Libraries walk through workflows from beginning to end, e.g. Purchase a resource for a patron (incl. Orders, Receiving, Requests, Invoices, Check-in, Check-out, Inventory)
Incl. gap analysis
- pain points related to record interactions
- when migratingĀ
- moving items, holdingsĀ
- right use cases and right library person needs to be there
- Managing upgrades so that implemented libraries to take advantage of new functionality
- Example: new connection between order lines and holdings records with Kiwi, but existing orders migrating over will not have this information populated. There should be a way to support existing data in FOLIO to take advantage of the new feature.
- May be related to earlier issue of reference data getting overwritten when upgrading. Tech Council recommended a series of test scripts as part of definition of done. Maybe we need to also address assisting libraries who are upgrading.
- There will be a conversation with the Acquisitions SIG - can also go to Implementer's SIG.
- talking through use cases
- Inventory is a central app; how can we make interactions easier
- define business processes involved
- thinking about process rather than data points
- SWOT related to design decisions: showing advantages of FOLIOs approach vs. disadvantages (we do not want to build a monolithic system)
- devs needed
