Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Filtering acquisitions items out of a hold report

Thanks, Michele! Chris, good idea. I'll file a bug ticket. I'll probably file another one for a source that includes a way to show the format of the record that the hold is on in a more meaningful way. I get that request a lot, and I have just been throwing Item Form in there and having the

I think a holds reporter source would be useful to many Evergreen users. Also, a suggestion for Jessica's query - adding left joins will pick up holds that don't appear in the hold_copy_map: SELECT DISTINCT ON (ahr.id) ahr.request_time, acard.barcode, au.family_name, au.first_given_name,

You're welcome! I should mention that some consortia don't allow users direct access to the database for security purposes (we don't). If that's the case, perhaps your sys admin would be willing to run the occasional query for you. It doesn't hurt to ask! On Wed, Oct 10, 2018 at 3:53 PM Jennifer

Hi Jennifer, First, check with your system administrator to make sure you have access to your Evergreen database, either through psql (command line) or a GUI (PGAdmin). Then, I would recommend watching Rogan Hamby's excellent presentation from the 2014 Evergreen conference - SQL for Librarians:

Hi Jessica, My library cataloger is interested in having a report like this as well but I have no experience using SQL on the backend of Evergreen. Can you tell me how you go about learning this? Thanks *Jennifer Bruch* Bethlehem Area Public Library 11 W. Church Street Bethlehem, PA 18018

Hi Chris, Thanks for your question. It made me go back and look at the generated SQL, and realize that what they are looking for is probably too complex for the reporter. I ended up writing my own SQL query to generate the report. I'm happy to share it if anyone is interested. Thanks again!

Hi all, We have a library who wants a report listing requests that have not been filled in over a month. That is no problem - we have several libraries using a report that can do this. However, they would also like to filter their acquisitions items out of the report. The only indication that an
