  • MODBULKOPS-109
    • Module has been released and awaiting deployment in Orchid and Bugfest.
  • CSV vs In-app poll
    • How many are using csv approach in production? Respond to survey.

      • CSV approach = downloading .csv file, making changes, saving and uploading new .csv file 
    • Big jobs such as fiscal year rollover use .csv approach

    • Comments:
      • CSV allows editing all fields, but requires skill and is cumbersome

      • Invest in in-app approach

3Orchid UAT follow up
  1. MODEXPW-417 - Address type is represented by UUID instead of value  
    1. Address Type is represented by UUID instead of value

    2. Unique value of address field. Prevents update of unique identifiers. Will not allow change in .csv approach.

  2. UIBULKED-275 - Order alphabetically the list of available columns
    1. Will add feature to filter/search by column name
    2. Once filtered, how do you continue to build your list?
    3. Provide a multi-select box? https://folio-org.github.io/stripes-components/?path=/story/components-multiselect--actions.
      1. Comments: If multi-select is an option in one app, it should be available in Bulk Edit also so that apps behave consistently. 
      2. Will our selection be saved for next session? Will we have to uncheck the boxes to make a new list?
    4. In Agreements, there is an option to type in a filter, check it. This allows multiple selections. Click on x to remove all selections. Could this work the same for Bulk Edit?
  3. UIBULKED-281 - Filter by start and end date  - what should be the expected behavior?
    1. End Date? Search for past transactions? By date report was run? 


    2. Labeling causes confusion. Columns are labeled: "Started running" and "Ended running" and filters are labeled "Start Date: To From" and "End Date: To From". Labels will be changed as an easy fix. 

    3. Could we have a Filter by User option?
