Requested by: Aaron Heck
Status: Rejected
Requires a new CMS Component?: No
Requires New Functionality?: Yes
Description
Automation of the staff directories on staff sites with the UBC directory, or other authoritative information source. This would need to be a hybrid so that some entries are fixed because they come from an outside source, but some are mallable/editable because they’ve been added directly through the site. Authoritative information sources could be the directory, EAD, etc. Anything with an authoritative source should be “roughed in” for a profile page.
[More investigation needed re: feasibility with Workday source data. Placing on-hold until more details emerge re: Workday + UBC EDI https://cio.ubc.ca/enterprise-projects#edi]
[Update: Marking as rejection. With Workday + UBC EDI, better approach would be to rewrite CMS Directory plugin. Will revisit this as a formal project in the future.]
