Login indicator
We have implemented SDA Context User functionality so staff will open Sierra using shared library login and then add their own login (permissions). We would hope better indicator (e.g. color) so it would be easier to notice if personal login/permissions is added or not (or if someone has forgotten to remove their personal login/permissions). At this time when you open Sierra using the library login you can see "Sierra" and "local system name" on the upper left corner (in our case Sierra Helmet). When you add personal login your name (user account full name) will display too (in our case…

Add "last status update" to low & high circulation weeding report results
A "last status update" column in the low & high circulation weeding report results would help identify items for weeding or stock rotation.
Why would this field help us weed or identify items for stock rotation?
This item field identifies the last date an item changed their status. Many libraries change an item's status to "in transit" when they move an item from one branch to another. To that end, this field could help identify items that have either newly been received to a branch, or have sat on the shelf for some time.Items moving around systems with stock…

New function to scan items into Sierra to change an Item status to "in transit"
Our branches select which items should be sent to another library for stock rotation. Before items are sent to another branch, staff change the item statuses to "in transit". For various reasons, the branch staff cannot use Mobile Worklist to batch change these items to "in transit". The staff use Circa, but would prefer a Sierra integrated solution.
Why integrate this solution in Sierra:
Circa is aging out. We cannot limit Circa permissions to only change Item status to "in transit".
We want to use the "item status update date" to track when items last moved to a branch.
We…

Customise Encore 'Did you mean' offerings to prevent offensive suggestions
We've had a couple of instances where the Encore 'Did you mean?' suggestions have offered up inappropriate alternatives to the search that was performed.
The first example was that it suggested 'sex manuals' when a search for 'car manuals' was performed.
The second example was that it suggested 'American poets' when a search for 'African poets' was performed, to which our client took offense at.
We would like to see some functionality added to Encore that would allow us to customise what suggestions display and what do not display for the 'did you mean' algorithm. This would allow us to…

homebound rating
Part of the homebound module is to add ratings to checked in items for the patron.
The rating data for the Homebound module is not kept in the Sierra SQL database, but rather in a separate log which is used to create the Homebound Patron Report so it cannot be accessed through Sierra Direct SQL Access. It would be nice if the ratings were more accessible in the SQL tables. Thanks.1 vote
