The following are excerpts from Checkouts/Fines Transactions Reports:

In this first example, the user decided to select the Fines Only option. As a result, assessed fines

for items already checked in, lost, or damaged, or user-defined, are included in the report (see

Total Pending Fines: $2.50

Note: Pending fines are calculated as of the report date, and reflect
fines that may be charged if the overdue items were returned on this date.

In this example, the user selected All Items Checked out and did not select the Show All Assessed Fines option. As a result, the

Fines column is limited to the current pending fines for overdue copies. These fine amounts are calculated as of the report date.

The fine is not actually assessed until the item is checked in.

Generating a Circulation Statistics Report

The Circulation Statistics Report lets you choose to examine itemized circulation

statistics for a selected range of titles or call numbers. You can use this report to

examine the circulation statistics for a specific category. If you choose Shelf List

order, use the report to identify areas in your library collection in need of

weeding or enhancement.

Note:

If you want to calculate circulation statistics as of a particular date, use the

Set Report Date feature to override the current system date. For more

information about changing the report date, see page 494.
