Specification[edit]

Status: in specification

Schedule: R3.5

Pre-conditions[edit]

  • Extended publication and modification workflow (e.g. depositor can only submit an item when s/he creates it)
  • the following is only true for users, which have only moderator privileges (if they also have depositor rights, they have two workspaces a depositor one and a moderator one)

Moderator Workspace[edit]

  • moderator can see all items, which s/he has privilege as moderator
  • moderator can restrict the view on a specific collection and to a specific organizational unit or any child of the organizational unit
Shall we only take the org units from context (Problem: items added for other org units are lost in space, because they stay submitted and are never displayed in Moderator Workspace) ? --Haarlaender 12:07, 27 May 2008 (CEST)
Workarround: Filter by users instead of org units (User name should be related to org unit) ?? --Haarlaender 12:07, 27 May 2008 (CEST)
Filters at present do not allow for org units. Items which are submitted are not indexed for searching in build 0.159. For first implementation of moderator workspace the constraints are: users can filter items by collection only. --Natasa 10:34, 28 May 2008 (CEST)
Correction: the filter for org units can be used only when status "released" is selected. --Natasa 10:49, 28 May 2008 (CEST)
For 3.5 a critical issue is filter for a certain OU or give all items from context without OU filter. --Nicole 12:16, 29 May 2008 (CEST)
  • the default sorting is descending by date of creation/last change of the item, so that the newest entry is listed first

Feedback from Karin, 29.5.08[edit]

  • depositor must be able to edit submitted items.
  • personal depositor accounts, 1 moderator account per department and in addition a library account

Questions/Needs of a moderator of the MPIPL[edit]

Pre-conditions:

  • current simple WF (items can only be directly released), so the moderator can only see released items
  • the following is only true for users, which have only moderator privileges (if they also have depositor rights, they have two workspaces a depositor one and a moderator)

I think currently we do not have separate depositor and moderator workspace, but just one workspace--Ulla 16:20, 6 May 2008 (CEST) Right, but in future it should be so. :-) --Nicole 17:05, 7 May 2008 (CEST)

Not certain, I would opt for 2 workspaces already now or somehow then we have to prevent that moderators are not depositors. --Natasa 10:36, 28 May 2008 (CEST)

Moderator WS[edit]

  • Which items have been entered for the MPIPL?

i.e. have at least one org unit from MPIPL attached--Ulla 16:20, 6 May 2008 (CEST) or better: which have at least MPIPL or a child of the MPIPL --Nicole 17:05, 7 May 2008 (CEST)

  • Which items have been entered for a special department/project of the MPIPL?
previous two are not possible, as filters are not so reach as search possibilities. Submitted items are not released and therefore are not indexed for searching in build 0.159. We have to check if this is possible in last FW builds. --Natasa 10:41, 28 May 2008 (CEST)
  • Show only the items, which I didn't check yet (for metadata quality reasons), show me the items I have checked yet, show me all items.
Translated, this would mean 3 options: a) show me items in status submitted in selected collection for which current user is a moderator; b) show me items in status released in selected collection for which current user is a moderator; c) show me all items (both submitted, released status) in selected collection for which current user is a moderator --Natasa 10:41, 28 May 2008 (CEST)


Proposal: show all items which have not been modified, show all items which have been modified. (User has no possibility to mark items as "checked")--Ulla 16:20, 6 May 2008 (CEST)

Modified by currently logged-in user, right? That would be possible with the filter actually. --Natasa 16:30, 6 May 2008 (CEST)
The previous discussion is no longer valid, as we decided to go for standard modification workflow (i.e. submit->release)
  • It should be possible to sort the item list by date of creation of the item. The newest item should be listed first.

In addition, sort by date of last modification.--Ulla 16:20, 6 May 2008 (CEST)

correction - would propose only sort by date of last modification, this is the valid date - while item is in status pending users can create it on date A and submit it on date D. Between A and D there may be several modifications of the item by the depositor while in status pending. Therefore my proposal is only to take care of the date of last modification. The same is if moderator wants to see items in "released" state. --Natasa 10:41, 28 May 2008 (CEST)

Administrative Search[edit]

= Future development--Ulla 16:20, 6 May 2008 (CEST)

  • Give all items, that have a specific field not filled (e.g. file locator, abstract)
  • give me all items with at least one full text attached
  • give me all items, which have no full text attached

maybe this can be integrated already in advanced search?--Ulla 16:20, 6 May 2008 (CEST)

  • give me all items, which have a full text with private access level
  • give me all items, which have a full text with public access level
