Ser_subs_complete_bytitle A list of serial titles.  Sorted by title and listing each branches individual subscription.  User can select end and finish date of subscription

Issues_by_branch_by_collection_for_fin_year_-_not_renewals

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?

Serials_issues_by_branch_and_date Before opening this report, set datasource location and change selection parameters for your library.

Long_Overdue_selects_with_barcodes Produces a list of very long overdues,with accn numners in numeric and barcode font.  A work around for bulk processing items through circ maintennace.  I found the barcodes scan best if printed straight from crytsal Reports rather than saved to an excel file etc. 

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.
