  * We discussed how consortium manage and clean up reports. Suggestions include:
          * Set up chron jobs to delete outputs and non-recurring reports after a set period of time.
          * Be sure to set up time out windows so faulty templates to run forever. 
          * Include the source as well as the paths for display and filter fields in the description/notes.
          * Include the Evergreen version in the template name to know create time at a glance. 
          * Run reports on unused templates to delete unnecessary ones. 
          * Run reports on the template/report run history to delete unneeded recurring or ones from inactive staff. 
          * Use the documentation url to share links to additional instructions.
          * Review permissions and who can run/build/share templates. 
          * Be aware that migrated data will impact how you use reports, especially for weeding purposes.
          * Review the differences in functionality between Simple Reports and full Reports. 
          * Review the use of nullability especially for reports using Statistical Categories
