Broadly, the reports module needs better documentation. Specifically, what 
the fields are, what they do, and how they relate.

When I used to work with Millennium you had Item records, Bib records, 
Patron Records, and Order records (and that was it).

You could use Bib records connected to item and order records, Patron 
records connected to item records, I don't recall what order records 
connected to, Item records connected to Bib records and Patron records.

I still am pretty new to Evergreen and as I create or modify reports I find 
myself often puzzled about how the different fields fit together. Maybe even 
a comprehensive list of which fields are where with definitions.

Thanks,
John

Subject: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Need community suggestions for back-filling EG 
documentation


Hola,
 
I am part of the Evergreen Oversight Board (EOB) and the Documentation 
Interest Group (DIG), and would like to get some suggestions from the EG 
community relating to documentation. The EOB would like to fund the creation 
of non-existing EG documentation. The EOB would like to get suggestions from 
the EG community of what area, workflow, or feature that currently 
completely lacks documentation the EOB should target in this project.
 
With your suggestions the EOB will be able to finish formalizing a proposal 
based on the size and complexity of the documentation area selected for this 
proposal. My expectation is that for this project only one specific 
documentation target will be addressed, but depending on the success of this 
approach, we may try again in the future.

Please let me know what areas that have never been documented you would like 
addressed.

Thanks in advance,
Yamil
