Long_Overdue_selects_with_barcodes

CR_tips5_Available_on_reserve Ever wanted to try to run Crystal Reports from an Excel file? I have imported from Spydus' Instant Report "Items available for allocation" this file into Excel and with Crystal Report changed the layout and sorted the fields to make it easy to check the collections/shelves. By using the same Excel file name and saving it in the same folder and following a few steps, Crystal Reports can find this data and updates the screen automatically after the Ok to update prompt.

Monthly Discards Report (v.1) - select own dates Monthly Discards Report: gives a summary of the numbers of items 'discarded' in each collection and its total value, for each branch/library, for a particular period - to be entered when the refresh button is clicked (uses a parameter macro). The 2nd version uses the date range 'LASTMONTH' in case the date selection feature in the first version doesn't work.(Spydus 8.2) Madelon van Zijll de Jong - Hastings Central Library NZ

Crystal Templates

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.
