Include patron preferences such as billing notifications in PAPI patron update/create
The Jacksonville Public Library leverages the Polaris API to manage student records. Currently we have to take an extra step in the LEAP UI to set the communication preferences. We don't bill students or send their accounts to collections, so we have to do a bulk update of all the records with the UI after already touching every record with the API. This is cumbersome because there are over 100,000 student records that need to be updated. Most updates are smaller, but at the start of the school year we do a full refresh.
We would like to be able to update patron billing preferences at the time we connect to the API to update/create the record. Ideally, these feilds would be exposed so we can simply update them in the API POST/PATCH were we edit/create the records (https://documentation.iii.com/polaris/PAPI/current/PAPIService/PAPIServicePatronRegistrationUpdate_v2.htm).
We hope this can be accomplished! Thank you!
