Make the INN-Reach Polaris pickup slip editable
For our INN-Reach system, the most important information on the INN-Reach pickup slip is the destination (courier) code, which is buried in small letters near the bottom of the slip. Make the slip editable, so each system can prioritize information that is important for processing. For example, we would like to place the courier code at the top of the slip in large, bold type.

Allow Different Email Times for Different Branches
It would be nice to have the ability to set different email notice schedules for each branch.
We would like to line up our notice delivery times with the operating hours of our branches, or allow more frequent hold notice emails at a specific branch.14 votesIn accordance with the Idea Graduation Workflow guidelines agreed upon by Innovative and IUG, this idea has been closed because it was submitted more than two years ago and has not been selected for inclusion in the product.

Permit cancellation on "held" items - staff only
In the 7.5 update, which introduces the ability to cancel items in "shipped" and "held" statuses, I suggest extending this cancellation privilege to staff members exclusively. When patrons cancel items that are on hold, those items are often already on the hold shelf, and the system's only notification to staff is by adding the item to the cancelled hold list.
By allowing only staff to cancel holds, they could promptly remove the item from the shelf and cancel it directly, eliminating the need for setting an expiration date or other measures to force its expiration.

Diplay patron charges on printed checkout receipt
Currently, a patron's current charges (for fines, etc.) can be listed on their emailed checkout receipts, but not on their printed checkout receipts. It would be very useful for patrons if the printed checkout receipts could also include this information.

ILL Requests to OCLC in the PAC should duplicate check correctly
Currently, when a patron is placing a request for ILL via OCLC in the Polaris PAC, Polaris offers a "local item" to hold if the item is in the local Polaris database. Unfortunately, I have just learned from my Site Manager it is only checking title/author to suggest a match, not format. We have seen the PAC suggest a "local item" for different format (DVD when a Blu-Ray is requested; regular print when a large print is requested) in addition to different item entirely (a remake of a movie when the original is requested; a tv adaptation when a feature…

authorized user
It would be nice if Authorized User (custom field under Attribute on patron registration) can be added to the header in Leap so staff do not have to open up(click) the patron registration to see it.
We would like for this field to be visible when staff opens the check out screen for a patron without having to open their registration screen.

Customize text in Item History
We would like the ability to modify the description of the Item Record History Actions when it comes to renewals. Currently, when a renewal happens in the app, it lists it as "Renewal - third party software" which confused our library staff. We were told that is the wording for anything renewed via the Polaris API, but since (for now) the only thing we have renewing that way is the app, we'd like to change the wording to say "Renewal - Mobile App" so it's clearer for staff. Since not every library would want that same change, we'd like the…

Include Shelf Location in responsive view of Item Record Sets in Leap
When an item record set is viewed on a tablet or mobile device in Leap, the record set layout changes to accommodate the change in screen size. This includes the Shelf Location column no longer displaying. Staff create item record sets for displays and when they go out into the stacks with Leap on a tablet to pull the items, not having the Shelf Location included slows them down as they have to open the item records individually.

Include Fulfilled Holds in the Holds History for a Bib Record
I would like to see a history of all holds on a bib record kept with the date of activation, not just those that were cancelled. I use this information to adjust how many copies of popular authors to pre-buy by looking at how many holds were placed on an author's previous released title(s) prior to release date.

Add a feature for "weeding" inactive patrons similar to the new weeding workflow in 7.5
It would be great if staff could create a record set of patrons to delete and a supervisor could review them before deletion, similar to how item records can be reviewed in a record set by a supervisor before deletion.

Add more info to Waiver Request in Fines & Fees in Patron account in PAC
We think it would be helpful for patrons to see Waiver Requests as "Submitted" or "Pending", "Approved", and "Denied" for better understanding. See screenshot which illustrates the lack of that detail now.

Material loan limit by pickup branch
We have a Bookmobile service that is setup as it's own branch as well as a holds pickup location. With the limited capacity of this "pickup location", we are trying to restrict the material type loan limit block by location instead of by branch association.
It would help to have some sort of Policy Table that does Material Type Loan Limit by Branch Pickup Location.

This would filter out items that cannot be picked up on the Bookmobile Branch to stop patrons from placing the hold and avoiding staff to have to manually cancel the hold and follow…4 votesIn accordance with the Idea Graduation Workflow guidelines agreed upon by Innovative and IUG, this idea has been closed because it was submitted more than two years ago and has not been selected for inclusion in the product.

Allow Floating's Load Balancing option to be set at the Library-Level
Currently, Floating's Load Balancing option can only be enabled at the System-Level in Polaris. I am on a shared Polaris server where one library system wants Load Balancing and one library system does not want it. This leaves us with not turning the feature on. It would be nice to allow Floating's Load Balancing option to be set at the Library-Level.

Turning off Item Renewal at the Patron level
I would like to be able to adjust auto-renewals at a Patron level in addition to the item level. This would help some of our patron's who may have difficulty understanding how renewals work. This may seem silly, but we have had some cognitively impaired patrons become severely confused and upset when they think they are "wasting renewal's". Being able to adjust these settings individually at the patron record portion would be extremely helpful. Excluding them from the auto-renewal notice is a band-aid, but this causes other confusing issues with the patrons as a result.

Limit loans on new items from a branch
