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.

Alphabetically sort subject heading tags
Allow the 650 & 655 tags to be sorted alphabetically. When bringing in older MARC records there can be masses of duplicated headings. The ability to sort them alphabetically would make deleting them much easier.

Add support for direct print (QZ tray) to leap offline
Add support for Leap direct print using QZ tray to Leap offline. That way libraries don't have to figure out something special when they are in offline mode which is already a stressful time period for them.

Add the ability to round all prices to nearest nickel
With the production of pennies ending, we've had some discussion around prices in Polaris. Ideally, we would like to see some method of optionally having all prices (item prices and fines) rounded to the nearest nickel. We haven't run into any problems yet, but as pennies eventually become more scarce, we suspect that we'll have trouble with cash payments.

LEAP: Change status from checkout to Lost or Damage in an item's record
A patron doesn't have their library card number on hand, can there be a way to change the circ status to lost from the item record so the replacement cost can be automatically be charged to the current patron's record? At least from the owning library's side, I understand messing with anything in the 'Details' tab shouldn't be done by another library. Hopefully, it can be done with less hoops to jump through by going through the item history and making sure to select the correct patron or hitting any of the other tabs.

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 a "here today" button in Leap.
Provide staff with a single click option in Leap to find titles on shelf at the location they are currently logged in under. Many staff default to using the PAC for its Available Now option - which is great but, is problematic if a customer doesn't have their card and/or doesn't know their password. While we can emulate the Available now search in Leap thru filters or saved search parameters, even accessing those saved searches can take several clicks. Offering an available or here now button would make this much faster and would be used very often

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

Automatically associate accounts when creating a new patron account with the Copy feature
I think it would be helpful to automatically create an association between accounts when creating a new account by copying an existing one, e.g., using a parent's account to create a child's account. The Block and Allow options should still be checked manually, though.
The association could be removed after account creation, if necessary.15 votes -
Report for staff user or workstation transactions
We could use a report based on staff user and/or workstation listing all transactions made for a given date range. Most importantly for us, cataloging information which could provide date and time of bib records being created and/or modified as well as circulation information for staff who work the circ desk.

PII Management Options
Although there are current options for purging patron IDs from circ transactions, and deleting account transactions, there are some gaps with removing PII (personally identifiable information) we'd like to see addressed.
We'd like the option to purge patron IDs from non-circ transactions (incl. patron account history and record history). We'd also like the option to manage patron details on any other tables where history may be maintained after a patron record is deleted (e.g. Notification History, DeletedPatrons, DeletedPatronAccounts, kwmssg, and offline and InnReach process tables). It would also be ideal to have a plan for removing any CNV tables (from…

Add Items to a Record set from Patron's Hold List
Cataloging staff use staff cards to request items in for call number changes or various projects. It would be helpful for them to be able to add those items into a Record Set for bulk changes directly from the patron record Hold list, in lieu of individually from the item records.

"Today" on Date Picker
When using the date picker, we'd love an option to select "Today" and have it set the date automatically for us. When updating really old cards, it can be a pain to have to select a date with the picker when we have to change every field. Typing is limited in its ability to be a workaround, because it requires specific formatting in order to work.

Include perioidical issue information in overdue notices
We had a patron complaint that the email notices do not include magazine issue information, only the main title. The notices also do not include item barcodes, so there isn't any data to match against a specific issue. Could information from the Issue field in the item record be displayed in overdue notices?

Auto suggest volumes while adding items to a bib record
When creating a new item record on a bib, it would be wonderful if while typing in the volume field, Leap automatically suggested volumes from other items attached to that particular bib. This would help ensure standardization of how the volume is entered on each item record (eg. V.1 vs V. 1 vs. V.01) while also allowing the libraries to add a new volume number for volumes 2, 3, etc. since it would suggest while typing rather than changing the volume field to be a drop down menu of pre-defined options.

Add granularity to One-Click Request feature
We recently had a location close for a few weeks for a construction project. During that time, we turned it off as a holds pickup option in the PAC. However, patrons who were logged into their accounts and had that location as their default holds pickup location could still place holds for pickup at that location using One-Click. The only way to completely stop patrons placing holds for pickup at our closed location was to disable One-Click completely. This annoyed patrons at our locations that remained open, who saw a popular feature of the PAC disappear without warning for seemingly…
