Base data

PROJECT_DATA (Mandatory)

This view is used to list all the projects you want to synchronise into Pure. This means that one row should exist in this view pr project you want to have in Pure. For each project you have to specify an PROJECT_ID which will be the primary key for this project in the rest of the views. This means that this ID has to be unique for each project and cannot change over time. In the rest of the views, the PROJECT_ID will be used to relate content when using in a one-to-many relation.

 

Column name Data type Size Mandatory Note Sync type. 
For each field pick on of: 'Yes', 'No', 'Once'
PROJECT_ID String 1024 Yes The ID of the project in your backend system. This ID will be the primary key for the particular project and can thus not change over time. It will furthermore be used to make the correct connection to related content.  
PROJECT_TYPE

String

 

1024 Yes

The type of project. Provide the last part of the uri (key) of the classification.

See classification scheme in Pure: /dk/atira/pure/upmproject/upmprojecttypes

 
TITLE String(*) 1024 Yes The title of the project  
SHORT_TITLE String(*) 256 No The short title of the project  
ACRONYM String 64 No The acronym for the project  
START_DATE Date   No The date where the work based on this project has started.  
END_DATE Date   No The date where the work based on this project will end. The status of the project will be calculated based on this date (or the CURTAIL_DATE if that has been filled in), so when the END_DATE or CURTAIL_DATE is exceeded the status will automatically changed to closed.   
CURTAIL_DATE Date   No The date of when the project was curtailed. The project is curtailed if the date is set.  
CURTAIL_REASON String CLOB No The reason why the project has been curtailed. Note if this field is specified, you must also specify the CURTAIL_DATE  
COLLABORATIVE_PROJECT Boolean   Yes Specify whether this is a collaborative project or not. If it is a collaborative project, the collaborators (external organisations) must be specified in the EXTERNAL_COLLABORATORS view  
MANAGED_BY_ORG_ID String 1024 Yes This field is used to specify which internal organisation is managing the project. The MANAGED_BY_ORG_ID must match either a Pure ID, classification defined ID, source ID or Pure UUID of an organisation already present in Pure.  
MANAGED_IN_PURE Boolean   No

Indicates whether or not an project should be managed inside Pure. If set to TRUE the synchronisation will only import the project and not lock any fields/relations. In subsequent synchronisation runs, the synchronisation will not update the project, unless the MANAGED_IN_PURE state is changed to FALSE. If changed the project will be picked up by the synchronisation and handled as a synchronised content and fields and relations will be locked based on the configuration.

The default behaviour for the synchronisation is to consider MANAGED_IN_PURE as FALSE if data us not supplied for it.

 
VISIBILITY String 12 No

The visibility of the project.

If you supply a value it must be one of the following: public, campus, restricted, confidential

If you do not supply a value the visibility field will be set to public by default.

EXTERNAL_PARTICIPANTS (Optional)

This view is used to specify the external participants on the project(i.e. project participants that do not work for your institution. If you never provide information on external project participants (or do not have them), you should not implement this view.

For each external project participant you have on a project one row should be in the view.

Depending on whether you synchronise external organisations in a separate synchronisation job or not, the view functions a bit differently. Please see the documentation for external applicants on the Application views (EXTERNAL_APPLICANTS) for details on this.

 

Column name Data type Size Mandatory Note Sync type. 
For each field pick on of: 'Yes', 'No', 'Once'
PROJECT_ID String 1024 Yes  The project to add the participant to.  
FIRSTNAME String 1024 Yes First name of the participant.

The role of the project participant. Provide the URI for one of the values in the classification scheme.

See classification scheme in Pure: /dk/atira/pure/upmproject/roles/upmproject

 
EXTERNAL_ORG_NAME String 1024 No Use this field to specify the name of the external organisation the external project participant is related to. When the synchronisation runs a lookup in exiting external organisations will be made to try to find one with an exact match on the name. If such an external organisation can be found, this one will be used and thus related to the external project participant. If no exact match can be found a new external organisation will be made and related to the external project participant.  
EXTERNAL_ORG_TYPE String 1024  

When specifying the EXTERNAL_ORG_NAME you can also specify a type for the external organisation. Provide the URI for one of the values in the classification scheme. This type is used for matching the external organisation, unless this type of behavior is disabled in the synchronisation. The type "unknown" organisation type is ignored during matching, to provide the best possible matches.

In the cases where a new external organisation is created in Pure as part of the synchronisation, this type will be applied to the created external organisation. In the cases where an existing external organisation is used (e.g. a match was found), this field is disregarded and the type is thus not changed.

See classification scheme in Pure: /dk/atira/pure/ueoexternalorganisation/ueoexternalorganisationtypes

 
EXTERNAL_ORG_ID String 1024 No Use this field to specify the ID of the external organisation the external applicant is related to.The EXTERNAL_ORG_ID must match either a Pure ID, source ID or Pure UUID of an external organisation already present in Pure.

PROJECT_ACTIVITY_TYPE (Optional)

This view is used for classifying your project with one or more Nature of activity types. The Nature of activity type is a classification scheme so you can select your own value to chose from, typical examples could be "Research", "Clinical trial" etc. Since you are allowed to select more than one Nature of activity type for each project you have to supply this data in a separate view, mapping the PROJECT_ID to the classification scheme value URI.

If you do not want to synchronise any Nature of activity types to your projects at all you should not implement this view

Column name Data type Size Mandatory Note Sync type. 
For each field pick on of: 'Yes', 'No', 'Once'

PROJECT_DESCRIPTIONS (Optional)

A project can have a number of descriptions. How many should be available in your system is controlled by a classification scheme. Adding more types of descriptions to your project is thus just a matter of adding more values to this classification scheme. Please note that all projects will have all the description fields though.

Since you can have multiple descriptions on a project, you have to supply these via a separate view. In this you relate the PROJECT_ID, description classification scheme value URI and the description itself.

If you do not want to synchronise any descriptions into your project you should not implement this view.

Column name Data type Size Mandatory Note Sync type.

PROJECT_IDS (Optional)

A project can be known by multiple ID's in different systems. This could be your award management system, costing system, the funders system (funder reference code) or similar. For each project you have to supply an PROJECT_ID which will be this projects primary ID. Besides this you have the possibility to add any other ID's you would like to have stored against the project.

Which other ID's you can add to an project is controlled via a classification scheme, so you can tailor this to your specific needs.

Since you can have multiple ID's against a project, you have to supply these additional ones in a separate view. In this you relate the PROJECT_ID, ID classification scheme value URI and the actual ID.

If you do not want to synchronised more ID's than the PROJECT_ID you should not implement this view.

Column name Data type Size Mandatory Note Sync type. 
For each field pick on of: 'Yes', 'No', 'Once'

PROJECT_KEYWORDS (Optional)

This view contains the information about project keywords. There is three different types of keywords you can synchronise.

  1. Structured keywords only. Here you must specify the LOGICAL_NAME and TYPE column to identify what keyword you want to add.
  2. Structured keywords and free keywords. Here you must specify LOGICAL_NAME, TYPE, and FREE_KEYWORD. Note the keyword group with the LOGICAL_NAME must support free keywords.

FREE_KEYWORD String(*) 1024 no

The free keyword to add. If no locale is specified in the column name, the keyword is added to all supported locales. If locales are provided, all supported locales must be specified

To provide a locale  you need to suffix the language to the column name and create a column for each supported locale. In the case of French and English this would result in the following columns:

FREE_KEYWORD_EN

FREE_KEYWORD_FR

If locales are specified FREE_KEYWORD must not be present in your view without a locale suffix.
 

The language should be appended in ISO 639-1 (two-letter codes)
