Agreed, this would make our job way more effiicient.
We, (through our local Alma administrator), put in a work ticket to make that option functional. Well, ExLibris took several months on the attempt, then much later said was ready to use. After testing, it only functioned on maybe half the requests. And just cancelled sans notices on the unsuccessfull ones. We gave up on trying to force it, via exLibris, and reverted to the method you mentioned. i.e., Making the resource sharing request manually, then cancelling it off the pick-from-shelf listing, then toggling to "missing" status in the item search function. But it would be great if we got a more positive result out of it this time.
