| | Posted: | | | | Hi,
my best friend who now happens to live on the other side of the country has borrowed quite a few DVDs from me. He wants to return them when I see him on the easter holidays. But he needs a list (he has a collection of his own and has recently moved).
I can filter by "loaned out" but not by "loaned out to".
Is it possible to create a report that just lists the movies borrowed to him (and not to somebody else? | | | Karsten

| | Posted: | | | | Does the Loan feature still automatically set the profiles to Watched...? I believe it used to do that but haven't loaned out in a while.
If yes you could filter on Loaned Out AND Watched by "<you friend's name here>". | | | Achim [諾亞信； Ya-Shin//Nuo], a German in Taiwan.

Print "flagged entries only", plus you can save the flag-set to speed up the return at easter.

Filter and than just flag the ones your friends has. But there isn't obvious way to see to whom it is borrowed, except for using the Loan To DropDown? | | | Karsten

It's a little bit of initial work, but you may need it again in the future. | | | Achim [諾亞信； Ya-Shin//Nuo], a German in Taiwan.

| | Posted: | | | | I may have this wrong, as I tend not to use the loaned or watched systems, but if you go into Edit Users and click on your friend's name - does it not show you their history? Will that not tell you which ones they still have?
Edit: sorry, I noticed now you actually want a report, not just a list. | | | | Last edited: by northbloke |

But even better: go to the Collection list and rightclick. You can show a "loanded to"-Column and even sort for it. cya, Mithi | | | | Mithi's little XSLT tinkering - the power of XML --- DVD-Profiler Mini-Wiki |
