    Question

    Is there a batch report which includes each fine owed, with associated bibliographic info? {cir-05 ("Unpaid Transactions Letter") can be used to print notices with the associated bib info, but what is needed is a *report*, rather than individual notices.)

    Answer

    The cash-09 ("Cash Export Report") submission screen contains an "Update database" option. If this is left as "No" (the default), cash-09 can function as a report of unpaid transactions.

    This report can include bib, item, and additional patron iinfo.
    1. Add the desired fields to the ./form_eng/bursar-export-report-01.xsl file (as shown in Additional Information below). This contains more fields than the bursar-export-report.xsl.
    2. do util i/6 to recreate the html.pck Print templates package
    3. restart the Circ client

    In submitting cash-09, specifiy "No" for "Update database" and "01" for Report format.

    Additional Information

    Example. Add the following to the ./uip50/form_eng/bursar-export-report-01.xsl file

    <xsl:call-template name="display-grid-gen">
    <xsl:with-param name="label" select="'Patron barcode'"/>
    <xsl:with-param name="value" select="./z308-key-01"/>
    <xsl:with-param name="type" select="'right'"/>
    <xsl:with-param name="header" select="$header"/>
    </xsl:call-template>

    <xsl:call-template name="display-grid-gen">
    <xsl:with-param name="label" select="'ISBN'"/>
    <xsl:with-param name="value" select="./z13-isbn-issn"/>
    <xsl:with-param name="type" select="'right'"/>
    <xsl:with-param name="header" select="$header"/>
    </xsl:call-template>

    <xsl:call-template name="display-grid-gen">
    <xsl:with-param name="label" select="'Item barcode'"/>
    <xsl:with-param name="value" select="./z30-barcode"/>
    <xsl:with-param name="type" select="'right'"/>
    <xsl:with-param name="header" select="$header"/>
    </xsl:call-template>
