Change to Renewal statistics

|
In the middle of last month, a change was made to the way we track renewal statistics.

We've finally implemented a long anticipated Innovative enhancement.  Renewals are now assigned to the circulating library, instead of simply to "online."  It will now be easier to see where an item was originally circulated, and we will have more accurate data for statistics.

In order for us to have the data we need for the circulation reports, a change was made to the Web Management Reports.  From now on, when you run a Cross Tab report, it will need to be run separately for checkouts and renewals.  The checkout numbers for these reports will no longer include the renewals.  This change does not apply to the regular Circulation Web Management Reports.  In these reports, the checkout figures do include renewals.
