Publication Status crosswalking

[AndrewBennet]

In order to correctly crosswalk the publication-status field (field:host_publication_status) from Hyrax to Elements, we need to determine the mapping of values between the two systems.

In example records, this has the value "TBC". The values we would want to map to are those available in Elements (see attached screenshot):

@AndrewBennet I've amended that particular value to read 'In preparation'. I'll discuss here about what values we use for this field, and how they should be crosswalked.

ORA host_publication_status	Symplectic publication-status	Notes
notpublished	Unpublished
submitted	Submitted
accepted	Accepted
inpress	In preparation
published	Published
no mapping	Published online	Published and Published online both 'published' in ORA, there is no way to disambiguate the two

Is this sufficient to document the crosswalks? I'll add this to the xml documentation too.

:+1: Cheers - that's perfect. I've updated the crosswalk for the inbound mapping on the test server. Should this be set for the outbound mapping too?

[tomwrobel]

Yup, I think so. We'd appreciate it!

[AndrewBennet]

Done. I'm not mapping anything if the publication-status isn't one of those 5 statuses (or isn't present) - is that right?

[AndrewBennet]

Actually, this doesn't seem to be mapping quite right. I'll investigate and update when I know why

[tomwrobel]

Let me know if you want me to tweak test values.

I've given t148fh12j 'notpublished' and 'rn3011364' 'inpress'

[AndrewBennet]

Thanks - I think it's working now :)

[tomwrobel]

Where would I look for testing?

[AndrewBennet]

You can look in the Hyrax record metadata, on the viewobject page. The publication-status field has a display name of "Status”. Or you could look in the OA Monitor using the filter.

Done, tested, and closing!
