Staff members now receive clear feedback when attempting to send ILL notices to patrons who have no email address on file or haven't configured their messaging preferences for interlibrary loan notifications.
Previously, when clicking "Send notice to patron" for an ILL request, staff received no indication whether the notice was successfully queued for delivery. If the patron had no email address or hadn't opted in to ILL messaging preferences, the notice would silently fail to send, leaving staff unaware that the patron wasn't notified.
With this enhancement:
- A warning message now displays if the notice cannot be queued: "The requested notice was NOT queued for delivery by email, SMS"
- A success message displays when the notice is successfully queued
- Staff can immediately see when they need to contact the patron through alternative means (such as telephone)
**For staff:** If you see the warning message, check the patron's record to ensure:
1. They have a valid email address on file
2. They have enabled ILL messaging preferences (Interlibrary loan ready / Interlibrary loan unavailable) in their patron messaging preferences
