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…

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

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.

Selectors not notified when title(s) rejected
I have the roles/permissions to approve/reject titles placed in Rialto's select cart. However, when I reject titles the selector isn't notified; as far as they know, it's going ahead. I need to contact the person, list the title(s), and explain why they were rejected. I'm frankly astounded that Market doesn't do this automatically.

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

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".

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.

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.

Flag EBC suscribed content (Acdemic Complete) in Rialto as OASIS does to avoid duplicate orders, even without a MARC record in Alma
OASIS flags titles that are part of Academic Complete or Literature & Language collections, if the institution subscribes to those collections. Rialto only relies on holdings in Alma to identify existing access. However, if an AC MARC record is missing, Rialto allows you to purchase access to EBC subscribed content.
Could you consider adding subscribed content alerts in Rialto based on what is currently active in Academic Complete, please?
4 votesHello,
We are exploring adding title-level subscription holdings details to listed offers. Thank you for the idea.
Also, within the offering details metadata we do display the name of the collection the offering is a part of, you just need to hover over the collection icon in the offer details area.

Textbook Identification and Facets
To help identify textbooks in the marketplace - a new facet should be included to both label materials as textbooks and to sort/remove textbooks when reviewing materials.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Display clearly My Institution availability on Network zone electronic holdings panel
Instead of just displaying the name of the held-by network on the holdings panel, it would be better if it also displays that it's available for My Institution, something like this: Electronic Material Held by "Network Zone name" available for "My Institution."
This way, we don't need to click on the link to see holdings record details and availability for my institution.

add an email notification option for purchase requests
When a purchase request happens, let us add an email notification. I check email more often than Alma. Orders are a priority I need to be alerted quickly

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.

Expanding EBA Badge Options in Rialto
The EBA badge in Rialto is currently available only for a few platforms, Taylor & Francis and Ebook Central. The badge cannot be displayed for collections not hosted on these platforms or for locally created collections. It would be beneficial for libraries to have the option to control whether EBA collections appear in Rialto by adding the badge.

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.

Multiple selectors
Librarian selectors like that they can see if a title they would like to order is already awaiting approval. However, they would like to be able to go to the orders awaiting approval and add their name as an additional selector on that item to give it "weight/priority" to order by the Rialto manager. Could there be a way to add additional selector names as a +1 on orders awaiting approval?
3 votesHello Amanda,
Would the ability to add comments to orders awaiting approval cover this request? You could post a comment, tag the approver, they'd receive an email letting them know you've posted a note.
Thank you for your suggestion.
