  • Deleting acquisition units
    • Only thing stopping users from deleting an acq unit is having users assigned to it. (If they have permissions). 
    • If associated with orders or other apps, can cause problems with other records once deleted.
  • Bug
  • Shouldn't be able to delete at all. Maybe deprecating is better? 
  • Created PO was then lost to user once acq unit was deleted.
  • Might be that some of the restrictions are staying a place, in which case definitely a bug.
  • Should we allow deletion?
  • Check for records associated or deprecation (addition "Inactive" status) would work
:30Implementer's Topics, #111Dennis Bridges
  • Widgets in Dashboard for Acq Apps
  • Martina - the Bienenvolk development team is starting to extend the Dashboard functionality to add an ACQ related widget
  • E.g. - Show all items overdue, that I've ordered and haven't been delivered (precondition for claiming)
  • Would make sense to have Owen on for discussion. 
  • Bringing specific use cases would be helpful in informing development
  • Friday meeting agenda, probably in the new year
  • Martina Schildt | VZG 12:35 PM
    Here are the WOLFcon sched Details with slides: https://wolfcon2023.sched.com/event/2afabf08b39240a88c7715c20c2c2add
:36Implementer's Topics, #112Dennis Bridges
  • Retro fit a POL as a Package and/or add POL to Open Ongoing Order to handle Name Change (other instances)
  • Happens regularly with ongoing orders where things change over time
  • When already created as straightforward title link to inventory, ongoing subscription order - stuck and cannot do anything
  • Need for ability to convert standard POLs to Package POLs and to add POLs in the future. Reasons to have both
  • Flexibility ideal for ongoing orders - all about history, longevity, information
  • Seems like converting standard POL to package POL would not be problematic.
    • Would need to change title to package name.
    • Receiving workflow would from that point on be independent.
  • Going back the other way would be more complicated. Is it also a relevant use case to change a package POL into a standard POL? 
    • Can't imagine why you would need to do that. 
    • Never have synchronized for an ongoing order. 
  • For adding POLs, would that make sense for one-time orders? 
    • No. If you place a one-time order, you know what you are ordering. Only time it doesn't come into play is multi-volume, that's about quantity and price though
    • Far more likely for ongoing orders.
  • Once ordered, would it be dangerous to allow any given person to add something extra to that? 
    • Needing another permission for it would add a bit more complexity
    • Kimberly Pamplin 12:56 PM
      Would order history show that it was added later?
      • At the moment it would not. Should be added. Maybe even that a POL was deleted.
    • scolglaz 12:57 PM
      I am not worried
      POL date created would show it
  • Kimberly Smith - Is there anything in compliance or auditing where we would be relying on the software to put an internal control in place? 
    • Internal control
