Inventory demo

Dale

We'll have a 1/2 hour meeting today, just a check in to see how people's migrations are going, and to exchange ideas.

Notes;

• Recent demo by @Anne L. Highsmith and @Heather Thoele loading ongoing orders from Voyager to FOLIO.  Useful session and slide deck.

  • One problem was the date of the orders was changed by the business logic during the data load.  This will be addressed.

• Recent discussion on slack about which end-points should be used.  Should we ever use storage endpoints?

  • Not always easy to tell.  Sometimes yes...sometimes no.   Can vary by Module...has evolved.

    • Is this inconsistency an issue?  Patty is going to email the TC and get this on their radar.

    • Chicago planning to use storage module for source record storage

• In a recent snapshot release the ability to configure default mappings was released.

  • This will be discussed at the next data import meeting (Wed. 1:00 Eastern)

• Question for the group - how are we dealing with snapshot releases at this stage when there are important fixes?

  • Chicago- they put up snapshot releases in addition to the quarterly releases

• Lots of progress being made currently on funds/finance/money.  Lots of Acq. dev work going on (and other modules).

• Last week, the latest version of RAML module builder broke some modules - code related to users.  That change has been rolled back and working properly in current snapshot.  (this was not broken in the Daisy release)

• The "every two week" meeting schedule for this group has been working...so we'll plan to meet in two weeks.
