Hello all,
Starting next week FLO and Index Data will be doing a "dry run" of each library's final data load. This means we're practicing loading fresh data before the real deal to see how long that takes and if we run into any issues. As part of this process we'll be clearing the Inventory, Users, Organizations, Agreements, and Licenses apps out prior to doing the reload. You won't be able to use the system during your dry run week, so please use the FLO shared sandbox https://flo-test.folio.indexdata.com/ if you need to use that time for training. Reference data, AKA the data found in the Settings app, will not be wiped out. I'll keep you posted on our progress as we go.
Dry Run Schedule:
- Week of April 14th - Stonehill College - Week of April 21st - New England Conservatory - Week of April 28th - MassArt, MFA, and Lesley University
P.S. Another benefit of the dry run is it gives us a chance to fix any outstanding issues on the issue tracker https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xX9bw-n8CFZnmU7iF8C7qSQfmPaevK7iORyqMWGOXHg/edit?gid=0#gid=0. You should also be able to see the results of any cleanup work done since the last time we loaded your data.
