Automatically Import Turnaways into Rialto Lists
We'd like to be able to set up an API or something similar that would automatically import turnaway lists into Rialto lists, to assist with quick purchasing & decision making. Ideally, we would like a list per platform, and the ability to set it up to run automatically on a chosen time frame (perhaps once a quarter).

LC Call Number order
Please fix the order of the LC Call numbers so they appear in LC Call Number order and not just numeric order by the first number in the string.

Assign different loan policies to an order of multiple copies
Please allow us to assign more than one loan policy to an order for multiple copies. This feature already exists in ALMA for general ordering. The request is to extend this feature to Rialto. Currently we must assign one loan policy to an order and add a receiving note to edit the item settings on receipt.

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.

Sort search results by LC classification
It would be great if we had the option to sort new title alert search results by LC Classification. While individual LCC letters already appear as facets, when reviewing longer lists with mixed subjects, it would be helpful to have items with similar subjects brought together on the longer list instead of having to move through each letter with the facets.

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…

When exporting lists from Rialto, it would be helpful if Dewey classification was included.

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?

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.

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.

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.
