Circulation info under library activity
In the title alerts it shows that there is library activity, and I can see if we have an older edition of that title. It would be very helpful to be able to see the circulation information for the title we already have within the title alert. It helps us decide if it is worth purchasing a new edition, and I currently have to navigate out of Rialto to check our catalogue then try to navigate back to where I was on my list

Allow setting Temporary Item Location from Cart/Templates
Hello,
Currently, when filling out order details/applying a template to an item in a Rialto cart, there is only one field where users are able to set a location: "Shelving Library/Location".
This field appears to apply to the resulting item's permanent location. It would be helpful if we were also able to set a temporary location from the cart/templates.4 votesThank you for your suggestion.

1-click Bulk assign orders awaiting approval
Allow users to Select All in orders awaiting approval and enable a button or link to "Assign to me" Right now the only way to assign to yourself an order awaiting approval is to "interact somehow" with an individual title. I want to bulk assign all of the orders awaiting approval to me. We have multiple people approving orders. It should be as easy to assign orders as it is to unassign.

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.

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…

Allow for the removal, suppression, or the ability to null out the "Available Balance" in Rialto templates.
My institution would like a way to remove or otherwise alter the Available Funds amount show in individual selector templates. Selectors know the full collection budget but are allocated spending goals that allows us to account for over and under spending on the admin side. Having the full amount shown could cause confusion since the amount varies based on our different campuses that share the CD budget at varying amounts for each campus and, in some cases, assigned selector areas.

Streamline Rialto related workflows for purchase request initiated order approvals, by Selector assignment redesign
When initiating a Rialto Market Order via a Purchase Request, there is an unexpected assignment of the order to the Selector after Sending for Approval.
This causes an additional unnecessary step navigating through a popup for our staff who are Approving the order, requiring them to change assignment from the Selector to the Approver, before they can Confirm approval.
This additional step only occurs when the starting point is a Purchase Request and does not happen when the starting point is the Market.The expected workflow for the Selector:
Acquisitions > Purchase Requests > Manage Purchase Requests > Unassigned >…1 voteThank you for your suggestion.

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.

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?
3 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.
Best regards,

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".

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.

Improve integration between 'Place on hold' in Rialto and Tasks widget in Alma
If the 'Place on hold' option is ticked when placing an order in Rialto, there is no notification in the Tasks widget in Alma to let Library staff know when an item has arrived. This means we are unable to prioritise the processing of those items. If we were to use 'Place on hold' in Rialto, then we wouldn't find out an item had been requested until we happened to scan it in.
Could integration between Rialto and the requests functionality be improved please to make it apparent to Alma users when items received have been requested?

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.

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.

Allow libraries to toggle the 'Approve and order' option in the 'Manage Purchase Requests' workflow
We’ve recently discovered that our librarians, despite only having the selector role in Rialto, and thus not being able to directly place orders, are still creating POLs in Alma by selecting the ‘Approve and order’ option in the ‘Manage Purchase Requests’ workflow.
In our case, a few dozen POLs were created that had no vendor, fund code, shelving location, no platform or access model for eBooks, and no format or edition for print titles. Getting all of this after the fact from the librarians then editing the POLs is quite cumbersome and undoes a lot of the efficiency Rialto otherwise…

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.
