    I would encourage case submission for this defect when observed, as Alma is expected to abide by your configured system date format. I have reported one for the Expiration Date for Interested User account information in the New UX PO Line Task List being MM/DD/YYYY when our configuration is DD/MM/YYYY, and the case is with Development.

  2. when importing, create portfolio links *after* Process / Normalization Rules ( NR ) are applied (and not before as it is now)

    Could some user stories be shared as to how particular information is used by staff in practical situations? We use statistical categories too for things like reporting engagement by loans of physical collections, but I'm not thinking of any scenarios for ours where they would need to be immediately visible for circ desk interactions like loaning a book.

    This seems like a defect to account comprehensively for possible input into a search box.

    I also agree completely with Elizabeth's comment for this functionality to be available by a job embedded within Alma and completely supported within that product, rather than a Cloud App.

    Can it be advised what "GTI" stands for?

    I have just written up an idea for the same thing and only then thought to see if someone else had already submitted! Thanks!

    I also thought Description would be useful for our particular use case, but preference Barcode overall.

    Given I took the time to write it up, I'll add the details in full in the event it proves useful to reinforce the suggestion, and I'll also attach my screenshot example for our use case of accidental deletion of two items instead of one and wanting to Restore. The Customize View display flows through to the excel export.

    ----------

    Please add Barcode and Description to the Customize View display options in Manage Deleted Repository

    Adding the Barcode and Description to the Customize View option display in Resources > Advanced Tools > Manage Deleted Repository would be very useful for troubleshooting and the Restore workflow for multiple copies of the same title withdrawn on the same day, particularly for the Physical Items option.
    While most of the information fields available already focuses on title level information, there is a precedence for item level information such as Item call number, Permanent Location, and Copy ID (but we don’t actively use Copy ID and do use Barcode).
    If only one field was decided to be added of the two suggested of Barcode and Description, the preference would be for Barcode.
    Please see the screenshot attached example where it is impossible to differentiate between the two items deleted, hindering the ability to effectively move forward to restore the one which was mistakenly deleted.

    Under Review  ·  AdminErez Shabo (Senior Product Owner, Ex Libris) responded

    Hello everyone,

    I’d like to share our plans to introduce support for XSL (Extensible Stylesheet Language) normalization rules. This new feature is designed to handle complex normalization tasks and offers the flexibility of a full programming language, enabling advanced data manipulation. It will complement our existing normalization rules based on DROOLS, preserving all of its current capabilities. 

    Would the addition of this new type of normalization rule address the requirement outlined in this idea?

    No.1 sounds like a defect rather than an idea for product enhancement.

    I have concerns that this suggested change would do more harm than good, given the known and observed situation of many CDI records only containing the physical identifiers. I believe a better option is to push Ex Libris to improve their metadata, which would require cooperation with providers providing this data for the index also.

    I'm sorry that I don't understand what this means.
    Are you suggesting that only 1 request can be submitted and then all other patrons will try to place a request and get a message of being denied?
    Or that they wouldn't see the option to place a request at all in the discovery environment?
    Why are requests being cancelled for lack of copies? Do you mean your staff cancel them manually, as otherwise they would just be pending not yet active until a copy is returned?
    I'm not sure how that would be less confusing to a patron to have to know that if the availability information is Requests: 1 that this means they can't place a request themselves.
    Could it be explained a bit more?

    I have too few votes available to devote to this and we don’t actually use course information at our site, but am commenting support for the underlying premise of expectation of customer autonomy over what local data is searchable in their own discovery environment for their own records.
    This is a logical and reasonable baseline standard, is available to customers using Primo managed by Back Office, and Ex Libris should have prioritised maintaining the option of choice when developing Primo VE, rather than deciding just to hardcode their chosen OTB.

    I wonder if the existing Originating System field will meet this need? OTB this will display as Unknown but can be configured to display meaningful information, including by Import Profile. https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Product_Documentation/010Alma_Online_Help_(English)/080Analytics/Alma_Analytics_Subject_Areas/Titles
