  • Today, want to review details of what needs to be exported. 
  • Original purpose was to bulk edit allocations 
  • Now it's about what is being exported. 
  •  Dennis: Is it clear what these are? 
    • From Lisa Smith to Everyone 12:10 PM
      Michigan State is most interested in exporting invoice & POL information.
    • From Dung-Lan Chen to Everyone 12:12 PM
      I am glad fiscal year rollover came up as that's something coming up soon for our library in less than three months.  I'm looking to arrange discussions/revisit of this topic.

      Us too.
    • Yes.
      Very valuable.
    • From Lisa Smith to Everyone 12:18 PM
      I think our accounting dept would like exporting of fund info.
    • From Scott Perry (he/him) to Everyone 12:20 PM
      This is also helpful for day to day work with fund balances by Acq staff.  Currently if you call up a fund you don’t see the valuable information for those working on orders (available balance for one) on the first display under funds.
  • Dennis: If exporting in this way, you are getting group information. If there is a mono group and a serial group, this fund may be a part of multiple groups. If it is, you will get multiple groups. Right now this export doesn't include an export of group summary. 
    • From Ann Crowley to Everyone 12:21 PM
      Our funds are only linked to 1 group
    • From Scott Perry (he/him) to Everyone 12:21 PM
      Our funds are linked to multiple groups. Not exporting the group summary information is fine with me
    • From Ann Crowley to Everyone 12:22 PM
      We could create a pivot table to get the total group information
    • From Bill Verner to Everyone 12:22 PM
      We would not care about exporting the group summary
    • Dennis: How how a priority is exporting group data? You can easily calculate, but it's not exported as a summary.
      • From Ann Crowley to Everyone 12:22 PM
        no (it's not)
      • From Lisa Smith to Everyone 12:22 PM
        +1
      • From Sara Colglazier (MHC/5C) to Everyone 12:22 PM
        Fund + Expense more important
      • From Scott Perry (he/him) to Everyone 12:24 PM
        Group summary here is not important to me.
      • From Scott Perry (he/him) to Everyone 12:25 PM
        I created a group of all funds to get summary for all expense classes.

  • Allow user to export invoices - Acquisitions SIG - FOLIO Wiki 
  • Discussed what data we are talking about. 
  • There are tiers here. 
  • Discussed the data points found at the invoice level and the invoice line level. 
  • Keep in mind: You can filter invoices by fund code or expense class. 
  • If there were data points that no one thinks need to be exported, that would be helpful. It would be valuable to export some voucher information, si that's been added. 
  • Is any data information missing that you think is important?
  • From Lisa Smith to Everyone 12:41 PM
    Invoice exporting with POL details sounds great!  We need this!  I'm sure we don't need all of these fields, but they are too small for me to see them clearly!
  • Question: Do we have to export all the data points, or can we choose which ones?
    • Dennis: You can select which ones to export. 
  • From Scott Perry (he/him) to Everyone 12:43 PM
    As others have said, there is probably more than I would generally need, but the ability to limit the export fields covers that.
  • There could be a discrepancy in what appears in inventory and what appears on the invoice. 
  • Dennis: Please review the link Allow user to export invoices - Acquisitions SIG - FOLIO Wiki for the data points and provide feedback by Friday. 
47 minutes Ability to change the instance connection of a purchase order line
  • Use case: Order is connected to the wrong instance
  • Assume you want to take everything associated with the order and move it. 
  • Dennis: As an initial approach, want to say if you change the instance connection all related records will be moved. 
  • Originally having you edit the pol and change the title connection. That is proving to be difficult. Might be better to have an 'action' for 'change instance connection'. 
  • Need to know how you would like to treat the holdings?
  • Will give a list of items that will be moved. 
  • When it comes to how the holdings is managed, need user input. Three options. 
    • Move
    • Find or create new
    • Create New
    • Last possibility: 
      • If the holdings leaving behind no longer have item records, you can delete the holdings while you are doing this. 
    • From Julie Stauffer to Everyone 12:58 PM
      I have to leave for a 1:00 meeting; I'll need to follow-up separately with my question.
