Data Dictionary and Glossary

Vandana and the group will discuss building a data dictionary and glossary for reporting.

Notes:

  • There is a need to clarify in the case of some terminology (e.g., "effective location")
  • Factual vs. conceptional descriptions
  • Vandana shares some preliminary documentation: Data Dictionary for Reporting
  • Element pathways will be included in the LDP schema, so it may not be necessary to include it in the Data Dictionary
  • It's important to be mindful of the role of developers in creating documentation like this.
    • Developers have more information than Reporting SIG members.
  • Kevin: Should this idea be taken to someone who is helping to organize the overall FOLIO development workflows (e.g., Mark Veksler)?
    • Complete a solid proof of concept, share the idea, and ask for feedback as to how to bring the idea to fruition
  • Kevin: Could element names be improved in some cases (e.g., "userGroup" instead of "group" in the User Groups API pathway of the Users module
Circ Item Detail Report Prototype

-Nassib and Roman implementing this data model in the shared LDP data warehouse

-Latest update on progress from Nassib

Notes:

  • Generated test data for the current report.
  • Probably have to scale back our approach to generating test data (dynamically) because it takes too long. Instead might create a static test data set.
  • Working on factoring the ETL process to make it easier to have developers contribute code
  • Doing some prototyping on eUsage use case
  • Prototyping a FOLIO server-side module to provide LDP data to FOLIO apps
Naming Conventions for Reports and Queries

-Angela shares notes from F2F meeting in DC: FOLIO Face-to-Face DC Conference Reporting Session Notes

Notes:

  • Differentiation between "report" and "query" 
  • Names for reports focus on how the resulting data will be used
  • Names for queries focus on how the data is retrieved from the LDP
  • Umbrella categories for reports will map to the FOLIO modules and API pathways (e.g., users, circulation, inventory, finance and orders, and resource management)
  • Sharon: We should push F2F meeting notes out as documentation
For our next meeting...
