Thanks. Does issue date refer to the date the item was checked out? I’m getting just a handful of issues so I’m off somewhere on it. Thanks.

(I see you can create a patron statistics report for patron activity within “years”, but can’t get the code so I can adjust it to a month’s period.) Any tips? Thanks! Melanie Hedgespeth Tech Center Manager Salina Public Library 785.825.4624 Ext. 233 melanie@salpublib.org I assume by "active", you mean "checked out books", right? If so, you'd want something like this: SELECT YEAR(issuedate), MONTH(issuedate), categorycode, COUNT(DISTINCT borrowernumber) FROM old_issues LEFT JOIN borrowers USING (borrowernumber) GROUP BY YEAR(issuedate), MONTH(issuedate), categorycode; Because it uses old_issues, it won't include anything that's still checked out; getting around that requires either ugly subqueries or running the report with old_issues and issues and manually combining the results. -- Jesse Weaver
