Outstanding Issues
EPS/Rooms incident 215129 and was updated by Craig Lawrence this week.
Memphis has revisited with the project manager their dissatisfaction with having to go through Client Care with Rooms issues. Their incidents are not responded to in a timely manner, which is very frustrating. Working directly with Craig Lawrence gets quicker results. Jeannie is following through on this with the appropriate SirsiDynix staff.
