Subject: EAH Enhancements - UAT Start - due May 12
Hello EAH Developers - UCOP has updated how they share UCPath data and UCSD is adjusting our underlying structures to match. This has kept us busy so our enhancements are limited this month. For more information on the new UCOP structure see /wiki/spaces/RIF/overview.
We are releasing the below Employee Activity Hub enhancements for you to test between now and end of day May 12. If you find an issue, please email busintel@ucsd.edu with a subject line "EAH UAT due May 12" right away so we can address it prior to the Thursday May 16 production release.
Keep up with our future enhancements here: EAH Bugs and Enhancements In Progress
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.
How to perform User Acceptance Testing (UAT):
- In Cognos DEV open your report and replace the current package with the package of the same name from the Team Content > Employee Activity Hub > EAH Analytics Packages UAT folder. Run the report and select Hana QA. Do not select Hana Prod as the report will fail. Using the new package from the EAH Analytics Packages UAT folder will allow you to see the below enhancement. EAH data is the same in Hana Prod and Hana QA.
- Sign into Tableau Prod 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. Replace the original data source with the –QA data source. Using the –QA data source will allow you to see the below enhancements. EAH data is the same in Hana Prod and Hana QA.
Please use this UAT time to adjust your reports as needed prior to the Production release when your customers will be able to see any issues these enhancements cause.
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?
- What data source / package are you using?
- What results were you expecting?
Items marked with an asterisk (*) are report breaking enhancements if you have these fields in your report.
Items marked with a double asterisk (**) will break Cognos reports only if you have these fields in your report.
