    Is the Nickname the same as the Username used when logging in? or does it refer to a preferred name such as Bob vs Robert?

    Maybe have a setting to let libraries turn on the tags they want to display and with an option to show all same tags or just the first one for those wishing to limit the display amount.

    This should be a opt in or out SA setting. For our Library, we allow holds on accounts regardless of status on regular cards. We only block the checkout when the account is in question. We figure if someone wants an item bad enough to put a hold on it, they will have their account status corrected.

    Something like on the due date or return, the next hold goes pending then held. The customer would then be notified and would be encouraged to bring their items back when they go to pick up the new held item, when they are ready for it.

    What if you already have an existing barcode in the former barcode field and need to keep it.

    We are discontinuing our telephone renewal system. To help staff create and update new accounts in Leap or while using the Polaris Client, it is necessary to suppress or remove the notification options of phone1, phone2, and phone3 so that staff don't select any of those options. This will keep the accounts correctly entered.

    Our customers will expect a certain number of details about charges to their account. Why are they being charged? when did they have the item? where did they get the item? when was the charge applied? what was the item title?
