CCS News
SEPTEMBER 5, 2014
FROM THE COMPUTER ROOM:
Enterprise Early Birds:
For libraries planning on launching Enterprise early (soft launch), please submit a WonderDesk ticket for any changes, customizations or configurations you need assistance with. We know there are some pending Enterprise configurations for some libraries that still need to be done. These will get attended to prior to soft launch.
Battery Backup Test Reminder:
As a reminder, on Sunday, 9/7/2014, we will conduct a test of the emergency battery backup procedures here at CCS. During this test the server will be offline for 30 minutes between 9:30AM and
10:00AM.
SMS Update:
SMS continues to be heavily tested. There was a delay in receiving and importing our SSL certificate, which is a key part in our SMS implementation. As of today, we have successfully imported the certificate and can now continue our testing with SMS. Once testing is complete, we will email out specifics on how to implement SMS in your Enterprise Profile. We still anticipate SMS being available at soft launch.
ProPay Issues In Enterprise:
There is still an issue where the option to pay fines with ProPay is not showing up in Enterprise. All Enterprise profiles are currently linked to E-Pay. This link will take the user to the E-Pay website , but will then kick them to the BiblioCommons website and prompt for a login. We are in communication with Sirsi to get this issue resolved and will have ProPay in place and tested ASAP.
AUTHORITIES TRAINING NEWS:
The Library of Congress has graciously invited four catalogers from CCS to attend their online NACO training. The training is a series of webinars and exercises that goes from Sept. 8-24. After the completion of this training and a period of review, these catalogers will be able to add or edit national level authority records into OCLC.
