Add alert notification for expired weeding dates in Collection Development workflows
While testing Retention and Deselection workflows, we started using the "Item sequence for Weeding" configuration for the first time. This feature is valuable for colleagues planning deselection, who operate within the Collection Development workflow and assign future weeding dates to sets of items.
However, users reported a major usability issue: when a weeding date expires, there is no alert or notification (similar to a due-date alert). As a result, deselection tasks can be missed or delayed.
Request:
Add an alert/notification mechanism for expired weeding dates within the tasks list. This would improve task visibility, support timely actions, and increase workflow efficiency.
Thank you for your suggestion. The Rialto team is reviewing this idea to determine how it might fit into our future plans. We cannot provide a timeline for these ideas, but be sure to check back often and vote for the ideas you support to receive status and comment updates.
