Product Council

Jennifer

2023-12-07 Product Council Meeting Agenda and Notes. On Dec. 14th the Product Council, the SIG conveners will have their quarterly meeting with the PC. All are welcome to attend. This SIG quarterly meeting will be scheduled at different times to accommodate different time zones. More information on that to come. The scope of the Metadata Management SIG was discussed. MM SIG will take on the work of entity management and is creating a new working group on linked data.

Announcements/Reminders

Sharon

Impacts of New Fields and Features

  • Are there any new fields or features we should know about from any of the functional areas that may impact reporting?

    • New

    • From Recent Meetings

      • We will be getting new data fields for the Open Access app - more details coming

      • Timezone format is not consistent across the tables in FOLIO, which impacts LDP and Metadb

        • Nassib confirmed that he does not change timezone settings as part of the ETL with the LDP/Metadb software, so whatever is in FOLIO is what we get in LDP/Metadb

        • RFC-3339 sitting with TC about always representing times as an ISO date format https://github.com/folio-org/rfcs/pull/13

      • Invoices will have a fiscal year assigned. You will be able to process an invoice in a past fiscal year (with Poppy) and in a future fiscal year (after Poppy)

      • There is a proposal to deprecate the donor field in the POL and replace it with an Organization type of donor in Quesnelia.  This will also be linked to inventory in a future release as well.

      • (Jennifer Eustis) from MM: proposal for a new field for item source (New field in the item record: Source ID - Functional analysis)

      • (Stefan Dombek) feature with Orchid: in the module audit, we have logs for orders and order lines and snapshot for create, edit, and delete records (unfortunately not for fiscal year rollover, just create/edit/delete; need to know the date of your FYO and then report based on that) (UXPROD-3215: Display a history of edits for the Order and Order line recordsClosed)

      • (Jennifer Eustis) request for more helpful info when there are duplicate UUIDs during data import (MDEXP-625: Report affected instance when export contains negative number of failed recordsClosed)

FOLIO Analytics Update

  • FOLIO Analytics 1.7 for Poppy was released, but there is a delay in the release for FOLIO Poppy

  • institutions may want to wait until FOLIO Poppy is released to implement FOLIO Analytics 1.7

 

Metadb Update

  • see important bug announcement for Metadb

  • https://github.com/metadb-project/metadb/issues/58

  • from Nassib: It is recommend that users not rely on transformed tables that are generated from any table containing more than one jsonb column. The most likely fix for this bug in the short term is that such transformed tables will be removed.

  • (from Tod) There should be a way to interrogate the Postgresql schemata to find out which tables have more than one JSONB column

    • can use the `information_schema.columns` view

  • Only one table known so far re: #58: folio_entities_links.instance_authority_linking_rule

 

Upcoming meeting topics (tentative)

  • Reporting Documentation Update for Poppy (January) 

  • Metadb version 1.2 release overview (February)

  • Metadb Development Meeting at January 3rd at 11am ET - send note to Nassib if you would like to join

 

Any new members?
