Polaris 7.8 - Bib Record Links in LEAP
When dealing with missing/damaged/canceled orders, we start at the Bib record and link over to the attached POs/Invoices. Right now in LEAP we have to start with the PO or Invoice, which we often don't know when we have the book in hand. I'd like to be able to link from the Bib Record to either Purchase Orders or Invoices or both.

Polaris 7.8 - Improve Receipt Printing from Leap
Currently printing receipts from the Leap web app is unideal, requiring either significant manual intervention from the user or extensive browser tweaks to get it operable. A background desktop client (similar to JSPrintManager) could handle the printing far better than the browser does natively.

Polaris 7.7- Expresscheck- Different Barcode Scanning Sounds
Many of our patrons are on autopilot when checking out their materials at our expresschecks. There are times patrons while scanning, accidentally scan the wrong barcode (isbn barcode) rather than our libraries' created barcodes for checkout. Staff in our library system have requested there be a way to differentiate barcode scanning sounds of a normal checkout beep to some sort of indicator/sound letting the patron know something is wrong in the checkout process.

Polaris 7.8 - Log out of Leap without being prompted to log out of Microsoft.
When staff log out of Leap at the end of their shift, Microsoft prompts them to sign out of their Microsoft account. I think it confuses staff, they click on the prompt and then they get logged out of their Microsoft account. They then have to log back in and due to MFA need to get a code to log back in. This isn't ideal.
Customer support said currently this behavior is how Leap with OAuth/SSO works. Leap uses the identity provider to control the login and logout when setup with OAuth/SSO. Can you place an enhancement request to see…13 votesThis functionality was added in 7.8 during development to fix a bug report. There is also a 7.7 patch available!

Polaris 7.7 - View recent search history in Leap find tool
It would be great to have an option to go back and view recent search history or search results in the find tool in Leap. I often close out of a search too soon and realize I need to go back for more information, or realize that I actually had the results I needed two searches ago.
Being able to quickly view recent search results rather than constructing the whole search again would save a lot of time.82 votes -
Polaris 7.7 - Make LEAP More VPAT Accessible!
Making LEAP more accessible and usable for everyone is key to system-wide adoption. I know LEAP can be finicky when display and text scaling and zoom levels are beyond 100%. But improving support for larger text would be a game-changer for many! I have a couple suggestions that I think could make a big difference:
Support zoom and text resize beyond 100% throughout LEAP, especially with the Find Tool, so users with vision needs can actually read the text. This small enhancement would be huge!
Perform a VPAT and implement recommendations. This will uncover ways to improve overall accessibility per…

Polaris 7.7 - shelf-location output option, simplyreports
We currently run our lost and not paid reports under Patron Account > Patron Account List Reports in SimplyReports. Because shelf-location is not an output option, we manually enter it for each item in order for our shelvers to more easily complete shelf-checks. Can "shelf-location" be added as a report output option?

Polaris 7.6 - Exclude deleted record sets from SimplyReports
When you are using the general filters in SimplyReports, the record set list includes record sets that have been deleted. I'd like to either have the deleted record sets excluded or have a check box that allows you to exclude them.

Polaris 7.7/7.8 - Duplicate detection as separate action for bibs and authorities in Leap
In the client, duplicate detection for MARC records is triggered by (re)saving the record, but can also be triggered separately as an action under the Tools menu. In Leap, resaving the record is the only way to trigger the function. This means cataloguers have to do a fake edit in order to un-grey-out the save button and click past any other functions, such as MARC validation, before they can get to the matching record(s).
Having duplicate detection as a separate function (maybe under Actions or as a button in the MARC view) would save cataloguers time and extra clicking.

Polaris 7.6 - Add ISBN to columns in Leap find tool for bibliographic and item record searches
Our Collection Development librarians would like to be able to quickly look down the list of bibliographic and item search results and see ISBNs. Right now, this is not available as a column so they have to click on each record and open it to see the ISBN.
If there are multiple ISBNs in a record, the find tool could just display the first one.
This would save our Collection Development staff a lot of time in their searches.35 votes -
Polaris 7.6 - Printing workslips in Leap
Please add the ability to print workslips for purchase order line items in Leap. Right now they can only be printed in Polaris client. Our Acquisitions staff would love to be able to do everything in Leap, rather than having to switch back to the client to print workslips.

Polaris 7.7 - Accessibility Shortcuts in Leap
Many of the keyboard shortcuts that are in the Polaris client are not found in Leap. This is harder for people with difficulties switching between the keyboard and mouse. We have a user who would love to have access to these keyboard shortcuts in leap that, if turned on or added, would make Leap linking much more intuitive and ergonomic.
The staff member said:
- Ctrl-S would be fantastic
- A shortcut to simply close a record, as exists in the form of Alt-F4 in Polaris.
Those are the big ones.
Any others that can be turned on or created specifically for…

Polaris 7.7 - Improve selecting and record set functionality in Leap
In the same way that you can bulk select multiple non-sequential emails in web email services and right click to take action, Leap should allow users more flexibility to bulk select records to be added to a record set. This is something that is useful in the windows staff client and should be available in the web Leap interface. Also, please add a Load All option at the top of Leap retrieval/record sets to take place of the karate chop, instead of having to scroll to the bottom of the results to access the Load More button.

Polaris 7.5 - Multiple pickup location options for a single branch
Support for patrons to designate a pickup area or a location within the library where the patron would like to retrieve their holds (e.g., curbside, smart locker, drive thru). Current workflows require creating a new branch for tracking additional pickup locations.

Polaris 7.8 - Duplicate detection action on PO in LEAP
At the demonstration of Leap at IUG, we learned that PO line item duplicate check action is not available in Leap from the PO workform. We need to be alerted to existing items in our systems if we own them, to attach add copy orders to existing bibs. Please add this functionality.

Polaris 7.7 - Provide a Load All option for record sets in Leap
I cannot think of a situation where, if I have a record set containing more than 250 items, it would be okay to proceed with doing things in that record set without loading in all of the items. It is typical to need to take a similar action on all items in large record sets but very challenging due to the 250 at a time limit. I just had to scroll and click more 27 times before I could embark on a bulk change. There should be a load all button.

Polaris 7.7 - Enter tax and discounts on invoices as an amount rather than a percentage in LEAP
In the Polaris client, we have the ability to enter taxes and discounts on invoices as a dollar amount. In Leap there is no way to do this and taxes and discounts can only be entered as a percentage. Many of our vendors list taxes and discounts as a dollar amount on the invoice, it would be much simpler to be able to enter in those numbers directly rather than trying to calculate the correct percentage. Our Acquisitions staff have been entering and paying invoices in Polaris client rather than in Leap solely for this reason.
This would save our…
