Statistics parameters
This table enables activation of Statistics collection. These parameters may be changed at any time. The activation has implications as to what can be displayed in Spreadsheet and System Activity Windows as well as Statistical Reports.
In Amlib navigate to Main > Supervisor > StatsParams
The table that displays is linked to what statistics are being counted. The first column, Stats Type is to be used with statistics reports when adding the Type (Iss/Ret) to the Where Statement. If a corresponding Y for Yes is displayed to the right of the Stats Description column, then the Type will or will not be counted depending on the Column description. If these are changed from an N to a Y, the statistical count will only be from the time of the change.
It is useful to have a Print out of this table or to access the table on the screen when developing Where parameters in Statistics reports |
The program uses the code for the statistical collection. For example, the Issue program has been set to add 1 to the 05 code set every time an issue is made. You therefore cannot add any new codes.
You may change descriptions and collection flags for any of these items but you may not alter the intrinsic value of a code i.e. 05 is always an issue even though you may give it a description of “loan” rather than “issue” The issue program has been set to add 1 to the 05 code set every time an issue is made |
Because statistics are kept by the actual day month and year values we have no regular update to be run and you do not need to print monthly stats at the exact end of month. For example, you can print statistics for July in December. Statistics are kept on the database until deleted.
When viewing statistics on the system activity window you may only view down to the level at which stats are being collected. i.e. if you are not collecting by hour enter 0 - 23 in the hours fields |
Some codes can be created by users. For example, codes can be added to Reports to collect the number of reports run (Circulation reports also can collect the number of reports sent e.g. How many invoices sent in May which is entered in the Detail Stats code of the Reports screen. A corresponding entry has to be made to the Stats Params table).
These customised codes only refer to:
Opac Other |
200s |
Reports |
300s |
NetOpacs |
500s |
Because statistics are kept by the actual day month and year values, maintenance of statistics (e.g. indexing) is not required and you do not need to print monthly stats at the exact end of month. i.e. you can print stats for July in December if you so desire.
Some statistics are kept by Location and some are not recorded. For example, Catalogues and Periodicals are not kept by location. Stockitems and Circulation would however be kept according to location.
Statistics are kept on the database until deleted.
