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.71 votesHello,
We developed this feature to not have authentication. There is a form available in Alma that does support authentication. I searched and I think this answer provides links to how to create an authenticated form in Alma: Direct Linking to the Purchase Request Form - Ex Libris Knowledge Center (exlibrisgroup.com)

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.
48 votesHello,
The Rialto team has reviewed this idea but at this time we cannot commit it to the roadmap as outside (provider) commitments are required to do so. Note, we did include full download/chapter download within the offer detail display as part of the February 2022 release, though it was not captured in the release notes as part of a broader enhancement to the area.

Activate electronic inventory in Alma regardless of invoicing by provider platform for Rialto
Rialto aligns activation of electronic inventory in Alma with invoicing by the provider platform, except for Rapid Activation providers.
This causes a poor patron experience when we find that the platform may very quickly activate a resource, but take longer to provide an invoice.
In sum, the patron doesn’t get the Interested User notice of access for sometimes weeks, only due to paperwork and library staff having to do manual work to follow up orders open for an unexpectedly long period.It is suggested that all providers supplying electronic inventory orders via Rialto have the same process flow as for…
32 votesHello,
Elizabeth is correct, we aren't able to activate portfolios until we have been notified by the provider that the item is available. For some platforms, this comes with their invoice. If we make things available before we are notified that they are available there would be times where we didn't have a URL for activation or that if a patron tried to access the item it would not be available on the platform. That being said, we are trying to optimize activation to ensure it happens in Alma as quickly as possible.
Thank you for your idea.

DDA pool - display more information about when titles were added and who added them
We would like to be able to see the date/time when titles were added to the DDA pool, and which operator added them. Currently it is only possible to filter by month. Date/time would make it easier to troubleshoot when the MARC records occasionally don't get imported by the Repository import in Alma PDA.

Add vendor account information to the EDI file
Currently, EDI files for Rialto do not include the vendor account information, requiring us to manually enter this information for each invoice. This requires numerous extra clicks in order to close invoices. Per Alma's documentation, this information can be automatically populated using the RFF+API input field. We would like the EDI configuration updated to include this field.

Added detail to badges
We sometimes see the badge "in your institution" for an item in the marketplace, but when looking at the detailed holdings information, it's actually a different edition or format. It would be helpful to have an alternate badge in those cases: something like "in your institution- mismatched ISBN", "in your institution- alternate edition", or "in your institution- alternate format". This way, we could tell at a glance whether we owned the exact edition or format we're looking to purchase.

Reporting code selection
After the March update, we are seeing a drop down with radio buttons for the reporting code field. You must select the reporting code and then click off of the drop down in order for the drop down to disappear. This is not efficient when working through the orders. Since this is new behavior implemented by the Rialto developers, we would like to have the ability to disable this feature and regress back to the original behavior which is being able to select recently used or selecting the code then having the drop down disappear after the selection.

Ability to configure purchase forms in Alma
Add the ability to configure the purchase forms used in the cart by selectors.
At the moment you can change what fields are viewed as default by your institution but they can be reselected by an individual user creating their own view.
For example we do not use item policy and we do not want all users being able to send notes to vendors from this form.

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.

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 order template to be applied at selection stage rather than in cart
Option to add order template at item selection stage to enable users to fill up their cart with multiple items and check out just once per session. Currently a template can only be added once an item is within the cart; meaning a user must remember each item's requirements and apply the correct template if they have a full cart of items, or have to check each item out individually.

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

Include Call Number / Classification information on Orders Awaiting Approval records
The appropriate location for physical materials in our library is dependent on the call number. Our selectors don't know the breakdown, and by the time an offer is awaiting approval, the call number/classification information isn't listed in the task list; an approver would have to go back to the Title in the Market to get that relevant information. We'd like the call number/classification information in the brief results on the Orders Awaiting Approval page to avoid this extra step.

Automatic interested users
Can we elect to have Rialto purchasers automatically inserted as interested users into an order? That way, anyone that orders an item in Rialto will automatically be notified when the item is available. Right now, I have to add them in prior to receiving the item.
