  1. Circa is a web application running on the main Sierra's webserver and is available from anywhere that https is available, yet it still only supports legacy Sierra only staff accounts and not SSO via SAML. Changing all staff login functions to require SSO and disabling legacy Sierra only account support is an important step towards Sierra being a secure ILS at the enterprise level. Not supporting SSO creates extra burden on staff by requiring another password, removing the ability to enforce strong authentication, and adds extra account support costs for a busy and non-technical team.

  2. Allow for Global Update of fund codes. I work in an academic library and will often get purchase lists from our liaison librarians for a specific department. The records are brought in and the attached order records are edited in GU with the correct vendor, and selector, etc. It would be a time-saver if I could also update the fund code (which are tied to academic departments) at the same time.

  4. Staff are often confused by the need to post in order for new/cancelled orders to be reflected in their funds, particularly as the system does not provide an indication that those changes need to be committed. These are included when you select post all within the pay an invoice function (which staff won't look at if they aren't actively paying an invoice) but they do not appear listed within any of the 10 payment sessions or under funds adjustments.

    Adding an entry for perhaps some more prominent indicator that funds may not reflect current totals will help greatly to remind…

  5. Convert current Sierra print templates for spinelabels to something like what is available for email notices in LX Starter. We need an easier, more user friendly way to customize spine labels in Sierra. It is way too cumbersome and time-consuming with current print templates in Sierra and requires a third party application.

    Idea Value
    This will benefit the already-crunched for time and resources for Acquisitions and TechServices teams as well as PublicServices and ultimately benefits Patrons.

    This idea has been reviewed with Engineering. The development of a replacement system for printing spine labels (and potentially other forms used in Sierra) would require resources that have been committed to other projects in the near-term roadmap. 

    Product Management will archive this idea for future reference and may re-evaluate this enhancement for a later release.
