtering by Market Place badge
When creating a list of items from a set of ISBNs it would be helpful to be able to filter by titles that have the badge "Library Activity" or other badges e.g. "David's List". Either to filter these out (David is dealing with that title), or filter down to "Library Activity" to check what this might be or exclude it from a results set (e.g. is this a new edtion/format, or anything already available we are not interested in). In general having the ability to filter by badge in any area could would be useful for narrowing down in different…

Ability to create default market search settings for our institution, including exclusion of self-published titles
We'd like to be able to toggle off (i.e. exclude) self-published publishers in the market search as the default for any basic search in rialto across our institution. The ability to set other facets in the search as default could also be helpful.

Add to DDA as part of Cart workflow to allow for use of templates, interested user notifications, and notes
Currently, when adding a title to the DDA pool, selectors can only apply fund, ordering library, and various reporting codes the title. We are hoping to use our DDA for user requests and would like to notify the requesting users at the point when the title becomes available not when the title is eventually triggered. Furthermore, different selectors are applying different reporting codes for different titles when adding to the DDA pool. It would make things much more efficient if there was a way to template DDA additions.
All of these problems would be solved by allowing titles to be…

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.

Notes in title alerts
To be able to add notes & comments to titles at the title alert level. Currently we are only able to add notes to the books once they have been added to a list.

Add 'Refunded' status in the facets for ebook orders fulfilled/invoiced but later credited.
It would be useful to have a 'Refunded' status in the facets showing orders cancelled after fulfilment. At the moment they display as 'order complete' like every other order.
Having the option of portfolios being automatically deleted for credited titles would be useful too.

Consolidated purchase option view
Rialto currently lists purchase options individually in a way that you need to scroll and memorize to make a best purchase decision. I'd like a view that consolidates purchase options into one view to make comparison easier.

Need easier way to navigate between lists and Alma searching
One cannot call up a list of new titles for review in Rialto and then search Alma for local usage of the same authors and subjects without losing one’s place on the original title alerts list. Resulting in multiple clicks to get back to one’s place on the list. In this common collection development scenario, the inability to perform Alma searches while reviewing an alerts list is an unexpected hindrance.

Allow Alma library relationships to control purchasing via Rialto
We want our staff to have Rialto roles that are scoped only to our National library, and don't want to have to give them Rialto roles that have any other scope. We want them to be able to order electronic books for the National Library, as well as physical books for the other libraries in the institution, but we only want them to be able to do all this while logged into our Acquisitions Department (which is granted to them via the Work Order Operator role having the Acquisitions Department associated).
We have Library relationships set up in Alma Configuration…

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.

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.

Allow library to edit the Rialto purchase request form confirmation text
There is a green pop-up that appears when the purchase request form is submitted, and we would like this to be added to the form label table so that we can edit the text. Currently it says "Purchase request for {title} submitted".

Make library activity on the main list page to go directly to holdings.
It takes three clicks to see if we own it. Not duplicating titles in ebooks or physical is very important when ordering. It would save a lot of time

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.

Add a date picker field for the Rialto purchase request form
The Rialto form is limited by only being able to add a new text field. It would be useful to be able to select different types of input field, but primarily we would like a date picker for users to select the date they require the material by.

New editions of textbooks
Using combined information from Rialto and Leganto, flag new editions of textbooks in use in courses. Can currently only set up a title alert for all new editions from your library's catalogue but can't trigger it to only look at new editions of in-use textbooks.

Email notifications for Lists in Rialto
An email notification triggered and sent to a user(s) when a list in Rialto is shared with them. Also, an email notification for when a name(s) is added to the comments from a list in Rialto.
Users will see a red icon alert in Alma but an email notification sent to their inbox would help for those who do not frequent Alma.

Automated process to improve metadata based on data from publisher
It would be great if the system could pick up on pieces of information in the publisher-provided metadata to automatically fill out related fields in the records for titles in the marketplace. For example:
If the listed pagination is less than 100 or 50, put the title in the less than 50 pages or 50-100 pages category so those titles get filtered out when that criteria is set.
If the author name matches the publisher name, mark it as self-published.
If the description starts with "This title was first published in [year]" or the Edition is a known reprint series…

Rialto Market to Alma Purchase Request Crosswalk
When Selectors put purchase requests through the Alma Purchase Request form the Purchasing Manager can push the request to Rialto Market. But when Selectors put something in Rialto Market the Purchasing Manager cannot push it to Alma Purchasing Request form. This would be extremely helpful and eliminate the need to go into Rialto, cancel the order and re-create it from scratch in the Alma Purchase Request form.

Wiley Online Major Reference Works
Some Wiley Online Major Reference Works are updating and therefore have ongoing costs associated. I would appreciate if this information is shown in Rialto so when considering the purchase of the title, the purchaser is aware of it being an updating reference work or not.
