| Review of 2022 goals, planning 2023 goals | All |
|
| Update on derived table documentation | | - Meeting notes
- A few options: full automation, semi automated, manually
- For charts/diagrams, probably have to use semi automated
- Full automation would require very exacting requirements for how derived tables are structured
- Semi automated would be more realistic; Stefan would write a script to pull things out of the postgres and thenadd some information
- For diagrams, can extract the tables involved and the foreign keys that connect them, then humans would create the diagrams
- Questions for the SIG:
- what additional columns as would be useful?
- the info from postgres is not everything you need; sometimes you need if this is an aggregated column/value
- Note: will send around homework and check back in on this at the next Monday meeting (Jan 23)

ERM Working Group
RM Working Group
Reporting SIG Documentation Subgroup - Morning Glory documentation is live on https://docs.folio.org/docs/
- Nolana documentation is in review
- Orchid documentation will be in progress soon, and plans are underway to include beta-level documentation for Metadb
- Additional Context
- The Reporting SIG has representation on the Documentation Working Group, which is building end-user documentation for https://docs.folio.org/docs/ (mostly linking to existing documentation over on GitHub)
External Statistics Working Group - no updates currently
- new organizational/tracking scheme for JIRA, with pointers to queries in folio-analytics repository
- New organizational structure for External Statistics reports
- external statistics reports (e.g., ACRL) typically require running queries from different functional reporting areas
- these reports will be captured in JIRA under one UXPROD-XXXX report cluster issue, then the descriptions will point to each of the queries required to run them on the folio-analytics repository
- institutions will need to rank each of these 8 new UXPROD-XXXX report cluster issues
- each reporting development team will take responsibility for the queries in their area for the external statistics clusters
Product Council
For all recent work on FOLIO Reporting SQL development:
|
| Topics for Future Meetings | All | - Exploring new recruitment/onboarding strategies (e.g., buddy system)
- More work on asynchronous collaboration, how to engage in discussions and question answering more broadly
- consider connecting discuss.folio.org with a Slack channel, to make sure any forum topics get highlighted on Slack as well?
- Open question: should we update FOLIO LDP1-based Reporting First Implementers Grid
- Cleaning up our wiki pages
- January 19: tips on querying date fields from Sharon and Joanne
- talk about preparation for Metadb: do institutions have questions? is there anything we should be working on to try to support them?
