Current development (Orchid)

Agenda:

- Bugfest
  - Some folks are just starting to test
  - Some log messages are still odd (and will not be fixed until Poppy)
  - A-M ask Kitfox to run the cleanup script from MODSOURCE-585 - Getting issue details... STATUS on Orchid Bugfest a couple times, to see if we clean out any orphan SRS records (which may be messing with matches) (Pending - see BF-465 - Getting issue details... STATUS )
- Orders UAT
  - Took care of some questions and issues raised in the Slack channel, e.g. https://folio-project.slack.com/archives/CA39M62BZ/p1678129160676939
  - Backend bug related to PO prefixes and suffixes permissions
  - Additional feedback?
    - So far, mostly OK, though some hurdles at the beginning
    - A-M will add to known issues on the UAT form: If create an open order with Create inventory = None, but with Inventory actions in the job profile, Inventory records will be created, but the POL links and receiving pieces will not be.
  - Some UI changes underway, based on recent discussions; will be included in Orchid release
    - Very confusing to look at the changes one by one
    - Hopefully will be more clear to the users after they are all in place
    - UI and handling logic changes will be made in the next couple of weeks and will roll out to the UAT site within a day or two after the Snapshot change, and to Orchid Bugfest within a week or so after the Snapshot change
  - A-M will consolidate the feedback next week and discuss with subgroup; so far, no showstoppers
- Review/confirm mockup for revised log for multiple holdings/items
  - See slide deck - just the log JSON for today
    - Holdings and Item JSON screens look fine; not confusing
  - Is there a non-edge use case for trying to create/update multiple holdings with the same perm loc from the same MARC Bib?

Upcoming meetings/agenda topics:

15 March
- Helpful? FOLIO Production Library Import Statistics
- Review the final requirements for multi holdings/items
- Review work from log subgroup and proposed updates in Poppy
- Review of ISRI multiple profile UAT, Orders UAT, Bugfest
22 March
- Discuss Poppy scope
- Discuss/review mockups for MARC updates refinements
Misc
- POL/VRN matching
  - For invoices, we only consider open POs
  - For Instance, Holdings, Items, we currently (Orchid and before) only consider open POs. Should we change the Inventory matching logic to allow matching on closed POs as well?
- Deleting outdated versions of SRS records
  - Can we define a cutoff date? 90 days ago? 1 year ago?
    - Different for records that are used during import and then not consulted again? (e.g. EDIFACT invoices, MARC bibs that only create/update orders, holdings, items)
  - Effects on the import log
- OCLC number cleanup
  - Confirm 035 structure, aim for it to be consistent across all FOLIO tenants
- Downloading log info
  - Lots of interest, especially for errors
  - Including identifiers for everything
  - What would UI look like?
  - What would output look like?
- Variation between PTF and production library performance results - why?

Log

Christie Thomas (she/her) to Everyone 1:55 PM
It would be great if these transaction only records could not be saved and definitely not saved as actual.
From a log perspective I don’t think that we need to know anything about the record that is created as a part of the back end processing. In the log I only care about the sis record that is connected to the instance.
I have to leave for another meeting. Thank you for the update.

Taylor Smith to Everyone 2:02 PM
thanks!
