4 | Bulk edit MARC Instances vs ETL | What are the expected benefits of using Bulk edit for editing MARC instances? Proposed architecture: Bulk Operations + Data Import integration approach Bulk Edit will use Data Import to update these fields. Consult the wiki page above on Bulk Operations. A job profile will be created just for Bulk Edit. Field protections will be looked at a little later. Question about performance: How will these bulk edit jobs that rely on Data Import be handled by the queue? Bulk Edit jobs should wait for single record import. File slicing is a tenant configuration and some institutions don’t do this. There is a problem with 100k records with the slicing. Should we continue to use the ETL approach until Data Import’s performance is improved? There may be a way to disable the funcationlity so that users can continue to use the ETL approach. Should the errors be on the Bulk Edit page or through Data Import? People would prefer that the errors appear in Bulk Edit. People like the ability to download the reports as a csv. The solution might be a mix with a brief log in Bulk Edit and then more details in Data Import.

6 | Bulk edit statistical codes | Supported actions for updating statistical codes for all inventory record types. People will have the ability to multiselect statistical codes. Can you add and remove statistical codes in the same Bulk Edit job? Magda will see if this is supported. Is there a mx length for the stat code names? There might not be a character limit for the name. Some institutions might have longer names than others. |
