Impacts of New Fields and Features

• Are there any new fields or features we should know about from any of the functional areas that may impact reporting?
  • New
  • From Recent Meetings
    
    • We will be getting new data fields for the Open Access app - more details coming
    • Timezone format is not consistent across the tables in FOLIO, which impacts LDP and Metadb
      • Nassib confirmed that he does not change timezone settings as part of the ETL with the LDP/Metadb software, so whatever is in FOLIO is what we get in LDP/Metadb
      • RFC-3339 sitting with TC about always representing times as an ISO date format https://github.com/folio-org/rfcs/pull/13
    • Invoices will have a fiscal year assigned. You will be able to process an invoice in a past fiscal year (with Poppy) and in a future fiscal year (after Poppy)
    • There is a proposal to deprecate the donor field in the POL and replace it with an Organization type of donor in Quesnelia.  This will also be linked to inventory in a future release as well.
    • (Jennifer Eustis) from MM: proposal for a new field for item source (New field in the item record: Source ID - Functional analysis)
    • (Stefan Dombek) feature with Orchid: in the module audit, we have logs for orders and order lines and snapshot for create, edit, and delete records (unfortunately not for fiscal year rollover, just create/edit/delete; need to know the date of your FYO and then report based on that) (

Any new members?

• Welcome/introductions

• Representative for the Documentation Working Group
• Query developers - possibly from Index Data?
• FOLIO Analytics Review Board 

ACQ + ERM are reunited.

Discussion on structuring an overview of reporting options:

• How we can structure the overview so that it can be used to select software?
• Look at multiple layers for each reporting option
  
  • Datasource, e.g. FOLIO
  • How are the data collected? E.g. with Metadb
  • Database, e.g. POSTGRES
  • Data presentation, e.g. 3rd party solution
• Each layer should described with:
  
  • Where is it hosted?,
  • Who is the vendor?,
  • Is there support?
  • etc.
• This is a good approach for a matrix
• After the matrix there is a critical overview in text form for each option

(Note from Tod: What sort of additional software is needed to interact with the data and make reports. i.e., is an external tool needed to run SQL (DBeaver, MS Access, Python scripts) or is there some sort of built-in functionality for building and running?

Notes:

• Diagram to describe the Metadb reporting structure was presented
• More reporting options than LDP are available, so good to provide in an overview
• Important to include Lists app and Reporting app in this overview
