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.


Tips for Configuring DBeaver for writing queriesSharon
  • review DBeaver settings
  • special data output settings
  • looking for solution to problem of DBeaver automatically putting quotes around jsonb and name in queries
  • do others have additional helpful settings recommendations to share?

Updates and Query Demonstrations from Various Reporting Related Groups and EffortsCommunity & 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

  • Meetings are 1st Tuesday of the month, 12-1pm ET via zoom using the usual FOLIO password. Our lab sessions are open to everyone. Please bring your questions, examples, and comments about reporting and metadata.
  • We have began porting over LDP derived tables to Metadb. We have a sign up sheet. If you'd like to participate, please add your name. If you aren't in the our mm reports Slack channel, let Jennifer know so that you can be added.
    • Current pull requests for metadb derived tables:
      • holdings statistical codes
      • holdings notes
      • instance statistical codes
      • instance alternative titles
      • instance electronic access
  • For instance formats, bad data from FOLIO was encountered. Instead of a uuid for the format ids, the data was "volume nc rdacarrier". It seems this isn't the first time for such data - beware.


ERM Working Group


RM Working Group


Reporting SIG Documentation Subgroup

  • Honeysuckle documentation is live on https://docs.folio.org/docs/
  • Iris documentation is in progress, due December 15
  • Additional Context
    • The Reporting SIG has representation on the Documentation Working Group, which is building end-user documentation for https://docs.folio.org/docs/ (mostly linking to existing documentation over on GitHub)


External Statistics Working Group

  • no updates currently
  • 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
