Issues for financial year by branch by collection. Not including renewals - just remove that part of the select statement to count all issues.
To change the breakdown to just by collection or just by branch, delete one of those cells from the table and it will recalculate the table without that sort criteria.
A very simples report - what could possibly go wrong?
This report lists heavily reserved biliographic records. It includes order information (if present) as well as a count of copies.
To get this report to work you need to create a new table in your SQL database by closely following the instructions in the attached zip file AT YOUR OWN RISK. I personally had no problems following these instructions but if you get stuck I'm afraid you're on your own. Likewise if you break your database in some bizarre way. I think that's very unlikely but I have to limit my liability here...
We commissioned Civica (in the form of Trevor) to write this report for us. They are happy for me to share the report we paid for but if you can't get it to work and want some help with it I'm sure your account manager can work something out.
The first column is a basic calculation of reservations per item and order.
2nd column is the title and collection.
Then it's total copies, total resies, total on order copies and order date.
I hope it's useful.

These are template files which can be used as the basis for your own reports. The key links between tables are already established allowing you to report on the data you need.
The reports were written under Crystal Reports 2008 and tested against an 851 environment.
You must of course change Set Datasource Location before running these reports. All templates prompt for Institution allowing them to be used in a consortia environment. The loans and reservations (holds) templates also prompt for date ranges in order to limit the volume of data returned.
Please note: The Borrowers (XXX_BORROWERS).rpt is specifically designed for SELMS customers in the UK and even then it cannot be used without amendment. Through Database Expert the SELMS user must replace the KJO_BORROWERS table with their own unique table in the SpydusREP database. All links must therefore be re-established.
