- The committee recommends adding the following new reports.
- Accession Receipt Report
- Accession Record Report
- Shelflist Report
- Subject with Linked Records Report
- The committee recommends considering the adoption of a limited set of new formatting requirements:
- A report will be able to be canceled after it has started and before it has completed.
- Data exported as CSV must be in tabular format so as to allow archivists the ability to sort, filter, edit, and format the exported data and to enable the creation of summary charts and tables.
- Report data exported as HTML must exclude HTML styles and classes, including colors, fonts, etc, thereby enabling easier use of data in a variety of content management systems.
- Enumeration identifiers should be automatically translated to the enumeration values. For example, if the user wants the extent type to display, the number 277 should be automatically translated to “linear feet” in the resulting export.
- Brackets, quotation marks, commas, and null values should be removed from reported identifier fields, including accession, resource, and digital object identifiers. Instead, subfields should be separated by hyphens, e.g. ABC123-DEF456-GHI789-JKL123.
- Report data exported in PDF and RTF formats must include footers that feature the title of the report, the date the report was generated, and the page number.
- Report data exported in PDF, RTF, and HTML formats must use appropriate use heading tags (h1, h2, etc.) to facilitate accessibility.
