Help Center Section Review - Subjects Module

Check-in on progress.

Folks are making progress on completing this work.

Margaret’s pages led to a discussion of duplicative pages throughout modules and the need to consolidate these into one page that can be linked in multiple places. This concept is on the Future User Doc projects page. If you come across a page/sub-record that needs to be added, please do so. Will follow up during the December meeting.

Published fields in the PUI

Check-in on progress and set target goals for next meeting.

Spreadsheet

Discussed the interpretation of fields in the spreadsheet. We will take a closer look at this together as a team at a later meeting.

New Release - Documentation

Below are tickets included in the next release that require updates to the User Manual. From Jessica:

ANW 1836 – This ticket provides an option in the collection organization for a resource in the PUI to load all records at once (just a screenshot and a clarifying line in the docs)

ANW 1101 – Allows users to set the columns they want in manage top containers

ANW 1477 – Password reset functionality for users

ANW 504 – Allows an agent to be marked as “primary” for a record (clarifying line and a screenshot)

ANW 1718 – Reorder mode revamped and changes to the toolbar (this one is still getting attention so too early for screenshots)

Rebecca will follow-up with more information about these tickets in anticipation of a release coming soo.

We will provide an overview of user documentation’s work, discuss the ways in which documentation is created (with examples), discuss the intention of the documentation (vs. expectation such as a use case), and more.

Development updates

Discuss any updates as needed.
