For sharing templates in Alma Analytics:

o   the community shared folder for UC is found in shared folders /alma /community /reports /consortia /ucs

o   within that, there is an "ILL and Resource Sharing" folder that Alison made & can be used to share these reports

o   you can edit, copy, move, run reports in the 'community' folder

o   the "01UCS_Network" are templates created/stored in the NZ Alma Analytics folder

o   the "SILS Ops Center" (Gem and Alison) can create reports & we can run them on our IZ data; we cannot place or edit templates in that folder.

Anonymization:

o   Here are two ExL docs about anonymizing analytics: 

§  https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Product_Documentation/010Alma_Online_Help_(English)/080Analytics/010Introduction/The_Basics_of_Working_with_Analytics/Anonymizing_Alma_Analytics_Report_Details

§  https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Product_Documentation/010Alma_Online_Help_(English)/030Fulfillment/080Configuring_Fulfillment/080General/Configuring_Fulfillment_Jobs#Configuring_Anonymization

o   This job is run on the IZ analytics data and is not reversible

o   There does appear to be a "Anonymize resource sharing requests " from the second link that may negatively impact AFN reports

NZ Analytics:

o   The NZ Analytics are linked to all IZ Analytics - aka, almost all (possibly all) IZ Analytics data is visible within NZ Analytics

o   Option chosen was to hide user details within the NZ Analytics (see the first link " Anonymizing Analytics Report Details " in the previous paragraph), so the NZ no longer sees any IZ user data.

Borrowing Report Templates:

o   https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1D6RNRWwbo0lNSZEwKQuyBLJyqvhWhHSC

 

o   https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1D6RNRWwbo0lNSZEwKQuyBLJyqvhWhHSC

o  https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17X5Tpotz90s0bvOAQXZfdgNEoauVAbikHuil2fdx2o4/edit#gid=422727323  

o   https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DH0ZlIsy88ci8DZOxlKAYSgzimP76XL8RVeqYw7bH74/edit#gid=2060746116

o   She submitted a case to ExL about this discrepancy and asked how a template for getting afn lending data out of IZ Analytics could be done.


Anonymization may not be what is causing some institutions data to be wrong because UCI, UCR, and UCB have anonymization on but only UCI is getting good data


@Sandra Farfan-Gracia will meet with Alison on 6/14 and setup a meeting with the whole group
