Generate a Copy Transaction Data report

The Copy Transaction Data report lets you extract information about copy transactions in an XML format.

You can then import the XML into a number of applications. For instance, you can import the file into a spreadsheet program, delete any columns you don't want, and then sort and filter the data to create custom lists and reports.

To generate the report:

  1. Select Reports > Library Reports.
  2. Under Statistics, click Copy Transaction Data.
  3. Enter a date range.

    Note: You can limit to one title, author, subject, or call number or a range.

    • All dates: Leave both fields blank.
    • One date: Enter the same date in both fields.
    • Up to and including a specific date: Leave the From field blank, and enter it in the to field.
    • A specific date: Enter it in the From field, and leave the to field blank.
  4. To Include in-library use for copies only used in the library, select the checkbox.
  5. To Include associated Patron Data, select the checkbox.
    Note: This checkbox only appears for users with the Access library checkout history or Access media checkout history permission.
  6. Click Extract. The Report Manager appears.
  7. Find your report, and then:
    • Click the View link.
    • Download the file by clicking XML.
