Discussion of Tasks of the Reporting SIG

  • we want to interact more closely with the developers, even starting before development

  • we want to compile a list of reports, remove redundancies in the Master Spreadsheet

  • we need all reports in the Spreadsheet, but a more high level document is helpful to interact with the developers; define a minimum number of predefined reports

  •  we need to be able to write reports ourselves and share them with others ; no system is capable of have all reports canned and ready to use (predefined)

  • for this, we need to have access to the data, i.e. to the Reporting Database.

  • question about real time data: we also need to have access to real time data for some reports.

  • want to compile data fields we need ; want to make a first serve in designing the Reporting Database

  • next step should be to have developers in the SIG

  • PC should aks questions, what are they looking for from us ?

Action items

George will create a first serve for a Master List of Reports, to be discussed in the group
Ingolf will create a raw sketch of a future Reporting Database : database tables, what data should they contain, how can the data be arranged ? (...but we need all data...)
@Ingolf Kuss: contact Charlotte for contact to developers or arise that point in the PC
@Ingolf Kuss: ask Christine again for the SOAS demo.
