[Koha] Reports returning different totals

[Cindy Weber]

Thank you for the explanation!  Between your explanation and Beverly 
Church's I've managed to figure out the problem.  The top report listed 
the checkouts by the home library of the patron, not the checkout 
library so that was part of the issue.  The other is we do appear to be 
affected by the reporting bug as well.  There are thousands of renewals 
that show as having no agency code so they weren't included in the 
second report totals. 

Is there someplace else to get the renewal information?  I would think 
issues.lastrenewdate and old_issues.lastrenewdate would get me some of 
them but not if the item had been renewed twice.

Thanks!
Cindy
