Review of PC's original request:

Recommend to PC by :

Solutions to address immediate data integrity problems. Solutions can involve architecture, testing plans, development guidelines, Definition of Done, documentation, and analysis of SRS design/intended use, etc...
Strategy to prevent data integrity issues from arising again.
Strategy to build trust in FOLIO SRS (and related) data integrity

Improving confidence in DI:
- Logging
- Ability to track data through the DI flow
- Error messaging in all apps that interact with MARC
  - Users lose confidence when told to ignore error messages
- Logs report incorrect information
What is the canonical version of the database?
- Log says "created SRS record"
- SRS full of unused, incorrect records
Ordering of MARC and inventory steps in a job can negate later update
Visual would make this easier to understand
Data integrity issues
- ie, deleting instance status updated date
- issues created in one release live on in the data to future releases even if the issue is fixed
Documentation still needed
- technical docs
- user docs

Map of data flow was suggested last meeting

Creation of map with
- data flow
- pain points
- affected user roles/people who use X data
Ideal workflow vs what's there now vs design?
Connected visualizations to allow depth at given waypoints
Each pick an area and see how they connect
- DI where it creates export in SRS storage, what comes out?
How can we verify what the data looks like with LDP/API? Is this adequate? Also use data export as verification, or try to.
- What would it mean to see the database? What is LDP/API missing, if anything?
  - Upgrade to MetaDB should make it a better tool for this

Next steps

How to be comprehensive
How to ensure it is acted upon
High level view, with things called out and highlighted
Not looking for a bug for each thing, but something more systemic
Next meeting start one focused aspect together?
- Work on higher level view together
- Look at the tool together
