Show Cover Images in Search Results of Leap
Library staff would like to see cover images in the search results of the Find tool of Leap when they are looking to place holds for a patron. They can see the cover image if they go into the bib record, but not in the search results page (which is just a list).

Option to reorder tabs in Patron Record view
Polaris continues to add more tab options in Leap patron records (most recently for the Dated Notes), but the newest features frequently end up getting hidden in the More menu.
It would be really nice if each staff member had the ability to reorder the tabs in their patron record view, so they can ensure their most used tabs remain visible even if they are zoomed in or using a smaller screen.
For instance, many of our libraries do not use the Reader Services tab. For those libraries, it would be wonderful to have the option to move the Reader…

Pick list prioritization based on floating load limits
Enable the pick list to prioritize filling holds in floating collections from branches where the number of items on the shelf at that location is the highest and/or over the load limit for that collection.

Allow staff to add supplier records without allowing them to modify the Postal Codes table
When staff add Supplier records, they currently are required to have the "Modify Postal Address Fields" permission. This means that they can add any postal code/city combination into the address and, if it is not already in the Postal Codes table, it will automatically be added there. This allows staff to add incorrect data into the Postal Codes table, which then allows circulation staff to accidentally select those options when adding new patron accounts. We would like to see Supplier records have the same option as Patron records, where we can lock staff down so that they can only select…

Automatic processing for item record details
I would like there to be Automatic processing for item record details, such as Display in PAC and Holdability, based on data such as collection, material type, and item status. Similar to the function we already have to turn on/off the Display in PAC of bib records.

Ability to Reorder Check-In Screen Columns
Allow users to reorder the columns on the check-in screen to fit their needs. Some staff members like to have the Shelf Location and Collection closer to the actual name of the item. It would be wonderful if each staff member could reorganize it to fit their needs in the moment.

Improve Toast management
Toast messages can sometimes be difficult to catch if they fade too quickly or can get in the way if they accumulate on the screen. It would help if the toast appeared, then was reduced to a smaller indicator that could be cleared. Aso allow staff to open the history of toasts for their current session, so they can refind a message once they have finished what they were doing.

Have patron emails say clearly if an item was not autorenewed
Patrons are confused by items that don't autorenew. The receipt lists the items out, the due dates, and the "potential" renewals. But if an item doesn't autorenew the patron doesn't realize it. It's causing patrons to accrue fines because they assume their items have autorenewed. It would be lovely if the email could list items that were autorenewed, items that were NOT autorenewed, then other items checked out.

Bulk update patron alert notes
We would like the patron alert note field added as a bulk change option. A use case would be adding the same note to all accounts with a given patron code (for example, adding a note to computer use only cards reminding staff not to check items out to them).

Allow Patron Merge Directly From Duplicate Patron Records Pop-Up
Currently, Leap will surface any potential duplicate accounts when you go to save a patron record based on the configured criteria. Unfortunately, it's not particularly actionable and, while it is nice that you can click the other account names to pull up the full record, it requires a lot of back and forth to confirm information on one account or another before performing an independent Merge action... which is to say that most staff aren't likely to perform an account merge in the moment and probably won't come back to it later... I think this could be remedied by allowing…

Leap: Ability to save column sorting
In the desktop client, we had searches sorted by Pub Date then Author. We can sort them in the Find Tool, but clicking the star to save as default settings does not save the sorting preferences for next time.

Search Timeout setting for Leap Find Tool
Currently, the Find Tool in the client allows us to adjust the search timeout period. We would also like to be able to adjust this setting when searching in Leap.
For example, recently I wanted to put together a record set of items with subject heading "bicycles" (about 500 titles in total). This search took about 45 seconds to run in the Find tool, so I was not able to make the record set in Leap - I had to run the query in the client. As we move towards using Leap exclusively, this is a gap that would need…

Preview for MARC Import
There should be a preview or staging phase when importing new MARC records where you can see what duplicates are detected, and what action will be taken based on the profile selected, and have the option to manually override the actions on each record (e.g. don't replace this specific one - just create a second record instead)

Separate held item periods for items with additional holds vs. no holds
We would like the ability to set one number of days for an item to remain held if other holds are attached to the same bib record and a second setting to set a number of days for an item to remain held if no holds are attached. This would allow high-demand items with waiting lists to move more quickly through patrons, while at the same time keep low-demand items on hold shelves for longer, increasing the rate at which they get picked up and borrowed.
Right now, we hold items for 7 days. For a popular title, that adds…

Picklist Pending Not Found Option
Enhancement Request: Add the ability to mark a Picklist Pending item as “Not Found” while keeping the item in a pending status.
Current Challenge:
When staff are unable to locate an item on the Picklist Pending report, there is no way to indicate that a search was completed and the item was not found. As a result, staff cannot easily communicate to follow-up staff that the item requires a second search.While the Ask Later feature exists, it is not an effective solution for this scenario because it removes the item from the local Picklist Pending list and places it…

Preview Bib for SHR and Hold creation
It would be useful if Leap had an equivalent for the following client functionality:
Right click on bib search results to see a preview of the record. This is a time-saver when creating new serial holdings records and when placing holds in cases where titles may be similar.15 votes -
Merge patron function should also create a new Dated Note
When merging patron records, the system currently appends merge details to the Non-Blocking Notes section. However, with the introduction of Dated Notes and the ability to hide Non-Blocking Notes, this information can be lost depending on system settings.
We would like to see one of the following options implemented:Allow administrators to choose where the system writes merge notes.
Have the system automatically write merge notes to both note types (Non-Blocking and Dated Notes).

Bulk Change Serials Issue Records Status
Offer the ability to bulk update Serials issue records to a new status. We order multiple copies of most serials, and currently we have to open each issue to change it from "Claimed" or "Pending Claim" to "Not Available" when the vendor cannot supply it.

Let patrons see cancelled holds
A patron said that it would be useful if they could see, as a logged-in patron, holds that had been cancelled due to them not coming to pick them up in time. It would be great if this also allowed patrons to reactivate the hold from there. Thank you for considering this.

Exclude from Bulk Add to PO report warning on other libraries 970s if setting to Filter branches in line-item is on
To prevent 970s for other libraries in the consortia from being added to the PO, we turned on the Filter branches in line-item segments setting in admin. However, when we Bulk Add record set to PO, the report shows in yellow even if the 970s for the other libraries is the only "issue" and our libraries still have to go through the report even though they don't need to do anything about it in case there is another issue like duplicates or missing fields etc. that they need to do something about. For popular titles this happens often since multiple…
