Viewing the Daily Transaction Log
The daily transaction log provides detailed information related to login, search, cataloging and interlibrary loan transactions for all libraries defined in your system for a selected one-month period. The report is saved as a text (.TXT) file, in tab-delimited format, for import into a spreadsheet application such as Microsoft Excel.
NOTE: The Daily Transaction Log feature is available with Advanced Statistics only.
To view the Daily Transaction Log:
The Daily Transaction Log is organized in chronological order, from oldest to most recent transaction, for the selected report period, with each transaction listed on a separate line. Each line in the Daily Transaction Log provides the following information:
- tid (transaction identifier) the system-assigned transaction identifier number.
- TranLogged the date and time at which the associated transaction took place.
- Type numeric code identifying the specific type of transaction. Type identifiers for each transaction category (login, search, cataloging and interlibrary loan) are described below:
NOTE: For login transactions by users who are granted access to multiple staff modules, the transaction is recorded for the user's default staff mode.
