Discounted Price in RIALTO
Please show the actual price the library will pay (print items) in RIALTO. It is difficult to make purchasing decisions without knowing the cost.

Allow multiple holdings on the same import job
Multiple copies for the same title under different library locations processed on the same import job, fail to update bib correctly.
When multiple bib records within the same import job for the same title are imported from the system, only the first record from the file is merged with the bib record, and all subsequent records (for other libraries or locations) are matched and skipped.

Add a button/method to have Rialto follow-up on an existing order without having to submit a case with support.
Primarily thinking of items that have not been filled after a reasonable amount of time and do not have any updates (i.e. claimed from publisher, not yet published, not yet activated, etc) if there was a button to ask Rialto to provide a status update, this would be great.

Display the Process Type in the Rialto Holdings Panel
The Holdings panel in the Marketplace indicates whether the title is already in the institution holdings. In some cases, the item may not be available. It would be very useful if the process type (Missing, Lost, Claimed Returned, Acquisition, Loan, Hold Shelf...) would be displayed in the panel itself. The reason why it is not available is hidden. If we see ‘Missing’ or ‘Lost’, the library may be more inclined to buy a new copy. The information is available, though after several clicks.

Enhance the search options in Market > Order History
Currently the search options available in Market > Order History are Title, ISBN, PO Line Reference, and MMS ID.
It is found that the Title field searches only by 245 $a main title and does not search by also 245 $b, despite that both the 245 $a and $b display in the UI side panel.
This leads to a frustrating experience with poor return for many titles but particularly in cases such as a short main title and more detailed subtitle.
For example: “Why? The purpose of the universe” (see attachment).
This behaviour was reported in a case and advised…70 votes -
Add a Shipping Time Facet to Marketplace search results
Please add a Shipping Time facet to results from a Marketplace search. In this way selectors can quickly know if items are "In Stock, Usually ships within a few days" or will take longer to ship. I always look for this when selecting titles. This facet will make the process much easier. Thanks.

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.60 votes -
Notification of cancelled orders where a different ISBN will be supplied - better workflow with Alma POLs
If we place an order and later receive notification that the ISBN ordered is not available and a different ISBN is to be supplied, Rialto requires the cancellation of the original Alma POL and creation of a new one for the new ISBN in Rialto. Pre-Rialto, in such cases we could relink the Alma POL to a new bib record, which was quicker and created fewer cancelled POLs on Alma. We would like a more streamlined workflow for this scenario, requiring less manual work.

Make "In Your Institution" clearer
It would be great if we could more clearly differentiate when we hold the current edition listed in the marketplace verses a previous edition. We don't want to see items in a feed when we already hold a current edition, but we're likely to update editions when we already hold previous editions. Right now the amount of clicking needed and the location of that information is difficult for selectors to find.

Restrict funds in cart
We want to restrict funds available for selectors, so that they can only view funds assigned to them. This will simplify selection of funds, reducing errors and limiting access to sensitive information.

Per user feeds
Rialto should support per user feeds that are useable only by users that they are assigned to. This will create a less cluttered experience for selectors that are only interested in their own feeds.

Price Change Alert
Notify customers with an alert icon or popup when the price drops or increases for an item they have added to Cart or to a list.
In order to avoid alerts indicating insignificant increase or decrease (of a few cents for example), each customer should have the possibility to configure an alert threshold (as a percentage in 'Other Settings') in relation to the time when the item was originally added to Cart or the list.

Viewing the pdf invoice in Rialto
Previously in Oasis, we were able to download the pdf of the physical invoice that was sent. We would like to be able to click on a pdf link to download the pdf invoice from Rialto. It would be helpful in comparing the physical invoice to the invoice generated in Alma from Rialto.

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.

Provide the ability to control record linking by ISBN
We would like the implementation of an option that allows us to decide whether or not an order should automatically link itself to any single matching record with the same ISBN already existing in our system.
Currently, the automatic merging of records with the same ISBN creates confusion and inefficiency in our cataloguing process, which requires manual separation and correction.44 votes -
Show title's language in ALL Rialto pages
Currently, the language of the edition is specified in the market under the author when searching by the ISBN or title, and under the edition when you click the title. We propose that the language of the book be consistently displayed on all Rialto pages. There is no clear indication of the language on the page where we actually decide which edition to purchase (please see screenshot). The edition with the tag 'Purchased in Rialto' in the screenshot is actually a Russian title, even though the title is in English.

Add filters to order history to allow sorting by order status such as not yet published/backordered, claimed from publisher, etc.
I'd like a quick way to sort orders by order status without having to open each one. A filter for not yet published/backordered and another for claimed from publisher would be a great start. Also adding some sort of notification or filter for items that have had a change in publication date (i.e. originally due in December, new date is May)

adding interested users & location notes when adding to lists
When compiling patron-recommended books in a list for future ordering, we need to be able to add the patrons as interested users, as well as noting specific locations for some books. Currently we can add notes, but in order to do so, we have to put items in a list, then view the list, find the items, and add notes. The enhancement would streamline the process.

Improve accuracy and currency of availability information for titles
We frequently get notification of orders being cancelled despite them showing as available for purchase. It seems that the availability information is not as up to date as it could be and the result is a lot of time wasted in manually cancelling POLs in Alma. Please provide more up to date information on the actual availability of titles.

Cart values on lists
We'd like to display cart values (Item policy, reporting codes, interested users, cart routing, shelf ready values, notes) on lists. Values applied in the cart would carry over to lists, and if applied in a list they'll carry over the the cart. This will save time when moving items back and forth from lists and carts.
