Wishlist: Ability to Email Item Receipts from Items Out Screen

[John Amundson]

In the web client, it is possible to email and print item receipts during checkout. However, once checkout is closed, there is no way to email a receipt.

I would like to see the ability to email an item receipt from the patron's Items Out screen, (like how an Item receipt can be printed from this screen).

Similar to the option on Checkout, the Items Out version would email the receipt to the email address attached to the patron's account.

I could see this manifesting as an additional Actions menu option, see attached mockup.

We do most of our renewing from Items Out so I agree with this. Also, you should be able to print Renew Receipts from Items Out. Item Receipts aren't quite the same. Finally, there does not appear to be an email option in Renew Item.

Our libraries would love to see the option to email due date receipts from Items Out - both as renewal receipts, or as staff triggered reminders. Staff at multiple libraries have commented that patrons like to get lists of their current checkouts and due dates (rather than, I guess, look at their online accounts).

Emailed renewal due date receipts from Renew Items would also be ideal.
