Recruiting New Query Developers

  • The Reporting SIG is always on the look-out for new query developers. Please let us know if you are interested in doing query development or if there are others at your institution who might be a good fit.



Cluster Ranking

New Report Clusters are added on a regular basis, so it is important to make sure your institution is reviewing these clusters and ranking them to establish report development priorities. If you rank reports for your institution, please follow the instructions below. If someone else ranks, please pass this information along to that person so your institution's vote can be included.

  • Action =>> Please review Reporting SIG-All Report Clusters (57 issues) in JIRA and RANK each report cluster for your institution (R1-R5)

  • For reporting, institutions only need to rank the UXPROD Report Cluster JIRA issues. All reporting requirements, which are captured in REP-XXX issues, roll up to the UXPROD Report Clusters. Report clusters cover one or more report (REP-XXX issue) requirements.



Update LDP implementers grid

Updates and Query Demonstrations from Various Reporting Related Groups and Efforts

Community & Coordination, Reporting Subgroup Leads

Project updates

Reporting development is using small subgroups to address priorities and complete work on report queries.  Each week, these groups will share reports/queries with the Reporting SIG.  Reporting development team leads are encouraged to enter a summary of their work group activities below.

RA/UM Working Group



MM Working Group



ERM Working Group



RM Working Group

  • reviewed fund_expenditures_summary; will consider turning this into fund_expenditure_summary_by_expense_class

  • created fund_expenditures_by_po_line

  • several queries for RM completed, but still need documentation, testing, and review

  • working on queries for the 1.2 FOLIO Analytics release

  • for latest updates, see RM Prototype and Query Development Status



Reporting SIG Documentation Subgroup

  • No changes

  • Additional Context



External Statistics Working Group

  • no updates currently

  • ACRL query set included in FOLIO-Analytics 1.1 release

  • new organizational/tracking scheme for JIRA, with pointers to queries in folio-analytics repository

  • New organizational structure for External Statistics reports

    • external statistics reports (e.g., ACRL) typically require running queries from different functional reporting areas

    • these reports will be captured in JIRA under one UXPROD-XXXX report cluster issue, then the descriptions will point to each of the queries required to run them on the folio-analytics repository

    • institutions will need to rank each of these 8 new UXPROD-XXXX report cluster issues

    • each reporting development team will take responsibility for the queries in their area for the external statistics clusters



Product Council





For all recent work on FOLIO Reporting SQL development:
