Requirement Change Meeting - 7th November 2012

Present:  Manya Buchan, James Toon, Alyson Shaw, Greg Fleming, Jill Nicoll

 

Agenda:

1.  Requirement changes for Fixed Term Contract work

2.  AOCB

 

Meeting Note:

1. FTC Requirement changes:

Atira have delivered FTC functionality, but not as we would wish to implement it at UoE. 

However, the corresponding UoE changes have already been coded in the HR extract in the Beta environment.

After some discussion, it was agreed that

  • FTC flag to be retained in the extract, but to be set to blank for all rows
  • code changes applied for the FTC start date to be rolled back, i.e. to restore the previous coding for the affiliation start date
  • code changes applied for the FTC end date to be rolled back, i.e. to restore the previous coding for the affiliation end date

 

2.  The “missing persons” code:

After some discussion, Manya confirmed last week's decision on matching, ie,: 

  • remove Org Unit from the search parameters

    • this match should simply be on the Person id
    • the extract should simply take the Org Unit of the person’s most recent Assignment record

 

3.  Actions
