  1. I know it's a long shot, but it would be incredibly helpful if there was a way to send a reminder email if program attendance hasn't been entered by a certain time period (i.e. a week after the program occurred), as staff often forget to enter attendance after events and we spend a lot of time trying to track down these errant stats.

  2. It's a great feature, but seems a little bare-bones at the moment? It would be fantastic to add a title field so that we know what program these additional attendance numbers are coming from, and also to be able to edit logged hours in case there's a mistake. Thank you!

  3. We'd like to use the color coding options, but for events with multiple categories, the color that displays seems to be whichever is first alphabetically. It would be nice to choose which categories take priority or to have a default color and only display a different color for specific categories. It would be most useful for us to have ages as a separate identifier that could be color-coded and have priority.

  4. A member library wants to create rooms that are viewable by patrons, but which they cannot reserve.

    Right now, the only way we can accomplish this is to remove all availability from a room. But that isn't ideal, not least because (a) it gives patrons no idea of when the room might be in use, as well as cluttering up the , and (b) if staff want to manually book it for patrons on the back-end, they must click through repeated warnings.

    This appears to be included as part of another idea (https://ideas.iii.com/forums/951976-vega-program/suggestions/49834827-add-option-for-other-location-visibility-on-back-e), but not addressed there.

  5. Some libraries want to use the color coding for rooms/locations instead of categories.

  6. Libraries should be able to modify email templates for the languages they offer to their patrons.

    As a patron, Program should detect the browser language to determine which language template to use.

    For example, a patron with the browser set to German who registers for an event gets emails from the German templates.

  7. When you click on the STATS page and you scroll down to see the branch stats, it would be nice to be able to click on each category and have it further break down to list each program you did in that category and the attendance there.

    We are using private categories and cannot even see those categories on our excel report, so if we could click on a category from that view and have it open one level further to list our programs, it would also be a quick way to check and make sure a branch has all…

  8. Libraries would like to have the capability to edit bulk events that are not part of a series. For example, if the Auditorium has an issue and is unavailable, move all the events to a different area.

  9. 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?

  10. The libraries in a cooperative would find it valuable to get demographic data on who is registering for events. If the person registering for a program is an existing library patron and Vega Program is connecting over to Polaris/Sierra to validate anyway, it ought to be possible to grab demographic data to report on.

    It would also be helpful to get data on people who register for programs but don't have a library account. There could be an "opt-in" checkbox on the registration form to facilitate communicating through Vega Promote campaigns.

  11. 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.

  13. 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.

  14. When we book a room, we can also book equipment.
    When we create an event, we can book a room, but not reserve equipment, that has to be done separately. We have parent/child rooms. That means that if staff does not book chairs, they may end up with none. It will mean staff have to do twice as much work to make sure they have the equipment that they need.
    Please tie in equipment bookings to the Events calendar, so staff can book everything at once.

  17. We'd like the option to be able to choose to send all registrants straight to waitlist with no bookings allowed on patron level. Then, like the current waitlist, we can manually add them to the registration when we open it up.

  18. 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!

  19. Our workflow is this: librarians create events. Managers approve events. Admins publish the events. The problem lies in the approval process: Everything that's approved/ready to post goes to one big list. We host hundreds of events, so if we could filter by manager or building, that would be a huge enhancement. Another shortcoming is that the Admins have no way of knowing if the managers have approved their events. A three-step process for (1) creating; (2) approving (with a checkmark or something); and (3) publishing events would also be an enormous improvement.

  20. Saving a draft should block the room, which allows staff to be more efficient. They won't need to delete or unpublish public/private events to prevent the room from being booked.

    This is important when 100+ events are happening in a single month.
