In our work as implementers here at the SMK we found it necessary to make a revision check and comparison of the functional requirements, the schemas, the wireframes, and the current version 1.0 alpha. The purpose of this work was to establish any discrepancies and inconsistencies in the implementation of CollectionSpace programme regarding the eight core procedures of version 1.
For Loans Out we have the following comments:
Regarding the schema:
There is a small discrepancy in how the borrower and borrower's contact are related and the similar connection between lender's authorizer, authorization date, and lender's contact.
Regarding the wireframe:
On the schema page it is stated that the sub-loan schema should be available in both the primary loan tab, and also on per-object basis. How will this functionality be? And how will it look?
Regarding the CS version 1.0 alpha:
Generally we find that the strong graphic design of the wireframes is lost in the present version 1.0 alpha.
