You can use the CASE condition to have an alternate text displayed as a value in an analytics report. The syntax is slightly different if the value is numerical or text. In this example, the CASE condition is used to make the following changes:

• The value for the column Time Loaned, is changed to Not< Loaned if the value is 0 and Loaned if the value is not 0
• The value for the column Publisher is changed to Reidel Publishing if the value is Reidel Pub Co; otherwise, it is not changed

1. Create a report using, for example, the following columns from the Physical Items subject area:
   • Bibliographic Details > MMS ID
   • Physical Details > Time Loaned
   • Bibliographic Details > Publisher

It can be useful to take the output of one report and use it as input in another report. For example, a report in one subject area can be used as input for a report in a different subject area. This provides a means of combining the dimensions of various subject areas together in one report.

For example, you want to determine the effectiveness of a fund by checking the fund for the number of loans per item according to several criteria, such as arrival date and vendor.

In the Physical Items subject area, you can get a list of items and the number of loans per item for the criteria. However, the Physical Items subject area does not have a Fund field, so you cannot get a list of loans by fund from which the item was ordered.

On the other hand, in the Funds Expenditures subject area there is a Fund field, but there is no Number of Loans field.

To get the data you want, you first make a report of the PO Line reference (order line number) using the Funds Expenditures subject area and then use the results from that report as input in a second report with the Physical Items subject area. This is done using the is based on the results of another analysis filter.

1. Create a report with the Fund Expenditure > Fund Ledger > PO Line Reference field.
2. Apply the following filters:
   • Set the fund ledger name to Library and Information Science.
   • Set the PO line sent date to be within the last year.
   • Set the receiving status to be yes.
   
   PO Line Reference Field with Filters
   The following is an example of the report:
   
   PO Line Reference Report
3. Create a report with the Physical Items > PO Line > PO Line Reference field.
4. Select the following filters in the New Filter dialog box:
   • Operator – is based on results of another analysis filter.
   • Saved Analysis – select the report you made with the Fund Expenditure subject area
   • Relationship – set to is equal to any
   • Use Values in Column – PO Line Reference
   
   Filter
   These settings filter the results by PO Line Reference Number based on the fund, so that the report displays the number of loans for each PO Line Reference based on the fund even though the Fund field is not in the Physical Items subject area. The following are the criteria of the report:
   \
   PO Line Reference Filtered By Fund

The following is an example of the report:

Instead of just a list of the PO Line Reference Numbers and an indication of how many times items from that PO Line were loaned you may want an indication of how many total items were ordered from that fund for the given time period. This indicates how many of these items were loaned.

If the number is relatively small you can conclude that this fund is not being used effectively. Alternatively, if there is a high number of loans for items from this fund, you can conclude that this fund is being used effectively.

1. Create a report using the following criteria:
   
   Report Criteria
2. Remove the PO Line Reference field and add two more fields, such as the Num of Loans field. These fields are just placeholders and will be renamed.
3. Use the Edit formula function to change the three fields to the following:
   • First field:
     • Column Header: Items Not Loaned
     • Formula: FILTER("Physical Item Details"."Num of Items" USING ("Physical Item Details"."Last Loan Date" IS NULL))
   • Second field:
     • Column Header: Items Loaned
     • Formula: FILTER("Physical Item Details"."Num of Items" USING ("Physical Item Details"."Last Loan Date" IS NOT NULL))
   • Third field:
     • Column Header: Total Items
     • Formula: "Physical Item Details"."Num of Items"
   
   Column Formula

The following is an example of the report:

You can add a graph to the report:

The following is an example of the graph:

The graph illustrates that the fund is not very effective. Only 4 out of a total of 51 items ordered in the last year have been loaned.

To see the total percentage of items loaned out of all the items ordered, use the following filter to divide the total amount of items loaned by the total amount of items ordered and them multiply by 100:

For example:

This section describes how to union two reports by using a placeholder column.

You may want to filter a report by title starting with both an uppercase and a lowercase letter. One way to do this is to create two separate filters - one for uppercase and one for lowercase. This section describes how one filter can be created to achieve this.

1. Select Edit Formula for the field you want to filter, for example, Title.
   
   Edit Formula
2. Change the column Heading to Lower Case Title.
3. In the Column Formula field, add Lower to the formula.
   
   Lowercase Title
4. Filter by feminism (with a lowercase f), for example, on Lower Case Title. The report displays records whose title has either Feminism or feminism.
   
   Filter for Feminism
   The following is an example of a report. However, all of the titles are in lowercase.
   
   Lowercase Report
   You want to display the real title and filter by the lowercase title.
5. Add the real title to the report, and delete Lower Case Title from the display, but leave it in the filter.
   
   Delete from Display
   The criteria now look like the following:
