Excellent. That's exactly what I needed to know.
Thanks for all your help and time.

So if I ran a report that counted CIRC ID from the CIRCULATION source, would
that only include the counts of circulations and not renewals? In other
words, would I need to also include counts of phone, desk, and OPAC renewals
to get a full count of activity?
If you just counted Circ ID, that would include renewals, as each
renewal causes a new row in the circ table.
You could filter them out (doesn't sound like you want to) with the
fields previously mentioned (or, you could filter them out based on
the Parent Circulation field, since original circs and their renewals
are linked through that).
