eparties Topic 17: Tribe Details & Cultural Group records

[rondlg]

DISCUSSION POINTS:

• Will Cultural Affiliation records need any extra fields for Anthro to be able to capture all necessary terms associated with a group?

• Tribe Details [consultations] records are getting migrated to parties -- most/all already exist as “Organization” party records. Should these be converted to a different record type (instead of “Organization”) party records?

• • Either way, no functionality looks like it would be affected pre- or post-development.

• From Repatriation: Avoid the term “Affiliation” since it (& similarly “Association”) have legal connotations that would cause confusion.

DECISION:

From Repatriation: Avoid the term “Affiliation” since it (& similarly to “Association”) has legal connotations that would cause confusion. "Cultural Group" is better.

If "Nationality" & "Ethnicity" (single-value) and "Cultural Influences" (multi-value) cover what the Anthro Catalogue needs, no need for further structural changes on the Biography (AllBioTab)

Create/Use new record type “Cultural Group”

FROM kwebbink

• Madeleine was cleaning up/merging duplicate Orgs & replacing with Cultural Group record. In some cases, sounded necessary for some groups to keep an Org-record record separate from a Cultural-Group-record, but needs clarification in...

& if just need a decision for now, how about:

• Keep Cultural Group records separate from Org type records.
• [for axiell] - need to adjust/fix Summary strings for Cultural Group records (current workaround doc'd in Repatriation how-to)

@magpiedin

I know the transfer to eparties happened. Can you make a quick note of what was done and close out this issue?

[magpiedin]

Migration completed in Oct 2018

• Consultations records with Record Type = "Tribe Details" were mapped & migrated to Parties records with Record Type = "Cultural Group"
• "Cultural Group" Parties were attached to "Interaction"/"Repatriation"/"Visit" Consultations, to replace "Tribe Details" Consultations attachments

Follow-up to do:

• Review "Tribe Details" Consultations that contain Interaction/Repat/Visit data (e.g. irn 735)
  • Either update Record Type to "Interaction"/"Repatriation Rquest"/"Visit", or delete

[rondlg]

@magpiedin Is that an "us" task or a cleanup task for the repatriation folks?

[magpiedin]

us/IT-task unless we update Tab switching for AnthroConsultation group & Tribe Details records

I'll review it with them at next week's regroup (agenda/note)
