[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reports - Item Source - Parent circulation?

[Terran McCanna]

Hi Jennifer,

I would built that report like this:

Source: Classic Item List

Filters:
Status > id (Operater = In List)
Owning Library > id (Operator = In List)
Deleted (Operator = Equals, Filter Value = f)

Display Fields:
Circ Modifier
Callnumber Label
Title
Barcode
Patron Barcode
Patron Name
