Team Ona, Team JSI, and the Core team came together in Seattle to discuss the reporting workstream. The focus was on knowledge sharing and planning out the 3.5 release. Notes from the meeting are here: In Person Reporting Meeting Notes 27-28 Aug 2018.

Reporting Workstream Key outcomes

Team is currently in sprint 107 (first sprint after new release).  See link left for details of sprint.  Highlights: Team is identifying FHIR resources and moving forward with mCSD profile for facility information (part of integration work).  Team is also working on reporting metrics and getting reporting stack more seamless (single sign on).

Team got together in person a few weeks ago - follow along Gap Project.  List of reports they are focusing on first were highlighted.  Possible upcoming presentation for future meeting.  Feature wokstream and architecture epics highlighted in roadmap (for those who are new to this work).  See linked notes to left with further updates.

For Features - a lot of open questions about next up features (top of the table).  A lot of Business Analysis that needs to be done before diving into these, hence the focus on Reporting and Architecture at this time.

If you need clarification on any work, let Mary Jo know ad we can add more background to this call.

Update on OpenSRP mobile integration work

  • OpenSRP and OpenLMIS servers connected so we can show the transactions across systems
Craig Appl (Unlicensed) (5 min)

On hold til next meeting.  Most of the work on OpenSRP is aiming to be finalized by end of the month.  We'll have a demo experience on having a tablet app for stock on hand (linked to OpenSRP) soon!

Software Update

- The team has performed metadata alignment for tradeItems, commodityTypes and orderables so now OpenSRP has a replica of what's in UAT2
- The loss/adjustment form has been completed which is the last individual transaction item required.
- They are currently working on syncing from mobile device to OpenSRP server and expect to have that finished by the end of the week.
- The Nifi integration will be finished by next week as well.

NFR Performance Update

NFR page: Non-Functional Requirements - performance

Wesley Brown

Open questions from meeting on the 14th → please provide reviews. We are looking for more feedback

Discussed current NFR Performance use-cases with Josh. There seems to be some commonality with the current performance tests being executed on Jenkins and we should likely align the NFR Perf Use-Cases to match. This would remove the current Malawi-focused use-cases with a more generalized set of use-cases that would hopefully cover more of the overall OLMIS feature set.

*During call, looked at the use cases (see link left).  Any more to add in?

Mary Jo Question - when would we look at prioritizing use cases?  improvements?

Wes - can be going on in parallel.  We do know the results from Malawi based test, we can see some areas for improvements.  Goal is to have use cases that can be automatically tested.
