Updates from the PC

Capacity planning updates

PC is working on capacity planning for Q1 release (Bellas). Looking at priorities and updates. Supporting Chalmers as first implementer. Other early implementers are now looking at fiscal year 2021 because of the need for additional functionality that has not yet been developed. Functionality is still being prioritized. The ERM functionality may be an option for a partial early implementation.

Q4: Weekly status report and links to all features included.

Licenses - will be in Q4 (Astor) release (January 14). Represents licenses and license properties. There will be a hierarchy with parent licenses. License properties = License terms. They will be searchable and will be able to tie them to workflows to do some automation. Custom properties will be able to be added to licenses.

Agreements (formerly ERM) = resource(s) + license + context (how/why are we getting access to this).  "ERM" spans more than just this app. Agreements is made up of Agreements and E-resources. E-resources can be used to search for all resources the system knows about, both subscribed and not (through connections to kb(s)). Uses will have the option to add whole packages as an agreement or each individual title within the package as a separate agreement.

Share data for testing! Owen has provided a Google folder for you to drop off data: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1pK0ghLtys7oijNBq7etqrmgMKtkd92JH
Any format would be good but something like KBART would be preferable.
