[Wactclc-primo] [Wactclc-alma] Question about changes to activations in the Primo Central Index (PCI)

[Guidry, Wade]

Dale,

As per: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Primo_Central/Knowledge_Articles/Activate_Resources_in_the_Primo_Central_Wizard

“These activations (ie, PCI activations) will be updated once a week (each Thursday morning) and will be available the upcoming Monday.”



So, your changes to your PCI activations will picked up on Thursday, indexed over the weekend, and reflected the following Monday.

The job you are looking at in Alma is about publishing Alma changes to Primo Central.

Alma changes are published to Primo Central on Tuesday night.
PCI changes are published to Primo Central on Thursday night.

It’s all then indexed together into your institutional Primo indexes over the weekend, and visible on Monday.

Subject: [Wactclc-alma] Question about changes to activations in the Primo Central Index (PCI)

Hello all,

I am confused about something that I did yesterday afternoon regarding activations in the PCI and when the results appear in Primo.

Yesterday, around 2:00 pm I deactivated one collection and I also activated one collection:

I deactivated "oapen"
I activated "Kanopy USA"

I checked my job monitor screen and I see that Publishing to Primo Central took place yesterday evening around 10:30 pm; however, I'm not sure I am seeing the changes I expected to see.

We were getting multiple records for an open access record "Abbott's Gambit", with one of the extra records coming from "oapen".  I assumed that by deactivating "oapen" in the PCI the duplicate records would not show in Primo, but the records continue to show even after the PCI publishing job ran.

I also activated "Kanopy USA" yesterday afternoon; however, no Kanopy records are showing up in my Primo searches today.

Am I missing something about PCI publishing?  Were my changes to close in time to be picked up by the PCI publishing job?

Thanks!
