[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Inventory module

[Hardy, Elaine]

The PINES consortium has developed a requirements doc for an inventory
module. If you would like me to post it, let me know.

Hello,

SCLENDS has developed some workflows and very rough specs for inventory
functionality.  We've passed it around to a few other entities in the
community and although its not quite ready for prime time we've had
positive interest in making it the blueprint of an Evergreen inventory
component.  We started with taking some extremely experienced inventory
staff and having them design their dream system and I worked at keeping it
married to existing Evergreen infrastructure to keep it realistic.

After the New Years I'm going to put some more effort into finding
partners for the work and funding.  We still need more input and eyes on
it of course before we're at the funding stage but but I think there is
interest.  I'll certainly include you if you like.

projects that would benefit all of our members and other Evergreen
libraries, we were thinking about an inventory module. Specifically, we're
looking for a module that would allow for member libraries to conduct
thorough inventories and produce reports of missing items, etc., without
requiring intervention of a systems administrator. I hope that makes
sense!
