Printing a Statistical Summary of Item Activity

You can print a statistical summary report of any items or group of items for which you track activity. One of the main purposes of the statistical report is to help you determine how long it takes for a newly acquired item from a specific source catalog (MARC vendor) to go from the acquisitions process to circulation.

This item activity statistical summary report lists this information for the group of items that you have displayed in the List Item Activity window:

Total number of items from a specific source catalog.
Total number of days the item had an “In Cataloging” status for each source catalog.
Average number of days the item had an “In Cataloging” status for each source catalog.
Total number of items from all source catalogs.
Total number of days items had an “In Cataloging” status for all source catalogs.
Average number of days items had an “In Cataloging” status for all source catalogs.
