This is a significant pain point that there is no source available of a list of subscribers to Analytics Objects scheduled emails.
This becomes problematic when subscribers no longer should be sent these emails. This may be because of a changed position to one which no longer has the relevant role in Alma or the aligned responsibilities, or leaving the library altogether.
In some cases, the staff member may simply forget to unsubscribe themselves and in other cases this may be quite a negative situation and this becomes a security and privacy issue for the Library.In Alma Analytics there is the Analytics Objects subject area and the Analytics Usage Tracking subject area.
In Alma there is the Analytics Object List.
Yet none of these three likely options includes any easy way to identify subscribers to scheduled emails.The only option currently is for an Analytics Administrator to step in and manually click into every single Analytics Object Scheduled Report, by clicking to see the full detail, scroll down or click to the Manage Subscriptions section, visually check the potentially long list of subscribers to see if the user / email is subscribed, click the … and Remove in they are, and repeat over and over again for each object.
This is minimum four clicks for every single object and there could be hundreds to check.I am reminded of this as we have had another instance of this pain point recently with a scenario of a staff member forgetting to unsub themselves upon retirement. Once our institution offboarded the email address when their employment officially ended after several weeks the Analytics reports starting streaming into our CRM system as bounces per the configured email. So, even with this bounce scenario as an ultimate failsafe, this generated even more work for non-Admin staff to handle these CRM ‘jobs’.
I support this suggestion to add this information to Alma Analytics, such as to the Analytics Usage SA, while also noting that another useful addition would be to the configuration menu itself, to include in the Export to excel option a column for Manage Subscriptions data to include the details of the subscribed accounts.

I think a mistake is made and this submission should be deleted and redone, lest the idea is wasted as not attracting votes. The title is the submitter email: laura.macneil@ed.ac.uk

This seems like it would be better as a support case, as a documentation issue but also a little more if there is a compliance lapse (rather than product development).

This appears to be spam, with three submissions by this user jeffreestar, all of which appear to be legitimate until there is a link to a random game at the end.

I think that we would get a lot of patron complaints if this was the behaviour. When the patron gets a pickup notice for an item on the holdshelf, they could bring the overdue item with them, have it returned, and then borrow their hold item.

While I completely agree with this need for documentation, I can't in good conscience give it any of my limited 25 votes, because it's not a new feature or improvement to existing functionality which is the purpose of this forum.
Ex Libris is responsible and expected to communicate and document their system and any system changes as a standard expectation of a system vendor. -

I'm not sure how this is obvious, as the electronic titles search is for titles which have electronic inventory.
If Titles without inventory are desired to be found, then the All Titles search is available for that. -

I think perhaps this is covered by an existing idea?

After three days, the system should send another reminder email to the reader who requested the book

I'm not sure I understand the request. What would Alma be advising the patron about, who has requested the book? It seems like a better workflow would be Alma reminding the person who has the item on loan of the need for return, rather than the requester who wants a recall, if that is the use case.

The current behaviour is to allow patrons to request items in work orders, and by the title this is already supported.
But from the text of the submission, it's really the opposite ask - to add a configuration option to configure specific work orders so that it's not possible to place a request when an item is in that particular work order. -

It's sounding like a defect regression to me, to report in a case.

The attachment shows a "How to get it" rather than a "View it".
The "How to get it" is present for showing access services such as placing a document delivery request when the resource is not held in any inventory form.
I'm not familiar with it displaying completely blank, as there should be a label such as "No available services for this item".
Perhaps check the relevant code for Getit table to see if the Description has been removed previously from UI by change to ?
Otherwise, perhaps useful to show a self-help option by GES such as linking to web content for placing requests or a contact page for library support services?
