Updates

Analytics Work

• Look at the current report prototypes. What is most useful?

• Are there additional reports that would be helpful either for CDL or campuses?

• Tips:

  • Filter funds in reports to allocated funds (helps with formatting)

  • sometimes fewer columns is better in the report

  • verify your data in multiple ways to ensure you’re getting correct results

  • Reminder: Lisa Wong’s study hall Friday’s at 1pm

  • Don’t combine subject areas. The joins do not work correctly. Try starting in e-inventory which has some Acq data.

  • MAX(RCOUNT(1)) - count of how many lines in the report

• Idea for reports:

  • Expenditure per vendor across the entire system (not just CDL)

  • Expenditure per vendor (just for CDL). Ex: What are all of our Ebsco orders to renew throughout the year?

  • Start working on a report from e-inventory that links collection / portfolios to POLs
