Everyone -
In preparation for the BlueCloud Analytics presentation on the 22nd at the Annual Meeting, I would be interested in hearing from the attendees about any particular reports they haven't been able to run in WorkFlows and are hoping to be able to create in Analytics.
Please send these report ideas/needs directly to me at : kate.boyle(a)railslibraries.info<mailto:kate.boyle@railslibraries.info> Thank you and I hope to see you next week.

SirsiDynix has fixed the problem with transaction statistics and the June stats are now available on the support site:
https://support.swanlibraries.net/content/2016-sirsidynix-stats
As always the daily stats will come later. This also means that statistics reports you run yourself in WorkFlows should now be correct. Please let us know if you spot any errors, and thanks again for your patience!

The search results display in Enterprise is no longer showing your local holdings like it did when we introduced the new themes. We are working with SirsiDynix to fix the problem, so please watch your email for a follow-up SWANcom. Thanks for your patience!

Everyone -
We are in the process of posting Checkouts, Renewals, and Hold statistics to the SWAN website for the month of June. https://support.swanlibraries.net/content/2016-sirsidynix-stats
I generated these very basic reports in BC Analytics in order to give you something to show your boards. Unfortunately, I can't generate them by interface. I'll try again tomorrow.
We are still awaiting news on the case we have opened with SirsiDynix regarding the problem with our statistical reports this month. When we hear something you will be the first to know.

SWAN Member Library Staff:
Just FYI – our SirsiDynix-hosted Enterprise server did encounter a very brief service disruption this afternoon. Fortunately, it was short enough that it went largely unnoticed (likely only seconds of downtime).
SirsiDynix has informed us that no further disruptions should be expected today.
Thank you,

Everyone-
We received two tickets this morning regarding low statistics for the month of June. When we investigated we noticed that all the statistics we had run for June were almost half the normal amount. We are in the process of investigating the source of this problem. We will send an announcement when we have the statistics corrected and the problem is fixed. Thank you for your patience.
