Hi Bri,

We have a similar use case at Yale. We often print our accession records to 
accompany new acquisitions through the processing and cataloging workflow. In 
order to save paper and print out reasonably formatted copies of accession 
records we contracted with Hudson Molonglo to develop a plugin. See 
https://github.com/hudmol/yale_accession_slips.

The plugin adds a "Print accession record" option under the "More" menu in the 
accession record view. This creates a PDF of the accession record.

We make use of a number of user-defined fields in our accession records, and 
the layout of the PDF incorporates those, so this plugin might not work 
perfectly for your local implementation. But you could give it a try, or fork 
it and tweak it to meet your needs.

Best,

Mike

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Sharing/previewing Accession Records

Hi everyone,

Could anyone share methods for sharing full Accession records outside of 
ArchivesSpace? We don't utilize the AS PUI, and we are not using any sort of 
endpoint for Accession records. Ideally, we would have something like a print 
preview that we could share. It doesn't look like any of the reports do this, 
and the Generate PDF function is only for Resources (at least for our version 
of AS 2.7.1).

Thanks!
