Features to review:

MM Copy of Feature Pointing Worksheet (created by Charlotte - copy of Holly's complete spreadsheet and turned it into an MM copy)

Scaled down copy of feature pointing worksheet (created by Laura - copied Holly's - removed basic elements, tried to keep ones related to MM) Also note the "Inventory Only" tab on this sheet

Christie: At Chicago - Inventory, Data Import, quickMARC and associated apps are where they are focusing. These apps are comparatively underdeveloped. Are there strategic ways we need to think about this. +1 from Lehigh, Duke, 5C via chat to Christie's comment.  Despite Charlotte's continuing efforts, these are behind. Can this be ratified by this point process?

Jason:  Noted the interaction of Inventory with many other apps. It may be more productive to talk about specific points within Inventory

Jacquie: Agreed. Most of Duke's issues are MM related. "Baseline" functionality is not there. We must have the tools we have right now: import data, export, update - 
"Record collision avoidance, data import, data export, development of SRS and quickMARC" The

Jessica (via chat): "Collision detection/prevention is the thing I care about the most. Otherwise we are accidentally wiping out changes, creating new errors, etc."

Ann-Marie (via chat) - "We do have another dev team for Data Import/quickMARC starting now - Khalilah's Spitfire devs. I totally agree with everything that Christie said. A couple key parts that are even more under-developed are hooking up with acquisitions - we don't have importing of MARC data for orders and invoices yet, and that seems like really basic functionality that we still need to get the overall scope of Data Import's data taken care of, and then we keep refining on the rest - logs, error handling, field protection, etc."
