- Most libraries need reporting tools to support daily operational needs and workflows, extend FOLIO functionality, and allow links to other systems
- Libraries who run reports need the ability to define, code and run custom defined reports.
- An LDP app is in development
- LDLite is also an available tool - https://github.com/library-data-platform/ldlite

User Management
- Most academic libraries will want integration with a campus identity management system, as well as the ability to support users that are not in that system. The campus identity management system maintains identities, including inflow and outflow.
- Most academic libraries also need to support Single Sign-On, including support for federated signon, e.g.
- User management may also play a part in access control - Users data can verify eligibility, provide physical access (cardswipe/turnstile) and provide network access (RADIUS, local AD domain)
- External tools that are not in user management area rely on user management workflows to govern authorization (e.g., locker rental DB at UChicago.)
Note that FOLIO provides a bulk update user account module - mod-user-import (https://github.com/folio-org/mod-user-import)

- As of the Lotus release, FOLIO supports exporting orders in EDIFACT format, and importing invoices in EDIFACT format, but does not yet support order import in EDIFACT format. See
Jira Legacy server System Jira serverId 01505d01-b853-3c2e-90f1-ee9b165564fc key UXPROD-531 - Many libraries have home-grown tools used in Acquisitions (like Cornell's POOF tool). Those are not listed here, but are important considerations for implementers.

- FOLIO provides built-in integration with EBSCO Holdings Management via the FOLIO eHoldings app
- FOLIO provides support for a local knowledge base using the Local KB Admin app. The local knowledge base can be populated in multiple ways including:
- From GOKb (the Global Open Knowledege base) through an integration which automatically harvests data from the GOKb and populates the local KB
- From KBART files provided by suppliers
- From JSON files
- From the LAS:eR ERM (via an additional data sync module developed by Knowledge Integration and University of Leipzig)
