EMu-Documentation

Field Museum documentation for EMu workflows, structural changes, testing and standardization.

Documentation Templates:

One set for each module:

- Standards & Workflow Documentation Template

We use this to document the discussions and decisions that we make as a user group. Some will lead to structural changes requests and others result in workflow changes. This document stays alive and is intended to be our master documentation for that module. NOTE: Jan 2022. We are currently transitioning this into the wiki section of this repo.

- Structural Changes Template

We use this to document development requests for Axiell. A pdf is created when it is sent to Axiell and the googledoc changes version.

- User Group Description Template

We use this to document the creaton of a user group and the registry entries that are necessary to define it.

- accompanying request guidelines

This is for power users when they want a new group created.

- Admin Testing Template

We use this to document the Admin level review of structural changes as returned to us from Axiell. It indicates whether developments to a module have be completed as specified in the corresponding structural changes document or not. Once signed off by the Admin team it is returned to Axiell.
