- Product: Voyager

Description
When migrating from Voyager to Alma it may be helpful to identify those patrons in your Voyager database who have non-active barcodes attached to their patron records. In other words, patrons who have barcodes with a status of "Lost" or "Expired", etc.
The following query, which can be run using Voyager Access Reports, provides a list of patrons including first name, last name, barcode and patron ID for those patrons who have barcodes that are not of the type "Active".
SELECT PATRON_BARCODE.BARCODE_STATUS, PATRON.PATRON_ID, PATRON.LAST_NAME, PATRON.FIRST_NAME, PATRON.CREATE_DATE, PATRON.MODIFY_DATE, PATRON.EXPIRE_DATE, PATRON.PURGE_DATE, PATRON_BARCODE_STATUS.BARCODE_
FROM (PATRON_BARCODE INNER JOIN PATRON ON PATRON_BARCODE.PATRON_ID = PATRON.PATRON_ID) INNER JOIN PATRON_BARCODE_STATUS ON PATRON_BARCODE.BARCODE_STATUS = PATRON_BARCODE_STATUS.BARCODE_
WHERE (((PATRON_BARCODE.BARCODE_
