LEAP POLI linking needed
POLI does not link to the supplier record. Bibliographic record does not link to POLI or invoice line item unlike in the Client.
Add functionality in LEAP to not only link from Bib to PO or Invoice but also link to line item.

ExpressCheck Language String Placeholder Breaks Item Information Display
When I adjust the language string with StringID ECTEXTBARCODE_PLACEHOLDER it is changed in two places, one of which is a surprise to me:
* The wording in the input field for the patron card number and
* The label for item information on the "Items Out" screen.
The latter needs to have a separate StringID to make the former work in any meaningful way.7 votes -
Compare bibs with an outside source - Leap
We would like the ability to compare bibliographic records in Leap with ones from an outside source, like z39.50. This is a key part of our cataloguing process and is a necessary piece to moving those staff members over to Leap.

Scheduled holds/checkouts
The ability to schedule holds or checkouts in advance would be a valuable feature for both libraries and patrons. Many libraries offer a variety of items beyond traditional books, such as computers, StoryWalk kits, activity kits, technology kits, and other specialty collections, that patrons may need to access on a specific date or for a particular event.
Allowing patrons or staff to schedule a hold or checkout for a designated day would help ensure that high-demand or event-based materials are available exactly when needed. For example, educators, community organizations, and families often plan programs, classroom activities, or events well in…

Consistent Collection Name Display in Cataloging and Acquisitions Modules
We would like to submit an enhancement request regarding the display of collection names in the system.
Currently, the Cataloging module displays the collection name together with its abbreviation, while the Acquisitions module only shows the first part of the collection name in the dropdown list. This difference in display may cause confusion for staff when selecting or identifying the correct collection.
We would like to propose an enhancement so that the collection name display is consistent across both modules, ideally showing the full collection name together with its abbreviation, similar to the display in the Cataloging module.
This improvement…

Allow staff to select sounds
Allowing staff to select different sounds when checking items in and out would be a great benefit. For example, when checking an item in and there is a hold, a different sound would help alert the staff, or when a patron's library card is scanned for checkout, a custom-selected warning sound would play. At busy times, it is easy to just go with flow because all the sounds are the same.

Polaris 8.1 - Return to where you were in your record set list after closing an item record from the record set
When I am working in a long record set and open an item record and then close it again, it returns me to the top of the record set. I would really like it to return me to where I was in the list to more easily continue my work.

Separate Almost Overdue & Autorenew notice strings
We recently did an overhaul of our messaging in the notice strings to make things clearer for patrons, and we had issues with clear messaging for Almost Overdue and Autorenew notices, since there are sometimes two separate options for Almost Overdue and Autorenew notice strings, but not always. This only allows us to partially customize them separately, when we would like fully separate options. As a result, for certain strings, we are forced to be more vague, which is not ideal.
Please offer separate options for the email subject line and the email 'other header' strings, as well as the…

Additional features for Saved Title Lists
Our patrons would like the ability to filter their Saved Title Lists by "available now" and "owning library", similar to search results in the catalog. This would enable them to walk into any library, look at their reading list, and see what is on the shelf now at a glance. Checking each title for availability and branch is tedious and time consuming.

Our libraries would like the option to "lock" the multiple holds in a group
Our libraries have mentioned that when staff places multiple holds on different formats of a title and then groups these holds for a patron, the loveliest conscientious patrons will go in and delete the additional holds, thus defeating the staff's intention, which was to create multiple grouped holds in order to expedite the filling of the hold. It would be helpful if there was an option to prevent removing holds when they're in a group.

Leap - display control numbers in list of current and recent workforms
Right now, the only thing that displays in the list of workforms is the title. When comparing records with the exact same title, this can get confusing and requires too many clicks to make sure you are selecting the correct record. There needs to be more information displayed in addition to the title, and should at minimum have a control number.

Label Manager Subfields
Please update Label Manager to restrict the Content option of Author from including subfields 0 and 1 when printing. These are relatively new fields for linked data. We would like to retain the data without have to manually deleting it in Label Manager to print pocket labels. They are valid in MARC21 and should be retained to future-proof our records for if and when Polaris makes use of linked data.

POLI ISBN search via remote databases in LEAP
When manually entering POs and POLIs in Leap, I want to be able to do an ISBN search via remote databases to pull in an on-order MARC as I do in the client.

Easily print multiple of the same spine lable in Leap
When printing spine labels from an item record in the client, you can choose to print multiple of that same label. I would like to have that functionality in Leap. This will be helpful when processing multiple of the same item without having to send the label request for each individual item.

Customize Copy funtion in Leap
Add the ability to customize what fields are "copied" when clicking on the Copy button in a patron record. Or as an alternative, create custom patron templates that can be selected both when copying a record and creating a new record.
For Example: Our Staff use the Copy function most often with registering multiple members in the same family. Rarely is the information in the Profile View the same (Name, Patron Code, Birth Date, etc.) and if staff aren't careful they could forget to change these fields - fields that are reflected in the various system tables.

Last Circ Date in Item Record that is currently checked out
The Circ Date in the item record workform (Circulation tab) is confusing. When an item is currently checked out, the circ date shows the date of the current checkout rather than the previous patron’s checkout date. This is confusing because it appears under “Last Use,” alongside the last borrower and branch information (see attached photo). It would be clearer if this field were labeled more explicitly or moved to a different area, perhaps below the Current Borrower (see attached mock-up).

Service Name Logging in PatronValidate API
This proposal outlines an extension to the Patron Validation API to include an optional serviceName parameter. When provided, this value will be recorded in the Integrated Library System (ILS) transaction log, allowing us to track which service initiates each patron validation request.
Currently, the ILS transaction log records patron validations without capturing which service initiated the request. This lack of context makes it difficult to analyze traffic from third-party services (e.g., OverDrive, Hoopla) or internal applications, troubleshoot validation spikes, and make informed decisions about service contracts and resource allocation.
The proposed solution is to modify the Patron Validation API to…

Send record sets to Label Manager in Leap
The desktop client has the ability to send a record set to Label Manager; Leap does not. Without this feature, mass relabelling projects such as adding a new section are an enormous drain on staff time.
