Leap: Keep cursor focus in barcode box after receipt print OR tie RFID to different shortcut
Currently, when checking in, if you have the barcode box selected, you can click Enter on the keyboard to RFID scan. But, when you have to print a receipt, even if you click Enter to just choose yes, the focus doesn't go back to the barcode box so you have to mouse back over.
This is a minor but constant annoyance. In the desktop staff client, F9 was the keyboard shortcut to trigger RFID scans, so it didn't matter what part of the app was in focus.

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.2 votes -
Add temporary shelf location to PAPI
BibHoldingsGet, SynchItemsByBibIDGet, and SynchItemByIDGet all return the shelf location of an item, but not the temporary shelf location.

Holds Un-Claimed Blocking Threshold
Blocking a patron from being able to place holds when holds unclaimed reaches a set limit/threshold within 6 months would be beneficial. There is a great deal of staff time and financial resources that gets wasted when items on hold shelves never get picked up and checked out. The block could auto-clear after a set time period.

LEAP: Supplier Record Reminder - Needed for Miscellaneous-Type Invoices
Miscellaneous invoices are created and used to pay for materials that are not linked to bib records. These invoices always need to have a Supplier record chosen for our finance purposes. Misc. invoices can be saved and payed without a supplier, however, Polaris always gave a reminder prompt if one is not chosen. In LEAP there is no reminder. We would like the same prompt to be added to LEAP. Making these invoices happens infrequently for some staff, so the reminder is helpful.

Leap: Prevent web browser from asking to update password when resetting patron password
We use Microsoft Edge for Leap, and use Edge's password manager to remember the Leap login password.
When staff open a patron record and reset a patron's password, the browser thinks we are resetting the password for Leap and asks if we want to update the Leap login password (see attached screenshot). Staff sometimes click "Update" on this prompt, not realizing that this is changing the stored login password for Leap. Staff are then unable to login to Leap the next day because the browser populates the Leap login page with the wrong password.
This popup should not be appearing…

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…

Leap: MARC Import profile should select default file
In the staff client, we can set a default file for a particular import profile. When that import profile is used, the file is already selected and we don't have to search for it. We'd like this same thing in Leap, but currently aren't able to set a default file and have to search for it every time.
Idea Value
This would prevent having to search for the exact same file every time when importing. It would save time, is more efficient, and already works well in the staff client.50 votes -
Mailed Notices and Long Overdue Items
We just were made aware that for patrons who are set up to receive mailed notices, that long overdue items are not automatically marked as Lost as other items are- they will only be marked as Lost and charged to the patron AFTER you run the Billing Notices. This is not something we were ever made aware of and only were told when we happened to notice a patron had items with a due date in 2024 on their account. This feels ridiculous and like an unnecessary step in an otherwise automated process. My library does not mail out billing…

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.

Import Reports in spreadsheet format
It would be very helpful to have an option to view Import Reports for both bibliographic and authority record imports as a spreadsheet, as well as the existing PDF.
This is mostly true for the records (and associated errors, warnings, and messages) themselves, rather than the more general import information (duplicate detection criteria, MARC validation rules, etc.). This would be helpful for quickly flagging errors, duplicates, and other areas that need attention without having to scroll through a lengthy report.

Add "Days Past First Available" to Item Bulk Change Options
The item hold setting option, "Days Past First Available," was added in Polaris 6.4. This hold setting is not currently included in item bulk change options and should be added in.
Idea Value
Libraries who want to begin using this feature cannot currently bulk change existing items to use this setting (or, if already using, change the existing value). All other item hold setting options can be bulk changed. For parity, the "days past first available" should be added as a bulk change option as well.30 votes -
Open potential duplicate bibs in Compare window
It would be helpful if the bib duplicate check popup had an option to open the records in a Compare window. Currently staff have to do a separate search for the potential duplicate records to be able to closely compare them and/or copy data from one to another, then redo the duplicate check to merge them.

Scan Driver's License for new card creation
Our Polaris Staff Client has the option to scan a patron's driver's license to autofill their registration information. It would be great for Polaris Leap to also have this feature.

Add items to record set from bib
It would be helpful if Leap had the client functionality allowing staff to add items to a record set from a bib record.

Bulk Check-in: add select from record set
When doing bulk check-in, rather than importing a file that has probably been exported from a record set, it would be much faster and easier to have the option to simply select an item record set and have the items it contains checked in.

Allow searching more than 10 remote databases at a time in Leap
There's no limit (that we've run into, anyway) in the desktop client to the number of z39.50 remote databases you can search at a time, but Leap has implemented a 10 database limit. If there needs to be a limit, can it be slightly higher at least?

Combined Notes and Dated Notes into one tab
Hi there,
When both Notes and Dated Notes are enabled, please just display them under one tab. It's tedious to have to check both tabs (notes for legacy notes, dated notes for new ones). It'd be better to be able to see all notes in one place.
Thanks!

Cap on Claims Returns by Material Type and Patron Code
Library's will benefit by being able to restrict patrons who reached specific number limit of a material type claim returns/never had from being able to borrow additional material type of the same type.
