Hi all,
I'm not sure who specifically to send this to so I'm sending it to the entire list.
I'm working on documenting the new permissions. I need some help with additional details for the acquisitions permissions:
* budget_add_del Add and delete budgets (but can't modify budgets) * budget_manage Manage budgets * budget_modify Modify budget (can't create lines but can modify existing ones)
mmm... not sure, maybe "manage budget" is a mistake (was there at some point, is useless now). Could you file a bug & affect if to jeanandre.santoni@biblibre.com please ?
* contracts_manage Manage contracts
You can define contracts (with a start and enddate) attached to booksellers. When you create a basket, you can say it's related to contract X. At the end of the year, you'll be able to see "how much did I spend on contract X". In france, contract sometimes have a minimum and a maximum yearly amount. The report does not exist yet, but at least the data is here (and a SQL report can be builded easily)
* group_manage Manage orders & basketgroups
a basket group is a ... group of basket. In some libraries, you have X buyers that create baskets, and, at the end of the month, someone group them in a single "basket group" that is sent to the bookseller. In some libraries, when a buyer closes a basket, a basketgroup can be created as 1basket = 1basketgroup. Both behaviours are also possible in new_acq : create a basketgroup when closing the basket, or group baskets. Also note that the pdf printing comes in 2 flavours : - layout2pages => page 1 is the header, then pages 2+ show all order lines, ordered by isbn (not grouped by basket) - layout3pages => page 1 is the header, page 2 the summary of all baskets, then pages 3+ are all baskets, one after the other.
* order_manage Manage orders & basket
to create orders and basket
* order_receive Manage orders & basket
??? is it a typo ? It's for recieving orders.
* period_manage Manage periods
deal with root budgets (should not be "period")
* planning_manage Manage budget plannings
deal with budget plannings. Once you have entered your budgets, you can see the list button top/right, that displays branches/itemtype/month/any authorised value used in budgets. If you click on one of this button, you'll be able to "plan" how much you plan to spend for each budget. 2 behaviours here : - if budget is not locked = you can enter what you PLAN (expect/hope/want) to do - if budget is locked = you see what you planned to do and what you do in fact. In a very near future, we may split those 2 screens for better readability. And (maybe it's already done, I don't remember), if you didn't plan anything, you should not see 0.00 / 123.45 (0.00 => planned 123.45 => spent)
* vendors_manage Manage vendors
vendors = booksellers
Most importantly - I need clarification on what "Manage" entails for everything. Next, both order_manage and order_receive have the same description - what's the diff between the two?
bug in the description
Regarding the 2 budget permissions - Add & Delete makes sense, Modify makes sense - what then do you need the Manage permission for? What do you get to do when Managing that you can't do with the other two.
probably a bug then...
What is a basket group? What is a period? What is a budget planning?
all of this answered previously isn't it ? -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc Tel : (33) 4 91 81 35 08
