I agree, Marie. The list should have terms that librarians will recognize, not programmers. The underlying structure can still use the programming terms. Kathy At 03:41 PM 9/30/2008, Nicole Engard wrote:

As far as I know there isn't a list. It's sort of hit or miss. I usually find out just testing different fields. I'm CCing the Koha List in case they have any ideas.

When I go into the custom report area I'm getting confused as to what a;; of the things mean in Step 3 where you select columns for display. Is there someplace that describes each of these so that I can make a good choice?

Any help you could give me would be appreciated.
