Hello FINAH Developers - The below fields are now available for you in Hana QA.  If you find an issue, please email busintel@ucsd.edu prior to end of day Monday, August 28 so we can address it before the Thursday migration to Production.

Due to the Cognos upgrade the August UAT period will be extended until Monday, August 28, after all of the Cognos environment have been upgraded.

Renaming and Deprecating

As we've adapted the AH views to your needs, we have found changing field names is painful for both report developers and our team due to the name change breaking reports, data integrations and packages / data sources.  In an effort to avoid this pain, we are going to introduce a new name change strategy. 

1. ITS-BIA will release new fields with the revised field name in the views that contain the field to be renamed, or where a view is to be renamed ITS-BIA will release as a new view the view with the revised name.

2. ITS-BIA will allow a transition period for report developers to repoint their reports at the new fields / views.

3. ITS-BIA will remove the data from the old fields / views and allow a second transition period.  This will not break the report but will highlight where the fields / views are still in use as they will become blank.

4. ITS-BIA will deprecate the fields / views.  Any reports the have not transitioned by this point will break.

We'll be using this strategy on the following items that require name changes. 

In the August release we have added new fields in preparation for replacing the existing fields.  We are replacing the current field because we have other User fields and the new names in FINAH will differentiate TE Users from EAH Users.
