Limiting by patron type, circulation type, or category
A few of the Circulation reports let you limit their contents to specific patron
types, circulation types, or categories. In these cases, the report options area
contains a Patron Types, Circulation Types, or Categories button. To limit the
report to a specific patron type, circulation type, or category, click the button. The
dialog appears for the information you're limiting:
To limit the report, click Selected Circulation Types,
Selected Patron Types, or Selected Categories.
After highlighting the desired types, click OK.
The selection list contains the patron or circulation types created in System Setup and the number of patrons or copies
belonging to each. For instructions on adding or removing patron and circulation types, see pages 69 and 76, respectively.
Note:
Circulation types and patron types are labels, created and assigned by the
library staff. Circulation types identify lending periods for copies in the
library collection (see Grouping your collection according to lending
period" on page 45). Patron types identify specific groups of patrons (see
Grouping your patrons by type" on page 69).
