[Archivesspace_Users_Group] ArchivesSpace Reports Update

[library at princeofpeaceabbey.org]

I am Br Raphael from Prince of Peace Abbey and I have a problem with  
the resource location report. Could you look at the attachment and  
tell me if I have done something wrong.


Quoting "Runyon, Carolyn" <Carolyn-Runyon at utc.edu>:

> Colleagues,
>
> We know reports are an important consideration for many  
> ArchivesSpace users and wanted to provide an update on current and  
> future plans. The User Advisory Council Reports sub-team, comprised  
> of Carolyn Runyon, Nancy Enneking, Alston Cobourn, Lydia Tang, Nikki  
> Thomas, Brenda Burk, Jasmine Jones, and Laney McGlohon,  
> ArchivesSpace Technical Lead, have been working together  
> particularly over the last couple of months to review the current  
> state of the ArchivesSpace reports, including where they need to be  
> enhanced, and, in some cases, fixed or removed. For the 2.1.0  
> release, some unnecessary reports, identified by the sub-team as no  
> longer needed because they are duplications of other reports, will  
> be removed. For the 2.1.0 release, we have also put temporary  
> measures into place to ensure that there is consistent, correct, and  
> complete data in all formats of the other built-in reports.
>
> To make sure the community better understands how the reports work,  
> we’re also working on adding to both the documentation and error  
> messaging. This will help users understand how to get reports to run  
> and what to do when they encounter problems.
>
> An overhaul of the code is needed to undertake the other  
> enhancements to the reporting functionality that the sub-team and  
> Laney have been discussing, such as being able to preview a report  
> and the ability for users to dynamically create their own reports.  
> This will be on the roadmap for the fall. The JIRA tickets  
> associated with reports can be found here:  
> https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/issues/?filter=13200.
>
> Thanks for your patience with this process and let us know if you  
> have any questions. Laney and Nancy will be presenting a session on  
> Reports and Report Workarounds at the ArchivesSpace Member Forum  
> next month and we look forward to sharing and hearing more ideas in  
> this area there and in other ways very soon.
>
> All the best,
> Carolyn
