Reservation and report enhancements, and other improvements – February 2024 myTurn Updates

Reservation and report enhancements, and other improvements

While we continue to add new features at a good clip, we have also been focusing on quality, reliability, and improving many long outstanding less-critical issues. We’re also working on improved user journeys and simplified configuration. Expect to continue to see major improvements across myTurn in the coming months.

Important updates for February 2024 incoude:

  • Display estimated cost and the number of items to reservations
  • Date range filter for Overdue Loans, complete with quick filter settings
  • Addition of item grouping to loan and overdue reminder emails when grouping items by quantity rather than listing each copy on its own line
  • Improved handling of item swaps due to conflicts, particularly in relation to reservation dates
  • Specification of projects for items in loan reminder emails, providing better project tracking and management (if using our optional project tracking features)
  • Disabled items are not longer included in the usage and other reports by default, but can be shown with an option
  •  We’ve added a timeout for adding items to the admin cart for checkout so local wifi/network issues or back end errors do not require recreating the whole check in/out
  • [beta] – Improvements merging user. Contact us for early access.
