Kevin Ashman will kindly do a monthly pull of people within CCB. HR has info on all staff, faculty, post-docs and other researchers. Instruction has info on all grad students.
DONE
See the People list documentation.
Ideal goal: Single spreadsheet, each month, with current snap-shot of all CCB people and some info about each person.
PatH has CCB-taken photos of each Grad student,with their name. PatH to send those photo sheets for us, for each incoming year's worth of Grads (1st year Grads). PatH will add NetIDs to this sheet (7/31/13).
Documentation and reminders
For Kevin
- Include only "Current" from the Grad student list.
- Don't include "withdraw", for example. (And "Former" Grads already not being included, apparently.)
To do's
- To Grad DB: Add a "title" or "Position" field. And have it auto-filled with the word "Grad".
- In Grad DB: Populate NetID field.
- "NetID" field exists but is currently empty or not comprehensively filled. Fill it with the NetID for each grad. Q: Business need for PatH, if any?
- Note: Still will need a fully qualified email field since Outlook won't always resolve a NetID automatically. Currently that email field is auto-generated from the NetID field in Oliver's "master" people spreadsheet, so we just need a NetID.
Data export needed for billing and Remedy reporting

Initially from Sharon's phone directory's Excel file (not a DB); update by hand. It's what Joyce Boda recommends using. |
* When and if Grad DB gets their NetID field 100% populated, pull that one instead of their "email" data. Otherwise, just keep using this field and do the required data munging.
Required
- Group affiliation
- Name- First
- Name- Last
- Cornell NetID
Optional, when available
- Room #, Building
- Title*

Processes figured out so far
ChemIT has created for Kevin a folder, R:\Public - all Chem Staff\Chem staff files\, which is available to Kevin on his R: drive.
- Kevin is thus putting the spreadsheet there and is able to update them. And we’ll be able to access the most recent copies without emailing and such.
Kevin also has access to the FileMaker grads file on the server.
- In FileMaker, open remote fm.arts.cornell.edu. (We suggest adding as a favorite host.)
Purposes
- CCB Groups within Active Directory (managed by ChemIT).
- For access to CCB file servers, NMR access (in the future, possibly), Chem Community Headnode (possibly).
- ChemIT monthly billing
- ChemIT activity reports from Remedy (Remedy identification)
- ChemIT staff's knowledge of who is who
- Ideally with pictures (from PatH. And/or from WorkDay), at least for grads.
Question: Of value to the Stockroom? To Accounting/ billing? To other CCB units?
