Hi There,
I have received a large donation of books for my library and would
like to run a report summing the number of items donated, totalling
the rrp of the books donated so that I may determine a value for the
donation.
For the time being as I catalogue I have put donor info in the
supplier id and rrp in price field in the items record.
Any suggestions as to how this might be done? I would like to set up
a system which I can use for other donations.
Hi Amanda,
That sounds right: in the Item record use the Source of Acquisition and
Cost Price fields (or perhaps better, if you have rrp, is to use
Replacement Price). To compile the report, you of course need a unique
value to select on, so that probably means just being careful with the
Donor name.
For large, valuable donations, we have also seen libraries create a
Collection code, but sometimes that has been associated with a specific
space as well.
Regards,
Bob Birchall
