Limit patron registration
It would be really nice if Vega Program would prevent a patron from registering for multiple events occurring at the same time, since they cannot possibly attend more than one at a time. An alert - via email, text (when available), or pop-up that either 1) the registration cannot be completed because they are registered for another event or 2) offer to cancel their existing registration and complete the current one.

Add Option to Remove Created Locations (Or at least explain why they can't currently be removed/how they can be)
Currently, no option exists to remove a created Location. It IS clearly stated when creating a Location that they cannot be deleted post creation, but there's no explanation given as to why this is, nor how one could go about deleting them--if possible at all. The Locations can obviously be made invisible to both staff & users to free them up from most areas in the system, but they still remain when reviewing the list of Locations.
This makes things like temporary off-site locations needlessly troublesome to handle since they effectively become "dead" options that remain in the list with…

Add Option for Other Location Visibility on Back-End Calendar And Option to Create Room that's Viewable but not Bookable by Users
We believe it'd be helpful if there was an option for the Back-end Calendar to display events that occur at locations alternative to the main location, and an option to create rooms that are viewable by patrons but not are not actually bookable.
Our library occassionally hosts programs in open spaces within the building, such as the open space in the children's department or a small nook in the YA area. We've found difficultly properly displaying these events on both the back- & front-end calendars for staff and users, as the options currently available for such events either don't equivalently…

future events
Can you add an option for editing to update all future events from the date of the edited event? The feature to edit all future from today is very helpful, but when we decide we are going to change a program's time in the fall, for example, it would be nice not to have to delete all those events and rebook or edit them each individually.

Add "Registration Closed" to the List View
Currently in the list view of upcoming Events, you see "Fully Booked", but it is not clear whether the waiting list is still open. The user would need to select the event and scroll down to see "it's not currently possible to join the waiting list".
To avoid extra clicks and scrolling, it would be good to add "Registration Closed" to the list view.2 votes -
Staff Side 'Add Bookings' Customization
- Add the ability to change the behavior of the Add Bookings page to default to a Guest booking rather than a Member booking. We typically don't require patrons to provide a library card number when registering for a program.
- Add the ability to make the Booking Note & Staff Name field not required. This may be confusing for staff and isn't something we would need every time staff register a patron for an event.

Post-booking approval
For the sake of enforcing use limit policies, it would be helpful to be able to approve bookings after they have already happened. With few staff who are able to approve requests, sometimes we don't get to approve requests before the room has already been used. To be able to approve requests after a booking (with the option not to notify a patron since there's no need) would then help the staff when reviewing future requests in the same limitation period. To help clarify, we have a playroom that is available by reservation, but walk-up use is welcomed and counts…

Filter for "private" events
It would be great to have a search term or filter that would allow us to see "private" events separately from "public" events and vice-versa. Without the draft feature allowing us to hold rooms, and to avoid having a very long approval list, our workaround has been to publish our placeholders/drafts as "private" events. We still make paper calendars for our patrons, so being able to filter out the private events easily would be a big help.

Use patron record number as the primary system ID rather than barcode
It appears the system might be using patron barcode as the primary ID for patron records rather than patron record number. This is problematic when a patron loses their barcode and it needs to be replaced or, as mentioned in another idea, the patron has multiple barcodes for some reason. This makes it difficult for a patron to keep track of their past programs, as well as their waitlists, which no longer function if their barcode changes. Would also probably require a way to merge records that exist with the same patron record number.

Edit info on past bookings
We'd love the option to edit patron information on bookings that have already concluded. Because patrons don't have to enter their full names when utilizing the guest booking feature, it would help us to be able to add that information retrospectively in order to better facilitate approvals for future use.

Add "Tomorrow" to Date Range drop down
Staff have expressed an interest in having "tomorrow" as an option since "today" and "yesterday" are already an option, instead of having to go to "custom range" since they are looking ahead only a day or two.

Widget accessibility
Is there a way for the featured events widget to pull the dark overlay that exists on the actual event page banner/image instead of just the image? It makes it more accessible and easier to see.

Staff Created Room Booking Adds the Option to for a Mediated Review
To best serve our patrons, we offer that they can book the rooms over the phone with a staff member. To best serve our staff, they do not have to approve every request that comes in; they can simply submit it, and an appropriate staff member will review and approve/reject the request.

Filter calendar by categories
The same way that we can filter from the staff home page by category, we'd love to be able to filter the staff calendar view by category.

Program should be able to handle accounts with more than one barcode
In our system, there are patrons who have more than one card number. If those patrons attempt to register for a program with the number that is not the first number listed on their account, then Vega Program is unable to find them in the system and a "No Matching Member is Found" error is generated.

Add to calendar
Can the public Add to Calendar link be something that can be more easily added to a Google calendar rather than just downloaded as an iCalendar file?

Blacklist for Problem Patrons
We need a way to block problem patrons from being able to reserve rooms. It can either be a blacklist where we add the patron barcode or have Vega Program look at the MBlock in Sierra or the Polaris equivalent and deny that way.

Creating an iCAL link?
This is more of a question, but is there a way that you can generate an iCAL link or something similar so that you can add groups of events in a particular category to your Google Calendar? I know there's the option to do this individually for each event, but I was curious if there were bulk options. Thanks!

Equipment check out in Program
Some libraries have been interested in using the Equipment module to reserve book kits, or other materials but they also want the ability to check it out on the patron's card.
