[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] ***SPAM*** Questions about patron records

[Glen Modell]

Hello.  My name is Glen Modell and I work at the Ann Arbor District Library in Michigan.  We have been using Innovative since 2005 but are investigating the Evergreen system.  I am looking into how I would migrate patron records, and I have several questions for anyone who could take a moment to answer them. 
 
First, how are you using the following fields:  Active, Master_account, Super_user, Barred, Usr_group, Last_xact_id?
 
Second, I see that I can segment off patrons as local/nonlocal and adult/juvenile by using the Juvenile and Within_CIty_Limits fields.  But we also have business cards and so on.  What field/fields are you using in the Evergreen patron record to distinguish between different types of patron cards?
 
Third, when I register a new patron in the client, I see a bar labeled Statistical Categories at the bottom of the screen.  This is not a link and I wondering how this is used.
 
I'd appreciate any responses.  Thanks.  --  Glen.
