OCLS will extract Acquisitions data from Sirsi but it is not yet available. In the meantime, colleges wishing to migrate Acquisitions data can begin working on Migration and Mapping forms that do not include Acquisitions data.

New Migration and Mapping forms will be made available once the Acq. data extracts are complete. Colleges will need to confirm the Acq. data on those forms is mapped appropriately but they will not need to redo other tabs in the new forms. Ex Libris has agreed to merge the mapping and migration forms that have initial edits with the forms that include acq data later.

Before OCLS can complete the Acq. data extracts, we need colleges to confirm the Ledger Code and Ledger Names using the instructions below.

Update your Funds File (Due Nov. 3rd)

1. Retrieve the Excel file called, “college_funds_YYYMMDD” from OCLS FTP (/out/Extract_for_ALMA/Extracts)

2. Use Column “A” to add the Ledger Code

3. Use Column “B” to add the Ledger Name

4. For more information, see https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Implementation_and_Migration/Migration_Guides_and_Tutorials/Symphony_to_Alma_Data_Delivery_and_Migration_Guide#Funds

5. Please do not make any changes to Fund IDs

6. Save updated Excel file as “college_funds_YYYMMDD_Updated” and load to OCLS FTP (/out/Extract_for_ALMA/Extracts).

7. Notify OCLS when your new Funds file is loaded to OCLS FTP.

Continue to the Symphony Data Mapping & Migration Form Instructions page once you have updated your Funds file.
