Description

We would like to exclude deleted items from our Analytics reports. They should only report on existing items.

Resolution

You can easily filter them from your reports.
In the "Physical Item Details" dimension you find a field "Lifecycle". This field can hold the value "Active" or "Deleted". Just filter by Lifecycle=Active, and all deleted items will disappear from your reports.

Additional Information

Filter by Lifecycle=Deleted in order to get a report that only contains deleted items.

There are lifecycle fields for many other areas available. For example there is a Bibliographic Lifecycle field for BIB records, an electronic collection lifecycle field for collections, and so on.
