Ability for staff to bulk change a patron's pickup branch
Staff would like to be able to bulk change a patron's pickup branch for selected (or all) holds on the patron's account. Be they holds already trapped, suspended or active. We often have patrons that move from one part of the area to another and need to change their holds to reflect their new pickup branch. Having to change one hold at a time is tedious.

Add a note when declaring an item lost on a customer account
When declaring an item lost on a customer account, there is no way to add more to the note on the resulting lost item charge. All that is in the note field is "Declared Lost". It is sometimes important to give more context to the charge and that is why being able to add a note would help!

Combine items and statistics on bib record
Please combine the items and the statistics on the bib record into one section so that we can see circ stats and item status without having to click multiple areas. We need this data to help us determine whether an item should be transferred from another branch, repaired, or replaced. Attached is how it looks in Staff Client, and it would be great if we could see this view in LEAP.

Leap - Receipt WYSIWYG editor
Currently, there is no way to adjust receipts. We only have the option of which fields and we are not allowed to put those fields in an order that suits our workflow. We would love to see Leap have a WYSIWYG editor so each library can configure font size, fields, etc. for each receipt.

Making Text in On-Order Records a Different Color
We have noticed an uptick in libraries circulating items on on-order records despite it violating consortia policy. We would like to see the text of on-order records (or even just specific fields) be in a different color to help provide a visual indicator of the record type.

Provide an option in Leap to save bibliographic records without making changes first
I don't know if this is already planned for a future version; I didn't see it on the current roadmap, though. It's really important for cataloguers that they be able to save a bib record without having to make a change first, particularly for provisional bib records. The only way to make a provisional record become final is to resave it, and currently, Leap requires you to make a change in any bib record before saving it. I know the duplicate detection without saving is now available, and that's a great feature - but allowing at least provisional bib records…

Need Supplier Templates drop-down at Bulk-Add to New PO screen
Supplier Templates are not available to choose from in the Bulk-Add to New PO screen. It would be helpful to have that drop-down menu available to us, like it is in the client app, and like it is for creating a New Purchase Order manually.

Control staff access to the Label Manager in Leap
Label printing can be a limited function in a large library system, using specialized printers to perform the task. Consistency is also important in the spine label. By being able to control access to this utility, it will ensure a better spine label product across a library system.

Increase customizability of check out receipts, to include graphic or image
We have locations that would like greater options for customizing checkout receipts. In particular, they would like to add an image at the bottom -- a library logo, or a graphic version of the library name, or a periodically changeable "word bubble" graphic promoting upcoming activities at the library.

Auto-Renew on Collection Level
We are removing overdue fines for our Children and Teen collections and wanted to enable auto-renew for the collection codes that are related to the Children and Teen collections, but realized auto-renew can only be enabled on an organizational level. It would be great if there was the ability to enable it on a collection level, especially for children's materials as, I'm sure we're all familiar, children are really bad at remembering to renew or return

Allow separate text alignment for labels with two parts
When working with an SL4 or any label type that has a spine and pocket label, allow for alignment to vary between the spine portion and pocket portion. This is important for how we label our picture books. We center align the first 3 letters (with linebreaks) of the author's name. Setting alignment to center also center aligns the pocket label. Attempting to manually adjust spacing by using spaces in left alignment is not ideal with letters like "I" not really being centered. See below:
Center alignment issue:
S
I

Allow for adding a file to a record set by UPC
Currently, the only option for importing a file with bibliographic data into a record set in Leap is by ISBN. It would be helpful for staff to have the option to be able to use UPC as well, as ISBN restricts this to just books and audiobooks. This leaves out DVDs and Blu-rays, as well as other non-book/audiobook material such as a Library of Things.

Allow searching by modification date
You should be able to search in the Find Tool by record modification date. So far I'm seeing this missing from Record Sets, Patron Accounts, etc.. This would make it easier to Find Records without having to resort to using SQL which makes it much more accessible to all staff.

Validate controlled thesauri (650 or 655 _7 $2)
Adding the $2 validation opens the door to using so many controlled thesauri, like Spanish headings via Queens and National Library of Spain, OLAC's video game headings, Homosaurus' headings, and many more that would make searching easier for customers and staff by providing access points that mimic how they talk about their interests and information needs.
It would be a step closer towards inclusion by using various existing vocabularies that institutions want to use, unlock more potential of the ILS, as well as improve authority maintenance overall.

Add a shortcut to print out patron barcode in Leap
When staff opens a patron's record, add a shortcut feature that allows them to print out patron barcodes. This will really help when someone comes in and don't have their library card with them, so wants to get their barcode information

View password option in login
It would be helpful to have a "view password" option in the login for library patrons/guests. I have gotten feedback from patrons who are visually impaired that having this feature would make logging in to their library account much easier, allowing them to identify typing errors before submitting their login information. The view password feature seems to be such a standard across wide array of platforms, pages, and applications. Why wouldn't a library be able to offer it?

Add support for Preferred Borrowers that applies to checkouts as well as holds
In larger consortia, it's very impractical to have granular patron codes per library or branch. Our resident patron codes are shared by all the libraries, but this creates some problems for certain materials that libraries can't reasonably share. The Preferred Borrower hold limit can help with this, but it puts the control of circulating restricted materials on the staff. If a Preferred Borrower setting could apply to checkout of certain materials the way holds can be limited with Preferred Borrower settings, staff would not have to struggle with overrides or demanding patrons from the next town over.

Change status of staff holds without check-in
In my staff duties, I am often putting a hold on an item that will be moved to in-repair for re-cataloging. Currently, I have to place a hold with my staff card and, when the item is held, I must check it in before I can change the status to in-repair. There are even more steps when the item is assigned to a different branch and wants to automatically transfer on check-in. Then I have to change the assigned branch as well.
When the item is held on a Staff account, it would be very helpful to be able to…14 votes -
Bibliographic Record Call Tag Search
When using the Search tool and searching a bibliographic record, it would be nice if the "Call Tag" column used the actual call tags my library creates and not the 082 field. This could be similar to the search for Item Record.

Put Leap Column Find Tool display settings in alphabetical order or make filterable
If you are adjusting the column settings for Leap, the list of available options is not in alphabetical order. This makes it easier to overlook what options might be available to select.
As a former page, please put this in alphabetical order OR make the list filterable/searchable.
