Holds that can't be filled
We would like it to be a bit more obvious if a hold is not going to be filled due to a lack of items that can fill the hold (Satisfied By tab is empty). If there could be a color change or icon visible in the patron's list of holds and/or the hold request, that would be ideal.

Automatically update item record details
Reposting for additional clarity:
I would like there to be Automatic updates for item record details, such as Display in PAC and Holdable, based on if certain data changes over time, such as collection, material type, and item status. Like the function we already have for turning on/off the Display in PAC of bib records. For example, I want to have the system automatically manage whether an item is holdable or display in PAC etc. based on if the status changes to Lost, Withdrawn etc.2 votes -
Patron block pop up
During the check-out process in Leap, please have the blocking pop up window appear when the patron's account is pulled up. Currently, the pop up for blocks does not appear until the first item is scanned for check out. If a patron does have blocks the work BLOCKS in red, but there need to be more of a visual block like there is in the Staff Client.

Vendor integration
Add the eCommerce vendor BS&A. Many local governments are moving to this vendor for on-line payment options. Since many public libraries have to use what their city uses we are finding that more libraries are asking about BS&A.

Automatic processing for item record details

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.

Totals Including All Subfunds
I need to see the 'Totals including all subfunds' of a fund in LEAP.
I can see the 'Totals for this Fund' amount under Balance in Leap, but there's no data for 'Totals including all subfunds.',which is available in Polaris Client, fund explore feature(the bottom part of the General tab in the right pane) .4 votes -
Update Circulation Status when an Item record is Deleted
When staff delete an Item record, the Circulation Status remains as it is. This is confusing staff thinking an item is available e.g. the Circ status is IN, while the Record is DELETED.
We are asking for a feature where when an item is Deleted, that the Circ Status change to UNAVAILBLE.4 votes -

Find Tool: ability to filter collections dropdown based on library logged in
We are a large consortium in which each library has their own list of Collections they use. Throughout most of Leap, they can see their own library's list of collections and choose appropriately. But within the Find Tool, when they go to filter and add the Condition for "Collection", it shows the entire list of collections for our consortium. It would be great if this aspect of Leap could also limit the options to just their library's list. As we have a lot of part-time staff who have not memorized their collections list and end up choosing the wrong ones…

printing Bibliographic Brief in LEAP
Regarding the printing of brief bib records: in the Polaris Client, we typically go to the 'Print' menu within the bibliographic record workform and select 'Bibliographic Brief'. We haven't been able to find an equivalent option or workflow to print these brief bib records in Leap.
We need this to print brief bib record PDFs of items we have deleted that have no existing copies so we can delete them from OCLC holdings later.1 vote -
Renewal updates to date of registration for cloned patron accounts
It would be great if when staff clone a patron account (typically when families are registering together) the renewal date for the account does not also copy over.
If staff do not catch this and modify the renewal date accordingly, we can (and do) end up with patrons who expire mere months after registration--creating a great deal of confusion among the patron base.

Lifetime circ # in a bib record should include all previous item circ attached to that bib, whether the item has been deleted or not
I've seen a request to include item and bib circ together on the bib record, and that would be great. However, a major problem for us is not keeping historical circulation info in a bib record. Right now, Polaris does not keep circulation stats from deleted item records in the total lifetime circ, which means we have lost circulation from deleted item records and the total number is just the circ from current active item records, not a true lifetime count. We need the lifetime circulation number of a bib record to include all the circulation attached to that bib…

Limiting an item to your library and patrons
The options to limit whether an item stays at a specific library location and is accessible to patrons from specific libraries needs to be updated to allow us to put the time limit for all these options. Currently, you can only put a limit for "Patrons from this library and branches" for however many days you'd like that to be active for and it will count down (which this should be an actual count down that will unselect after the amount of days has been fulfilled). It would be nice to be able to set a similar countdown for the…

Allow a popup note for certain material types on self-checkout machines
For certain material types, it would be helpful to have a note pop up at self-check machines to make patrons aware of the condition of certain items. An example would be a notice like: "Some items are locked. Please see a staff member to unlock." It would still let them check it out, so it'd be different from a block.

Improve MARC Import user experience
The LEAP MARC Import tool requires extra clicks and scrolling back and forth every time you use the import process. My team uses this process many times a day, so the extra clicks add up quite a bit, even to causing ergonomics issues. Updates to reduce the amount of clicking could cut the time spent on setting up import processes by almost half.
You have to click "Select File," and then get a popup where you have to click a second "Select File" button. You should only have to do this once.
Generally you are working top to bottom down…

Linking pre-coordinated authority records
Currently if you have pre-coordinated authority records that are not established editorially, the individual SH will be imported but will not link to the appropriate bib record without changing the pre-coordinated SH to the base-phrase.
Example, if I have the SH 650 _0 southwestern flycatcher $x conservation and want to link southwestern flycatcher to the $a and have the appropriate SH the system will prompt me to change the SH in the bib from 650 _0 southwestern flycatcher $x conservation to 650 _0 southwestern flycatcher. Likewise, if I try to link the free-floating pattern heading $x conservation I will be…4 votes -
Adding the CTRL+R screen to LEAP
Could we please add the Client CRTL+R screen that opens from a Bibliographic Record to LEAP? This is the screen that provides the circ YTD, previous YTD, Lifetime Circ, as well as in-house data, broken down by location. This is very helpful to our collection development team and allows for information when weeding or reordering. There is a similar screen, but it doesn't have as much information in LEAP. This is the largest holdup on our team members not wanting to transition to LEAP. Though, the new breakdown by renewals is helpful and we like this change, we would like…

Maintain date-ordered holds queue when transferring holds from one bib to another
When transferring holds to one bib from another, Polaris does not maintain the date order of the holds queue, even though the original request date stays with the transferred hold. Instead, staff have to manually move holds up and down. This is a huge waste of time. We'd like for holds transfers to maintain their place in the queue when transferred, which can be accomplished by simply ordering the queue by date as part of the transfer process. This is a daily occurrence for us.

Display processing pop-up
When items using a shelf location with display processing enabled are checked in (normally or via in-house), could a pop-up be displayed to ask staff whether the item should still be on display instead of the shelf location being immediately updated?
