Learn how to create and view the Stockitem usage count report in Amlib.

 

There are several report templates to count Stockitem usage. The report templates are designed to show usage statistics displayed in a number of ways:

  • &STKHCC.QRP – usage count in Call Number order giving details of each Stockitem
  • &STKHCSC.QRP – usage count in Stats Code order giving details of each Stockitem
  • &STKHCCS.QRP – usage count in Call Number order giving summary only (by Call No)
  • &STKHCSS.QRP - usage count in Stats Code order giving summary only (by Stats Code)

The reports are run against the Stockitem History. Users that delete data from the Stockitem History table need to be aware of the limitations of results.
