Notes about the Google sheet:
MARC Import last reviewed - default is 7/15/2013
Steps taken by the 2019-2020 TAC Metadata Standards subgroup in reviewing the published import/export mappings.
Import testing: Import test records (sandbox, test instance) and confirm behavior/note discrepancies.
Export behavior: Post full records via API, export records and confirm behavior/note discrepancies.
Desired outcomes:
*An updated set of MARCXML and EAD import/export mappings
*A process for more easily keeping these more up-to-date

Import Testing
Log in to sandbox. Create a repository if necessary. Create a background import job, choose the record type, and the test file. Run the import. Review the desired field. If needed, modify the test file to add/subtract/edit fields, commit to repo, and re-import.
On the export mappings google doc, fill in the review columns as follows:
Reviewer | Date | AS version | Test record used | Works as described? (Y/N) | Notes / Further Actions | Links |
(your initials) | (today's date) | (version, and if applicable instance, e.g. sandbox) | (github link to specific version of record used) | (did the fields import as described in the mapping?) | (if not, or if there are other issues, describe them) | (links as needed; to tickets, standards, etc) |
