Reporting and alerts

User List of Loans Alert

It is now possible to configure a user list of loans alert so that it is sent “n” days after the user’s

Expires date.

Go to Alerting> Notices and search for the list of loans alert.
In Days Before Expiry field, enter a negative value to denote how many days after the user’s expiry date, when the list of loans notice should be sent to the User.

System Reports search

The System Reports Search only lists “system” reports, but now prompts you to also enter search criteria to search for the report name.

There are several pages of records to navigate, as this search has become the container for many placeholder reports - there to enable the system administrator to download from the Reports Repository with minimal effort.

Archived records

All reports have been reviewed to ensure that they disregard archived titles, copies and users. The reports were all reviewed and US003 was amended.

Generally, reports will not include Archived Titles or Copies, but will include user information for archived users.

The exceptions are US002 and US003 which report on active members.

Other reports are relating to past data and excluding the users from, for example, January’s circulation activity if they were archived between the activity and the report would not be an accurate reflection of the activity for the report.
