Minutes

Development progress update

  • focus of sprint 112 is fixing issues arising from Iris bugfest
  • sprint 112 finishes end of this week
  • work on getting dashboard ready to be available on hosted reference environments - planned for end of this week
  • functionality planned to be delivered for Juniper release

Dashboard - including homework

  • at the moment the dashboard is a personal view of data
  • configuration is up to the individual users
  • questions: do we need to be able to configure complete dashboards on behalf of other users (pre-configured dashboards) and should this be editable or not
  • currently sharing is not possible
  • Sara asks in chat: Can one have more than one dashboard?
    • Owen: that is theoretically possible; but no work has been done yet to support adding dashboards;
    • but it would be possible from a design point of view to have multiple dashboards;
    • so far, there is just no button to add dashboards
    • example by Sara: there are pre-configured dashboards for student staff; in addition, they might want to have and set up an own dashboard
  • that is one use case; another solution would be to share a dashboard that the other user can edit

Homework question 1

  • B + C seem to be the most preferred options
  • difference:
    • for option B, a user is starting with an empty screen and would add pre-configured widgets
    • for option C, there is a complete dashboard that is pre-configured for a user; the pre-configured dashboard is editable
  • we are aiming to release an ERM focused dashboard for Juniper
  • is to be delivered for a range of ERM use cases
  • but the goal is to have the dashboard be used across Folio; this might mean that more use cases will need to be included for a future iteration
  • Jack: going with B would meet an immediate need
  • Sara: the curated dashboard might be good to introduce student workers to Folio; when they are trained after some weeks or months, they could create their own
  • Owen: the question is, whether the curated dashboard should be kept up to date on behalf of the student worker; or whether it is created for them but can be edited
  • Jack: if there is an ERM dashboard that is shared with several people, it should never be locked
  • Kristen: dashboards would not be used so much by students; they rather work on projects
    • a dashboard as a "starter kit" would be nice
    • would not be needed with so high priority; there could be workarounds
  • acq teams come up as something to take into account for the dashboard

Homework question 3

  • be able to select the app the widgets is for first
  • have a name and description display - to know what the widget does/displays
  • Scott in chat: An App garage. Something like when you add or take away functions on an App (e.g., MS WORD) tool bar/task bar.

Homework question 4

  • yes, the group would like to be able to share widgets
  • especially if the widgets are more complicated to set up
  • this would definitely something that users would find the time to do
  • from time to time new data points will be available that need tracking; new widgets will be needed that can definitely be shared
  • would be good to be able to mark those as public or private

Homework question 5

  • how would users want to share widgets - seeing your own version of another users's widget or as a copy that the other users can build on
  • if only one option of the two is available, the group tends to option B
    • (if looking at the different options described in the homework separately)
  • otherwise, if that pre-configured dashboards will be available, it is option A, because with pre-configured dashboards option B is already covered in a way

In general

  • as a follow up to this discussion Owen and Gill will work on designs and wireframes
  • the option to delete widgets seems to be key

Chat

Von scolglaz@mtholyoke.edu an alle:  02:10 PM
Can one have more than one dashboard?

Von Scott Stangroom an alle:  02:41 PM
If widgets are to aid in work or workflow of different people, then the option to pick is the one most suited to that. Option B.

+1 Sara and Jack

Von Benjamin Ahlborn an alle:  02:46 PM
+1 for a managed Dashboard in contrast to managed Widgets -  makes things much clearer (for me)

Von Scott Stangroom an alle:  02:48 PM
An App garage. Something like when you add or take away functions on an App (e.g., MS WORD) tool bar/task bar.
