Mail List Change
This month BIA will start migrating our mail lists out of Emma and into Google Groups. Our goal is to improve our communication efficiency and allow you all to benefit from announcements made by source systems when relevant. This will require us to manually add everyone from the current list to the new Google Group. You will all receive a notification that you have been added. If you are member of multiple BIA mail lists then you will be notified as you are added to each new one. We apologize for the extra email notifications.
Using Google Groups you will still be able to leave and join our mail lists. We will be adding instructions to our collab site.
Your Requested Enhancements!
Items marked with an asterisk (*) are report breaking enhancements if you have these fields in your report.
UAT - Customer Service Reminder
Data in UAT is not ready to be shared with end customers, is not considered completely validated and can change suddenly. For optimal customer satisfaction, do not connect your production solutions to packages / data sources that are in UAT. If you choose to share UAT items with end customer, be explicit that the data and report is in UAT and can change suddenly or be broken by UAT changes.
A duty cycle has been implemented for Hana QA. During this time, Hana QA will not be available. Please schedule your UAT work around this duty cycle.
- Hana QA will not be available from 7pm-5am nightly
- Hana QA will not be available Saturday and Sunday
- Data loads will occur from 5am-10am on weekdays
Follow our Enhancement User Acceptance Testing (UAT) Steps
- Cognos: Use the packages in Cognos DEV > Student Activity Hub > Student Activity Hub Packages UAT to build your report and select Hana QA. Do not select Hana Prod as the report will fail. Using Hana QA will allow you to see the below enhancements with Production data.
- Tableau: Sign into Tableau on your Tableau desktop tool and open your report. Add a new data source with the same name and -QA at the end of the title. Using this data source will allow you to see the below enhancements with Production data.
- Hana QA: SAH data in Hana QA is production data loaded daily, just like in Hana PROD.
If you find an issue, please include in your email to busintel@ucsd.edu the following:
- What browser are you using?
- What environment are you using? Cognos DEV, QA or PROD? Or Tableau?
- What data source / package are you using?
- What results were you expecting?
Reminder: QA data sources will be deleted the Friday after the enhancements are migrated to Production.
