• “reporting-general” renamed to “folio-reporting-general” on FOLIO Project slack

• 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?"
