Exporting Requests

 Under the Open requests and Completed requests filters, an option to Export requests can be configured to display in the top right-hand corner of the page above the request or grid of requests. This option allows requests to export the request data for their open and/or completed requests.

After clicking on Export requests the requester is prompted to indicate what fields from the requests to include in the file of requests.

Two columns display:

  • the right-hand side lists the fields to include in the file by default
  • the left-hand side lists the remaining fields which may be selected

Use relais_right_arrow.png to add more fields to the file.

Use relais_left_arrow.png to remove fields from the file.

Use relais_two_arrows.pngto change the order in which the field is placed in the file.

Click Reset to display the original defaults in the left and right-hand columns.  

Click Download to create and export the comma delimited csv file.

Additionally, libraries can configure a warning message to display prompting users to export their request history when a patron’s total requests are within the configured percentage of the total number of requests (Open or Completed) that can be displayed. The default configuration is 10%.

 Note:  The CSV file created is a comma-delimited file. When opened in Microsoft Excel some fields of data (i.e. pages) may be displayed out of context. i.e. 8-10 may appear as 10-Aug due to MS Excel default formatting. The CSV file should be imported into Excel and the pages field formatting set to "Text" instead of "General" to avoid this issue.
