Meeting Agenda
Notetaker: Erin
Intro Discussion
- Erin has asked Karen Newbery to put out a call to the FOLIO Implementers Group to encourage 2020 participants to send someone to join the UM SIG
- Discussion of how we can communicate work outwards so folks can see what actually is working. No real consensus as to what might be helpful.
Notes:
Multiple external IDs: https://issues.folio.org/browse/UIU-1036
- Discussion of proposal to add a table to settings, and then have ID info populated in the extended information accordion
- General consensus - people think it's a good proposal, and appropriate.
- Additions – scenario about bulk loading
- Patty will take to Cate to get feedback on User Stories and move into the development process.
Discuss searching user names with diacritics.
- Some Jiras regarding diacritics: https://issues.folio.org/browse/UISE-69
- https://issues.folio.org/browse/UISE-70
- Jana - colleague gave her feedback about search for "Müller" (w/umlaut) vs "Mueller" / "Muller" etc. and it didn't behave as expected.
- Expect Müller even if you type u, or ue.
- Björn has tried this in their test system, and it seems to work?
- Search is working with a diacritics
- Björn is not sure what is making this work. The records they have have been added manually through the GUI.
- Do you want all the results to come back interfiled? Yes.
- Patty - can we write some test cases with these examples? There is a bugfest coming in a few weeks (Sept 16 - Sept 20). Patty will write test cases for the next bug fest, and talk to Anton about including them.
- Patty will report back to us next week on status of this.
- Our character set - UTF-8
- Shanghai Public Library is joining FOLIO – that's cool.
Protecting User Records
- Rankings right now seem reasonable to people - not sure at Cornell if they use this.
- Uschi Klute might now more about experience with this feature.
- Patty - there's an example from Inventory of how they use data source fields, example, if a record comes from MARC, you can't edit it in Inventory.
- Let's call this "protecting" records rather than "freezing"
- Patty will write user stories about freezing a record.
- mod-user-import-bl and mod-user-import? which APIs are affected
- Michelle suggests thin thread with flag – Patty will focus on that for user story.
Proposed meeting agenda:
- Discuss freezing user records, as brought up in this JIRA ticket: https://issues.folio.org/browse/UXPROD-242
our meeting notes say we should look at this ticket before the meeting. - Discuss searching user names with diacritics.
- Some Jiras regarding diacritics: https://issues.folio.org/browse/UISE-69
- https://issues.folio.org/browse/UISE-70
- Multiple external IDs: https://issues.folio.org/browse/UIU-1036
