8:00 – 4:00 ESSO

  • Meeting with Chris, Lenny, Carla and Tom(?). Started out by discussing fixes, but became a session discussing how to make the new Financial Assistant. Over the next week, the Pit Crew will put together a spreadsheet that contains everything that they need to make a new entry in a table define by a budget center. Adding a line is essentially adding a MIPR (kind of). Adding a new line, can duplicate some or all of the previous line. Adding a MIPR addendum, for example, would duplicate the entire line except for obligation, outlay, and date. This data all goes back into the existing tables in the database. 
  • One modification of the current bugs/requests – make it so contract information in the finding request dropdown maps only to the associated MIPR.
  • Updated the servers with monitoring software and also updated their listings.
  • Made sure that the VISIBILITY code works for Dimitri’s visit.
  • Dimitri came by and we walked through an FP demo,  most of the VISIBILITY data visualization piece, hitting a lot of tangents along the way. He thinks he might find it useful.
  • And I need to update my database. visibility_scripting is out of date and there is no alerts DB.
