Acq reports in new (3.13) reporter
by Karen Young 16 Apr '25

16 Apr '25

Hello -- I semi-regularly use the "orphaned barcodes" report to locate items that are no longer associated with a viable PO (I copied my report set-up from the PINES report on the acq w <https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=acq:reports>iki). This report uses nullability -- specifically right joins. It works great in the legacy reporter. However, the new reporter doesn't appear to allow right joins: [image: image.png] I can run my old report in the new reporter, but I cannot clone it to make changes -- it fails to run and I'm pretty sure the debugging info indicates it's related to the join type. Does anybody have suggestions/ideas to make right joins work in the new reporter? Or how to retool this report to work in the new reporter?

Question for Anyone Using or Testing Background Imports
by Jennifer Pringle 06 Mar '25

06 Mar '25

Hello everyone, We're currently testing background imports in 3.14 and getting ready to turn it on in April. We're trying to figure out what interval will make sense for running the cronjob to process the background imports. If you have background imports set up or are planning to set it up, how often are you running the cronjob?

Re: EDI Ordering with Midwest Tape
by Morgan, Christine 03 Mar '25

03 Mar '25

Hi Tiffany and all, So I set this up in the Midwest provider profile but the publisher number is still not being sent in the EDI message. It seems like this should work but the UPC is still sent instead. I will continue to look at this and will report back if I find anything out. Thanks again for your help Tiffany!
