Implementer's Topic #120

  • Finance: change presettings for search & filter

  • We would like the status filter to be set to "active" by default when opening the Finance app. We would like to do this in the ledger tab as well as the group and fund tabs.

  • Dennis: It would be most helpful to allow a user to pick what the default will be.

  • Ann Crowley 12:15 PM
    +1 to user preferences

  • Dennis: Ideal option 1 is a user pick their own setting. Option 2 is an admin picks the what setting is default for their library. Option 3, the folio community comes together.

  • Should probably add this as support for developing as user or app based. Will add this information to the existing feature we already have that describes user based configurations.

  • Does anyone think it’s worth working on app based user configuration so a library can set the configuration?

    • As a temp working towards user based would be ok.

    • Lisa Smith, Mich State 12:21 PM
      For me, I look at status 'active' with nearly every search.  I look at other status for troubleshooting.

    • Ann: really would like user based since each job will have different work flows needing different options.

    • Kimberly Smith (MTSU) 12:22 PM
      [UXPROD-1398] User Preferences - FOLIO Jira (atlassian.net) This might be the JIRA Dennis is referencing

    • Comment added to line to create Jira for user preference.

Implementers Topic 121

  • Orders, Order Lines, Invoices: Add a filter

  • Could we add Ledger Group as a filter to Orders, Order Lines and Invoices?  This would allow for a way to group transactions that are affecting a whole group rather than just one individual fund.  Alternatively, could the fund code filter function the same as the expense class feature in both order/order lines and invoices. (See differences in images below)

  • Dennis: Would you expect that to be an “AND” or an “or”?

  • Lisa Smith, Mich State 12:26 PM
    or

  • Dennis: Just need to create a Jira story and assign it to the enhancements functionality.

Implementers Topic 123

  • Susanne Gill

  • Receiving App: Fields from Holdings/Item level in piece Information

  • At the moment there are just some fields from Holdings and Item level in the piece information.

    1. It would be very useful to have more fields from Holdings and Item level in the piece information so that we do not have to go to the Inventory App to fill out the other fields during the receiving process. This would save us a lot of time.

    2. If the fields on Holdings and Item level in the Inventory App are populated afterwards, it should be also possible that these information are also shown in the fields in the piece information.

  • Dennis: Main reason to have it there is to not have to add it to the item record separately?

    • Yes.

    • Dennis: Not to sort or filter?

    • correct.

  • In the Q release we updated the piece a bit and organized fields into accordions. There is now an item accordion and we've made it consistent.

  • Sara: This needs a bigger discussion. If we add a filed it would need to be able to deactivate, we would not want the call number piece connection.

  • Sabrina Bayer 12:47 PM
    We have our call number in the Holdings record as well (in the most cases).

  • Lisa Smith, Mich State 12:47 PM
    +1 Sara

  • Susanne: lets wait and see what functionality is in the Q release, then update the topic and have a bigger discussion.

  • Dennis - if you have comments about this, please add it to the topic on the Implementers page.
