"There is an urgent need for bulk delete of item records"
Charlotte clarified that all dependencies have been identified - update to slide.
Desired functionality - allow user to save list to be affected in a csv format so the records will be saved locally.
Export manager will save jobs.
Question: What happens to circ stats on items that have circulated and are deleted?
Magda asked if this would be a satisfactory implementation? - Records are deleted permanently, before warning "are you sure" with preview. Records can be downloaded. - These would follow same dependency checks as Inventory UI. - Jacquie likes the storing of the log file. - Charlotte asked if reason for failure could be given in Export Manager - Magda said "yes" - she showed mock-ups with this behavior. Example: Image Added - Positive feedback given. -The error list would go to the Export Manager
"Magda mentioned scheduled jobs. Which version of FOLIO did we get scheduled jobs in? Sorry I missed that!" – Jacquie Samples
Bulk edit inventory item records in CSV approach (UXPROD-3707)
CSV approach - User downloads a csv file, make modifications, upload corrected file.
Questions: Is this way of updated Inventory Item desired or should another option of adding fields to in app (Bulk Edit app) approach be considered? -Jacquie - CSV is a "workaround" because it is not inside of FOLIO. Prefers that this happens in the Bulk Edit app. Would help avoid data corruption. -Magda - not "either or" for long-run - just current prioritization. - Is worth waiting for Nolana -Most people would like to wait for work to be done in Bulk Edit app. -Group agreed that work on in app approach should be continued.
Other bulk edits needed: Loan type Notes (circulation, administrative notes, notes) Call number prefixes and suffixes Suggested: Item statistical codes Tags are on the roadmap, but since it is a separate record so to be considered later.
Intro to creating/editing test cases in TestRail, then the rest of the meeting will be a workshop, with attendees working on cases, and Ann-Marie/Charlotte on hand for questions
