1 00:00:34.040 00:00:35.040 Demilade Agboola: Hi, everyone.

2 00:00:35.710 00:00:36.790 Emily Giant: Hey, hey!

3 00:00:38.840 00:00:39.870 Uttam Kumaran: Hello?

4 00:00:40.410 00:00:41.420 Emily Giant: Hello!

5 00:00:49.540 00:00:55.399 Emily Giant: Utam, let me know if you have a minute to, like, chat through the full refresh failures.

6 00:00:55.650 00:01:04.800 Emily Giant: either during the stand-up or after, I just want to try to, like, sort that out. It feels like there has to be something we can do to either, like, break up the job.

7 00:01:05.200 00:01:05.720 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.

8 00:01:05.720 00:01:07.839 Emily Giant: A massive… something.

9 00:01:09.030 00:01:09.989 Uttam Kumaran: I agree.

10 00:01:09.990 00:01:10.630 Emily Giant: Yeah.

11 00:01:11.830 00:01:17.730 Emily Giant: The things it’s failing on are, like, not… It should…

12 00:01:18.750 00:01:20.900 Emily Giant: We’ll figure it out, but anyway, I just wanted to…

13 00:01:21.180 00:01:23.399 Emily Giant: Catch you before we got into it.

14 00:01:26.460 00:01:27.400 Amber Lin: Hello.

15 00:01:27.710 00:01:28.620 Emily Giant: Hi!

16 00:01:32.980 00:01:34.670 Amber Lin: Okay.

17 00:01:35.220 00:01:37.469 Amber Lin: Today’s the last day of the sprint.

18 00:01:38.060 00:01:42.480 Amber Lin: Let’s look at this and see what we can finish this spring and what…

19 00:01:42.830 00:01:45.060 Amber Lin: Won’t need to get carried over.

20 00:01:45.760 00:01:52.319 Amber Lin: … I checked on Loop last week.

21 00:01:52.540 00:01:55.100 Amber Lin: And they said it’s a bit delayed.

22 00:01:55.730 00:01:58.470 Amber Lin: No, but I’ll keep an eye on that.

23 00:01:58.910 00:02:04.530 Uttam Kumaran: Okay Yeah, I… I have Dim Calendar, …

24 00:02:04.950 00:02:07.780 Uttam Kumaran: And Dim Customers is all in PR?

25 00:02:08.800 00:02:10.049 Emily Giant: Oh, sweet, okay.

26 00:02:10.240 00:02:11.140 Uttam Kumaran: BF.

27 00:02:11.140 00:02:13.210 Emily Giant: Wait, I think I deployed those, Utom.

28 00:02:13.540 00:02:14.310 Uttam Kumaran: Oh.

29 00:02:14.310 00:02:15.100 Emily Giant: Yeah.

30 00:02:16.040 00:02:17.050 Uttam Kumaran: Okay….

31 00:02:17.050 00:02:18.209 Emily Giant: Let me double check.

32 00:02:18.210 00:02:18.840 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

33 00:02:20.450 00:02:26.280 Emily Giant: I feel like I did on Friday morning. Unless… You did, like, additional revisions.

34 00:02:26.280 00:02:28.070 Uttam Kumaran: No, that should be it.

35 00:02:28.230 00:02:28.830 Emily Giant: Okay.

36 00:02:32.370 00:02:34.729 Emily Giant: Oh, nope, they’re still alive, okay.

37 00:02:35.610 00:02:42.990 Uttam Kumaran: Maybe check them out. The tables are created in, … and staging, go…

38 00:02:43.450 00:02:45.950 Uttam Kumaran: Check them out. I don’t think I… I think we’re probably, like.

39 00:02:46.340 00:02:51.590 Uttam Kumaran: 80% on the mark on both of them. Like, I tried to get a bunch of the customer info into there.

40 00:02:51.890 00:02:55.860 Uttam Kumaran: And… I mean, calendar was pretty basic, so….

41 00:02:55.860 00:02:56.480 Emily Giant: Yeah.

42 00:02:57.050 00:03:02.320 Emily Giant: Yeah, this is so bizarre. I could have sworn I deployed these. I’ll just do it again.

43 00:03:03.130 00:03:04.080 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, cool.

44 00:03:04.080 00:03:05.480 Emily Giant: Very weird.

45 00:03:07.220 00:03:07.980 Amber Lin: Alright.

46 00:03:08.390 00:03:13.400 Amber Lin: … Let’s see over here…

47 00:03:23.630 00:03:27.520 Amber Lin: Oh, there’s this… New ticket.

48 00:03:27.850 00:03:30.130 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, this one is… you can assign this to me.

49 00:03:30.130 00:03:30.860 Amber Lin: Okay.

50 00:03:34.210 00:03:36.549 Uttam Kumaran: I resolved it, still going.

51 00:03:37.230 00:03:38.589 Uttam Kumaran: Need to do another talk today.

52 00:03:41.670 00:03:42.570 Amber Lin: Okay.

53 00:03:43.920 00:03:44.930 Amber Lin: …

54 00:03:46.770 00:03:54.600 Amber Lin: Alright, Tim, I think from last week, I remember you were… on Thursday, you were doing a spike on Shopify.

55 00:03:54.600 00:03:55.420 Demilade Agboola: Huh?

56 00:03:55.420 00:04:00.759 Amber Lin: These… are they on track? Which ones will get completed by the end of today?

57 00:04:01.860 00:04:11.220 Demilade Agboola: So basically, I was seeing a spike on Shopify data to figure out, what data we have, what’s missing, and how to make it work with modeling.

58 00:04:11.460 00:04:17.200 Demilade Agboola: So that’s done. There are some things we might struggle to do with the Shopify data.

59 00:04:17.829 00:04:31.050 Demilade Agboola: But in terms of what’s on track and what we can get done today, I can get 284 done today, it’s in progress, I should push the PR out soon, and 283 as well. So those two.

60 00:04:31.190 00:04:36.600 Demilade Agboola: Being able to work the line items and split line items will be great, and then we can get that out today.

61 00:04:36.920 00:04:38.390 Amber Lin: Okay, I see.

62 00:04:39.010 00:04:41.329 Amber Lin: Alright.

63 00:04:41.470 00:04:45.930 Amber Lin: Emily, can I close any of these? Are they all still in progress?

64 00:04:45.930 00:04:57.050 Emily Giant: Those are all still in progress, but they’re in a decent spot. I’m still working on, like, 3-2-4 right now. Let’s move 325 over to the next sprint, though. That probably won’t get done today.

65 00:04:57.050 00:04:57.810 Amber Lin: Okay.

66 00:04:59.830 00:05:03.290 Amber Lin: Next one, and I’ll move that in progress.

67 00:05:05.880 00:05:06.850 Amber Lin: Alright.

68 00:05:07.280 00:05:16.320 Amber Lin: … But, I know Paul Thomas has Northbeam. Are we doing any.

69 00:05:16.320 00:05:21.020 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, this one is in review, too, because I synced it, I just have not…

70 00:05:21.270 00:05:24.139 Uttam Kumaran: Did not go confirm, because it was taking a sec, so let me go.

71 00:05:24.140 00:05:24.549 Amber Lin: Okay.

72 00:05:25.060 00:05:30.999 Amber Lin: Awesome. Alright. Any of these should go to the next cycle?

73 00:05:31.310 00:05:34.200 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, these will go to next cycle.

74 00:05:34.200 00:05:35.200 Amber Lin: Sounds good.

75 00:05:38.860 00:05:48.269 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, in this cycle, I should be able to… I mean, I was… I was waiting for Lou, but I should be able to get out transactions and a few of the core models in the next… probably, like.

76 00:05:48.780 00:05:50.079 Uttam Kumaran: Probably tomorrow.

77 00:05:50.300 00:05:50.920 Amber Lin: Hmm.

78 00:05:51.470 00:05:52.370 Amber Lin: Okay.

79 00:05:53.270 00:06:00.430 Amber Lin: Yeah, I have… mostly fact tables, the DVG test related to that.

80 00:06:00.850 00:06:06.710 Amber Lin: Subscriptions… As we’re waiting on a loop and transactions.

81 00:06:07.150 00:06:08.220 Amber Lin: Right here.

82 00:06:09.420 00:06:11.690 Amber Lin: And then these summary tables.

83 00:06:12.060 00:06:15.610 Amber Lin: Which we can assign, when we meet tomorrow.

84 00:06:17.510 00:06:18.030 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

85 00:06:19.190 00:06:20.020 Amber Lin: Okay.

86 00:06:20.750 00:06:27.240 Amber Lin: … I think that’s… That’s for today, we have a few things to finish off.

87 00:06:27.660 00:06:30.160 Amber Lin: And then we’ll start the next sprint tomorrow.

88 00:06:32.990 00:06:36.170 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, … That’s good. Yeah, go ahead, go ahead.

89 00:06:38.140 00:06:40.339 Demilade Agboola: I just wanna say it sounds good, …

90 00:06:40.620 00:06:44.900 Demilade Agboola: Are we doing a… are we doing a sprint retro tomorrow, or is it just gonna be a sprint skateboard?

91 00:06:44.900 00:06:52.920 Amber Lin: … We can combine the retro into tomorrow, since this sprint has been very… ad hoc…

92 00:06:53.230 00:07:04.290 Amber Lin: I’m sorry, not ad hoc, this has been decently async, and I feel like things have been going reasonably well. Are there any retro items you guys want to speak about?

93 00:07:05.280 00:07:10.740 Emily Giant: Not retro. The only thing that I wanted to talk about, …

94 00:07:11.270 00:07:24.020 Emily Giant: outside of the whole refresh is, Demolade, after the spike ticket, do you think we’re gonna need to have, like, a custom table built in order to correct revenue, or do you think it’s actually possible to pull it from the data that we have?

95 00:07:25.620 00:07:29.499 Demilade Agboola: The Shopify data, or, like, all the data generally?

96 00:07:29.930 00:07:31.360 Emily Giant: All of it.

97 00:07:32.500 00:07:44.400 Demilade Agboola: Okay, I think the Shopify data is clean, enough to pull the revenue. The only issue with the Shopify data tends to be that it doesn’t start… it doesn’t go as far back as, like.

98 00:07:44.480 00:07:56.540 Demilade Agboola: 2021 or something, I think it starts from 2023. So there’s a limitation with that. But Shopify data is generally clean, and the idea what I’m going to try and do is…

99 00:07:56.950 00:07:58.289 Demilade Agboola: Rely on it.

100 00:07:58.440 00:08:01.099 Demilade Agboola: Like, the final revenue table would be, like.

101 00:08:01.670 00:08:03.950 Demilade Agboola: on Shopify data when it’s available.

102 00:08:04.130 00:08:08.020 Demilade Agboola: We’re proud of that, just the regular detail, they exist already.

103 00:08:08.440 00:08:14.460 Demilade Agboola: But also looking at that, the idea will be to try and fix that, and try and get it in a good spot.

104 00:08:15.320 00:08:16.889 Emily Giant: Okay, sounds good.

105 00:08:18.850 00:08:21.819 Amber Lin: Alright. Between you were saying something.

106 00:08:22.500 00:08:28.709 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I’m gonna… I’m just finishing up a couple of things, Emily, but I’m just gonna kinda, like, live…

107 00:08:28.840 00:08:38.740 Uttam Kumaran: I’ll live blog what I find on the jobs. I have to go to another meeting after this, and then, like, back-to-backs, but I’ll kind of just put it all into Slack.

108 00:08:39.390 00:08:40.269 Emily Giant: That’s totally fine.

109 00:08:40.270 00:08:41.090 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

110 00:08:41.299 00:08:42.849 Emily Giant: Yeah. Okay, sounds good.

111 00:08:44.240 00:08:58.149 Amber Lin: Okay. Yeah, and I’ll try to assign, based on what I know for tomorrow, so the planning can be quicker. If I get that done, Utam, I’ll send it for your review, so that you can maybe have less meetings tomorrow. We’ll see.

112 00:08:59.060 00:09:00.579 Amber Lin: Alright, thanks everyone.

113 00:09:00.580 00:09:02.060 Emily Giant: Alright, thanks, bye.

114 00:09:02.060 00:09:02.410 Amber Lin: Right.
