Patron Attributes Koha 3.0
We are a k-5 elementary school that has been using Koha since the fall of 2006. We upgraded to Koha 3.01.00.008 in December running Perl version 5.008008, mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.68, Server version: Apache/2.0.52 and Zebra 2.0.34. It was suggested that we add Patron Attributes so that we could collect some information better. I have added Patron Attributes for Grade, Homeroom Teacher and Student Id Number. Now, this may be pretty obvious, but now that I have this information in how do I get to it so that I can generate a report from it or use the data? I'm the Teacher-Librarian that has been working with the program not a programmer but I'm willing to learn. Thanks in advance... your help is greatly appreciated- Marie J.

Marie, This page: http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=blob_plain;f=installer/data/... shows you the database structure and shows you where the data regarding your attributes is stored. Once you know this you can write an SQL query to grab that information and print it out as a report. --- Nicole C.
