Diagram of regular DI flow for creating SRS MARC Bib and Instance
Option 1
Expand |
---|
Remove step when initial records are saved in SRS (in batches). Save incoming parsed content in SRM (it will be required for DI log) - it should be cleaned up when JobExecution is deleted Provide endpoint in mod-inventory-storage(?) to generate ids for the Instance (Holdings/Authority?) prior to creating those records in inventory (in batches?) Revisit 001 + 003 → 035 logic Save MARC (Edifact records are also not needed in SRS) in SRS only as implicit part of Create instance (Holdings/Authority?) action. Save one by one? Move on to inventory - basically finish the action there. Post-processing won't be required as ids are generated already, and underlying MARC contains them. Pros
Cons

Option 2 - SELECTED
Remove step when initial records are saved in SRS (in batches).
...
- Straightforward decision about action in SRM - following the profile (see diagram below)
- Simplified flow for scenarios that do need the SRS entity to be created
- No clutter in SRS (incoming records for the jobs that do not require SRS MARC to be created and linked with other entities, will not be saved)
- Removed post-processing step
- Performance benefits
...
- Error handling - in case MARC Bib was not created, we end up with Instance record (source=MARC), but no underlying SRS MARC. Need to make sure such Instance is editable
- Store all incoming records in SRM to be referenced from DI logs

Make Create SRS MARC action explicit - either additional action in the profile, or a checkbox - Save (or not) SRS MARC Bib ProsShifting decision making on the user side Straightforward flow ConsError prone - we'll have to validate profiles thoroughly, shifting responsibility to the step of profile creation basically hardcoding the same principles, but earlier |
