Database Statistics by Item Exception (Status)

Purpose: Provides a snapshot of the library's catalog based on the item's exception (status). This report is intended to provide insight into the volume and performance of the library's catalog.

Report Parameters:

• Library (drop-down menu) – determines the library for which the report will be generated:

  For Customer SuperUsers (when logged into the customer-level account for your VERSO system):

  • Select the Select All checkbox to generate the report for all libraries in your system, or, select one or more individual libraries, as desired. A checkmark indicates the associated library is selected. An empty checkbox indicates the associated library is not selected. Clicking a checkbox repeatedly will toggle it on and off.
  • If desired, use the Filter Libraries function to filter the Library menu based on a term (filter) you enter. The Library menu refreshes as you type to display only those library names that contain your search term. Select the Select All Filtered checkbox to generate the report for all libraries in the filtered Library menu, or, select one or more individual libraries, as desired. A checkmark indicates the associated library is selected. An empty checkbox indicates the associated library is not selected. Clicking a checkbox repeatedly will toggle it on and off.

    NOTE: If there are no matches to your term (filter), the message “No Matches Found” displays.

• Branch (drop-down menu) – determines the branch for which the report will be generated; select All Branches to generate the report for all branches for the current Library selections, or, select one or more individual branches, as desired.

NOTE: The Branch menu lists all branches defined for the current Library selection(s).

• A checkmark indicates the associated branch is selected. An checkbox indicates the associated branch is not selected. Clicking a checkbox repeatedly will toggle it on and off.

To view the Collections — Item Exceptions (status) Report:

Report data is displayed as a “pie” graph, and includes a textual summary of statistics.

• The “pie” graph shows a separate “wedge” for each item exception (status) applied to at least one percent of the total holdings for the Library and Location selected during report setup, and indicates the percentage of holdings associated with each item exception (status). Item exceptions (statuses) applied to less than one percent of the total holdings are combined under the heading Other. A legend for the “pie” graph is shown to the right of the graph.

• The report summary provides the following information for each entry in the listing:
  • The sequence number (#) for the Item Status
  • The Item Status to which statistics apply
  • The total # of Items to which the associated Item Status is applied
  • The % of Total holdings to which the associated Item Status is applied
  • Grand Totals are shown at the end of the summary
