Renaming and Deprecating

As we've adapted the EAH 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.

Step 1 - Fields to be retired.

• Employee Preferred Name fields.  Employee Preferred Name will continue to show in the Employee Name fields with the Employee Legal Name showing where no preferred name has been indicated.  Anyone using the Employee Preferred Name fields should use the Employee Name fields.
  

  • Employee Preferred Display Name AsOf replace with Employee Display Name AsOf

  • Employee Preferred Display Name Current replace with Employee Display Name Current

  • Employee Preferred First Name AsOf replace with Employee First Name AsOf

  • Employee Preferred First Name Current replace with Employee First Name Current

  • Employee Preferred Last Name AsOf replace with Employee Last Name AsOf

  • Employee Preferred Last Name Current replace with Employee Last Name Current

  • Employee Preferred Middle Name AsOf replace with Employee Middle Name AsOf 

  • Employee Preferred Middle Name Current replace with Employee Middle Name Current

  • Employee Preferred Name AsOf replace with Employee Name AsOf

  • Employee Preferred Name Current replace with Employee Name Current

  • Employee Preferred Name Prefix AsOf replace with Employee Name Prefix AsOf 

  • Employee Preferred Name Prefix Current replace with Employee Name Prefix Current

  • Employee Preferred Name Suffix Code AsOf replace with Employee Name Suffix Code AsOf

  • Employee Preferred Name Suffix Code Current replace with Employee Name Suffix Code Current

    
    

Step 4 - Field retirement.

• Employee Phone Number Current will be replaced by Employee Home Phone Number Current
• Employee Phone Number AsOf will be replaced by Employee Home Phone Number AsOf
