Page entries on the Resource Sharing form are only sent when enumeration fields are populated with information. |
Pages are sent only when enumeration fields are populated with information. For example, if volume field is not empty, pages are also sent. Otherwise, system sends ‘Full’ digitization request type. Full digitization request types cannot be processed by Deliver Digital Documents, which prevents staff from being able to complete Document Delivery workflows. Current work-around while we wait for repair: Mark “Volume” fields on resource sharing form “Mandatory” to force patrons to populate the fields to prevent the error. This is not a workable long-term solution since it’s confusing for the patrons.

ExL Case number: 00960981. cc'd FFG, ILLOPS, and IC groups. | Volume field must be made mandatory on resource sharing form. Note that this can cause an additional issue with the item locator during pick-from-shelf stage. Operator must use the “Attach Request” button to override and put the request in transit. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Preferred Pickup Location Error When Patron Chooses Owning Campus as Pickup | If a patron submits an AFN request for an item from another campus, and chooses the owning campus as the pickup location, Alma changes the pickup location for the request to the patron's home campus instead. If a patron submits an AFN request for an item from another campus, and sets the preferred pickup to a third campus (not their own, and not the owning campus) everything works as expected (the patron is able to pick up from their preferred pickup location). This is happening for all campuses

Books received in VDX are getting an Alma expiration date several days before the local due date- Affecting UCLA | All books that UCLA is receiving in VDX are getting an ALMA expiration date of 4 days before the local due date. This issue has been generating a large volume of manual work for our ILL staff to correct the expiration dates. | UCLA |

Unable to check out AFN borrowed items to their requesters- Affecting UCLA | We're seeing some instances of error messages when trying to check out an item borrowed via the AFN to the patron that requested it. When we attempt to check out the item to the UCLA patron, we choose the item's home institution from the dropdown menu, but when we scan the barcode, we are given an error message that the item is on hold for another patron. | UCLA |

Error message when patrons attempt to check out AFN borrowed materials using self check machines- Affecting UCLA and UCSD | UCLA and UCSD are reporting error messages when patrons attempt to check out their AFN requested materials using our 3M/Bibliotheca self-check machines. Both campuses have self-service hold shelves where patrons can retrieve their local and AFN requested items and then check them out using self-check machines located near the shelves. Patrons are reporting error messages when they attempt to scan the barcodes of their AFN requested items for checkout. The error message they are receiving is that the item does not exist. Item barcodes are unique across institutions. This is a critical error for institutions because a significant amount of checkout takes place using these self-checks and hold shelves. | UCLA |
Ex-libris says this can be resolved if the consortia decides to change the settings for patron and item barcodes to be UNIQUE | UCLA Salesforce Ticket https://exlibrisgroup--c.visualforce.com/apex/VF_Case_WithoutJira?id=5004y00001hJ3PiAAK | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

Comment field entries on request form currently not displaying on the lender side |
Patron entries to the Comment field on the Resource Sharing form are not coming through to the lender side of the request. This is a critical issue since it prevents staff from knowing details of the patron request that they could not, or choose not to communicate using the other fields (volume, pages, etc.)

- https://3.basecamp.com/3765443/buckets/15553579/messages/3700858079 Use Deliver Digital Documents from Fulfillment menu to send file using request ID. We still need a case to inform support about this issue. | Davis Jason Newborn this one looked like you were working with Svetlana on this. Can you take the lead on getting this written up and emailed to sils-syops@cdlib.org, so they can submit to Salesforce? |

ExL Case number: 00961961. cc’d Fulfillment FG listserv, Derek Sisneros, and Robin Gustafson | Workaround is to use alternative “Deliver Digital Items” workflow (which Ex Libris recommends anyway). This should have minimal or no impact, but needed to be reported. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Request moves from one institution to the next instead of cancelling when the patron cancels their request in Primo. | The patron cancels the request from the lending library tab, but the request does not cancel in full. The request is cancelled from the current lending institution and moves on to the next institution on the string. According to Ex-Libris, when a patron cancels their request, it should be completely canceled and not sent to the next partner in the rota.
