NERS Enhancement (Request ID #4856): Alma performs a real time background check when a patron opens a request form on the Primo Get It tab, or using the blank request form to determine whether any rota partner has a requestable copy of the resource. Alma displays an indication about which partners have the item available. Alma displays a warning to the patron if a copy appears to be unavailable. To enable this, configure the Item Availability field on the Primo Resource Sharing Request form. See Customizing Primo Resource Sharing Forms.
