ANW-1679: "Drag and Drop" text contrast needs to be adjusted for accessibilityReady for Implementation

In the interest of accessibility, I recommend passing this request. It seems straightforward and appears to be the last contrast edit needed in the ASpace interface

ANW-1771: Calculate extent breaks on archival objectsClosed-Complete

Tried to replicate a few times in 3.4.1 and the calculate extents function does not appear to be generating any blank sub records as it did for users in 3.4.0. Suggest reaching out to see if an instance update has resolved their issue.

Couldn’t replicate. Reach out to user to see if this is still an issue.

ANW-1755: Download CSV button not exporting all displayed values in listAwaiting More Information

Ticket reporting that CSV exports from search results are not exporting all data in column results, specifically identifiers for subjects. Also diacritics not exporting correctly. Succesfully replicated this in the 3.4 test instance. Identifier issue seems to work fine for archival objects and is limited to subjects. Suggest passing but this might be fixed by ANW-1509: Search results CSV export leaves "context" field blankReady for Inclusion in Release Candidate

Awaiting more information. Resolving ANW-1509 may affect this issue. There is also a potential to expand the scope of this request to other fields that aren’t included in the CSV export.

ANW-1798: As an archivist, I would like to be able to enter/edit list-like notes (index, chronology, definition lists, etc.) in raw eadAwaiting More Information

Feature calls for a loosening of controls on embedding EAD XML in note fields. Doing so could speed data entry for advanced users, but the application might be unable to validate the XML due to the differences in in-line encoding practice between EAD 2002 and EAD3. This may also present challenges for users unfamiliar with EAD tagging. Recommend gathering more information about alternative approaches, such as importing XML snippets or CSV files into the various list subrecords in Resource record notes.

ANW-1765: Add "Close Record" button to Accession Record when in Edit modeReady for Implementation

This seems pretty straightforward. When in edit mode on an accession record, there is not a “close record” button like there is on resource records or digital objects. Without a “close record” button, users would have to either click the back button or click the accession title in the breadcrumbs. Recommend passing.

Pass

@Alexander Duryee

ANW-1742: Report invalid data in the UIReady for Implementation

Was unclear if scope of ticket was just validation against the ASpace schema, or included XML validation within notes. The ticket was for validating against the internal schema. This seems straightforward to implement and useful for system managers.

Pass and expand scope of ticket to include XML validation

Pass
