Enforce an order to deletion for Data Import Profiles (Data Tracker Topic)All

Discussed in 2024-2-28 Data Import Subgroup meeting and  2024-1-31 Data Import Subgroup meeting

Issue: When a user deletes a job profile without unlinking all the profiles in the job, then that user cannot delete the associated profiles. It is necessary to unlink all profiles before deleting the job.



Warning or error to stop the job when a job doesn't contain any action profiles (Data Tracker Topic)Sara Coglazier, Jenn Colt, Christie Thomas

Discussed in 2024-2-28 Data Import Subgroup meeting

Issue: A job will appear to run even though there are no actions. Found in particular with the 361 and 365 issues where action profiles were missing.



Ability to change the link to a profile rather than unlink and then link (Data Tracker Topic)


Jennifer Eustis

Discussed in 2024-2-28 Data Import Subgroup meeting

Issue: Right now, it is necessary to unlink and then link to a new profile. It would be great to have the option to also be able to change the link if you just need to link to a different profile.



Enhance Electronic Access (856) subfield mappings to include non public note, access, and terms governing access (Data Tracker Topic)Jennifer EustisIssue: The mapping for the MARC 856 was done almost 2-3 years ago. It is limited. This was discussed at last year's WOLFCon and in a MM SIG and was approved to expand functionality to 856 $x, $7, and $n. UIIN-2579 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Ability to pull vendor account number from POL when importing EDIFACT invoices (Data Tracker Topic)Kimberly Pamplin

Discussed in lab.

Issue: In our previous system the vendor account number lived at the PO/Invoice level. Now it is on the POL/invoice line. I have not found a way when loading EDIFACT invoice files to draw this directly from the POL or to retrieve it from the vendor file. This means for each invoice we must put in all of the vendor account numbers manually, which adds up and is prone to error. If there is a way that data import could pull this value from the POL it would save so much time in our processing.



Ensure consistency of how blank indicators and marc fields and subfields appears in mappings and profiles across Data Export, Data Import, Bulk Edit, and quickMarcJennifer Eustis

Discussed in Bulk Edit.

Issue: Data Import displays blanks with a space. Quickmarc is a slash. Bulk Edit is designing editing of MARC srs bibs where MARC fields and subfields mappings look different from Data Imports (thinking of Marc Modifications) and so on. To avoid confusion, it'd be great to make sure that blank indicators and how marc fields and subfields are mapped in bulk edit, data import, and data export are done in a consistent way.
