Hi Scott, Another option might be to have the long overdue items age to a different status (Long Overdue or Lost) when they are so many days overdue. The copy statuses themselves have an opac_visible flag. So for example, if items are set to Long Overdue after a certain amount of time, and

Lise, Even if you don't have SQL access, I would encourage you to attend a session on the topic. In the reports module, you're essentially constructing a SQL query. The more you understand joins and such, the more you will understand how to build the reports you want, and the more useful that
