Announcements:

• About the Reporting SIG meeting schedule

  • Meetings are held on the first 4 Mondays of each month at 11:00 am Eastern U.S. time (see this time in your time zone). The first and third Mondays focus on Reporting Development topics, and the second and fourth Mondays focus on Reporting Business topics. 

  • "business" means topics like presentations on reporting functionality and new features, new reporting applications, surveys and studies on reporting, etc.

  • "development" means working on derived tables and report queries for the folio-analytics GitHub repository

  • "workshopping" queries could be scheduled during any of these meetings, and it would be great to have topics and/or questions in advance so we can prepare to walk through the answers/approaches, such as "how to I fix this inventory query to get rid of the duplicates?" or "what is the best way to calculate totals in this finance query?" 

Ongoing Topics:

• Workshopping your queries

  • part of each Reporting SIG business meeting will be devoted to time to work through any query questions you may have

  • please reach out to Christie Thomas if you have a question you would like to "workshop" during an upcoming Reporting SIG meeting

  • Are there any new fields or features we should know about from any of the functional areas that may impact reporting?

Index Data updates

Mike GorrellAny updates Mike might have on Metadb, LDP, Reporting App, derived tables, or other topics

1. Dev Team is working on test strategy for Metadb 1.4, which includes ability to transform JSON natively (not via Derived Tables).

• Recall we need to test performance and prioritize which tables/elements/columns get transformed

• We will be working with CU Boulder to schedule testing in their environment

• Hoping for a November release - more news next week

2. FOLIO Reference environment - we are planning to provision a community reference environment for Metadb <-> FOLIO testing. We are hoping to have this in place leading up to the Ramsons release at the end of the year.

• The environment will be separate from existing environments

• There will be a public Metadb instance that corresponds with a FOLIO instance.

• We will update the environment to be on the next release (Ramsons) roughly the same time as Bugfest starts (Mid-November) so that we can test Metadb with new FOLIO features.

• Given the timing, we may be using Metadb 1.4 - TBD.

• QUESTION - what data will we use for this environment?

3. New Index Data Team member -Lauren Seney - replacing Corrie for many things - will be growing into her role with Metadb.
