Hi Rogan, I reintroduced two filters date abd itemtype. So that i can sekect any date be it weekly monthly or quarterly etc. I also have different itemtypes sone of which do not start wih a digit and I need to filter them out yo get accurate results. (Your advice on whether the filters might be sn issue is verywelcome) Below is my query. SELECT CONCAT(SUBSTRING(itemcallnumber,1,1), '00') AS "CLASS", count(statistics.type) AS 'NUMBER' FROM borrowers LEFT JOIN statistics ON (statistics.borrowernumber=borrowers.borrowernumber) LEFT JOIN items ON (items.itemnumber = statistics.itemnumber) LEFT JOIN biblioitems ON (biblioitems.biblioitemnumber = items.biblioitemnumber) WHERE statistics.type IN ('issue', 'renew') AND date(datetime) BETWEEN <<Date BETWEEN (yyyy-mm-dd)|date>> AND <<and (yyyy-mm-dd)|date>> AND items.itype = <<Item type|itemtypes>> GROUP BY SUBSTRING(itemcallnumber,1,1) UNION ALL SELECT "TOTAL" AS "CLASS", SUM(statistics.type) AS 'NUMBER' FROM borrowers LEFT JOIN statistics ON (statistics.borrowernumber=borrowers.borrowernumber) LEFT JOIN items ON (items.itemnumber = statistics.itemnumber) LEFT JOIN biblioitems ON (biblioitems.biblioitemnumber = items.biblioitemnumber) WHERE statistics.type IN ('issue', 'renew') Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.-------- Original message --------From: rogan.hamby(a)gmail.com Date: 15/03/2020 00:48 (GMT+03:00) To: muiru james <muirunyeri(a)gmail.com>, Koha <koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz> Subject: Re: [KOHA] SQL CIRCULATION REPORT- how to SUM Hi James, The query I posted worked with my quick test.

You do indeed understand well what I need. The UNION ALL is working well by adding a new row below the last class group. However the SUM function is returning a 0 (zero). It seems its not adding up the numbers. Please dont give up but help me find out the last remaining bit. We are almost there.

How to add a new display field on the left hand.
by erlanda_simonyan＠flib.sci.am 17 Mar '20

17 Mar '20

Dear List, in OPAC after performing a search, on the left hand column of the main page, under the "Refine your search" we can see the sorted lists by "Authors", "Item Types", "Series", "Holding Libraries", "Places", "Topics". I want to add also the "Name of publisher, distributor, etc." as another display option (field 260 subfield b). E.g., to be able to display the Publishers names. Any advice, how to proceed with this? Thanks
