Filter cir-11 by Item Due Date

Question

How can a report be printed that only contains all hold requests on items with a due date of 24/Aug/2010?

Answer

To print only hold requests with a due date of August 24, use an XSL for-each element.
Steps:
1) Copy the form_lng/outstanding-loan-requests.xsl and edit the new version of the file.
2) In the grid section at the bottom of the XSL file, edit/add the fields to be printed. At least add the loan due date field:
<xsl:call-template name="display-grid-gen">
<xsl:with-param name="label" select="'Due Date'"/>
<xsl:with-param name="value" select="./z36-due-date"/>
<xsl:with-param name="header" select="$header"/>
</xsl:call-template>
3) At the top of the XSL file (after <!--section-02 (GRID)-->), add element <xsl:for-each select="//section-02[z36-due-date='24/08/2010']">
Example:
<xsl:call-template name="grid-open"/>
<xsl:for-each select="//section-02[z36-due-date='24/08/2010']">
<xsl:if test="position() = 1">
<xsl:call-template name="section-02">
<xsl:with-param name="header" select="'header'"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:call-template name="section-02"/>
</xsl:for-each>
4) Use util i/6 to recreate the print template package.
5) Now execute Outstanding Hold Requests Report (cir-11) using the new file format. Only hold requests with a due date of 24/Aug/2010 should print.

Additional Information

* cir-11 can print all outstanding hold requests.
* In the report, it is also possible to include information from the associated loan record (Z36).
