Housekeeping
- Convener and notes: Martina Schildt
- Next meeting: May 22nd is cancelled
Discussion items
- Implementers topics | Cross-app: UX/UI
- Enhancements to the UI for Inventory/Quick Marc: UI Enhancement list - status of 2023 (Nolana) | Natascha Owens
Minutes
- Enhancements can be raised by everyone
- not a lot of discussion in MM so far
- looking whether there are already solutions in other apps that could be used
- looking for cases where other apps have the same need and issues can be processed to UX/UI developers for general solutions
- 1st line in table: looks like a bug → create a ticket → Martina Schildt
- "public" checkbox is not displayed in display mode
- chronology does not display
- Receiving history in Inventory - re-discuss in ACQ
- "public" checkbox should be added to Receiving
- Kristin Martin will add to ACQ implementers list
- general rules:
- edit and display mode should display the same information
- Owen in chat: I think another generalisable rule might be that where possible MCLs should offer the user to control which columns display - unless there is a clear reason not to (i.e. default should be user controllable display for MCL)
- 2nd line in table
- missing feature: sorting or rank field is not exposed
- users would like to move feilds up and done as in QuickMarc
- it is soting chronology based on creation date
- user would like the ability to control that order
- Kimberly in chat: I can see lots of places where reordering would be helpful. Invoice lines. Order lines.
- Owen in chat: I agree Kimberly, but I’m having difficulty in knowing what the general principle might be. FWIW we’ve also had similar requests in ERM apps
- in QuickMarc sorting works up and down arrows
- in Dashboard there is a drag and drop solution
- move holdings and items has a drag and drop as well
- and we also need to consider accessibility
- Owen in chat: In quickMARC you can at least use tab to hightligh the up/down arrow then press enter repeatedly to move the field the right places; Navigating the quickMARC by keyboard seems pretty nice to me even without lots of additional shortcuts
- Martina Schildt will arrange a meeting with UX/UI designers (Kimie, Gill) on sorting
- 3rd line in table
- pattern for only "save"
- Continue discussion on June 5th and 14th
- Question TBD: How can we best share alingments with POs and developers
