abstract: Sherri Parker, Coordinator of Library Technology and Acquisitions, DePauw University.

Many ALEPH users do not realize that they can edit a report form themselves on-the-fly from their desktop to include fields that they may not realize are available for that report. ALEPH utilizes .xml files that include all fields available for any given report. Many users do not realize that the data is there in the background, but the form is not using all available data. By browsing the .xml in the Task Manager, staff can see all fields that are available for a particular report, which were not included by default. The session will demonstrate how staff can utilize this information to modify a report on their client without having to re-run the report. This is for anyone who runs reports; you don't have to be a systems person to do this.
