(Always) 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.


ACQ-ERM Data Model Training Part 2 (focus on ERM and areas that overlap between ACQ and ERM)Axel Dorrer, Stefan Dombek

A subgroup of the Reporting SIG will offer Part 2 of their "ACQ-ERM Data Model Training" presentation. ACQ (Acquisitions) and ERM (Electronic Resource Management) are combined for the data model training because these functional areas of FOLIO overlap. For Part 1, Scott walked us through the data model for Acquisitions on March 16.  

For Part 2, Axel and Stefan will cover ERM and Arthur will cover the overlaps between ERM and ACQ. The subgroup would appreciate feedback on the presentation from Reporting SIG members so it can be incorporated into the materials for future presentations.

The ACQ-ERM Data Model Training subgroup members are Axel Dorrer, Stefan Dombek, Eliana Lima, Scott Perry, Alexander Chen Lao, Arthur Aguilera, and Sharon Beltaine.


Comments on presentation:

  • The visual diagram of how the apps are connected is quite helpful
