Archiving Borrowers

This is a document of the changes identifed by member Scott Purcival (Western Downs Libraries) between Spydus versions 10.1.6 and 10.6.

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.

Over the years I have collected Boolean Queries and solutions from the SPUN listserve.

My thanks to the authors, who are Spun listserve members, for finding and passing on their solutions.

I hope this list will help you when you cannot remember anymore "where a solution was given for a similar query"....
