Table name: mod-inventory-storage/material-types



(mod-inventory-storage/material-types/ID)The material type ID of the itemProvides a join between mod-inventory-storage/material-types and mod-inventory-storage/item-storage/items

Material Type Name (mod-inventory-storage/material-types/name) Name of the material type (e.g., book, DVD, etc.)Needed for item search/replacement

Table name: loan-storage/loans/loans




Loan ID (mod-circulation-storage/loan-storage/loans:id)UUID generated by a loan (identifies a specific circulation transaction)This element will be counted to generate the number of transactions (COUNT(id)). Note: want to count Loan ID for checkouts only.

Loan Date (mod-circulation-storage/loan-storage/loans:loanDate)The date an item was loaned

This data element can be used to filter the report to a date range (where loanDate Between [start] And [end]). It is also used for the date aggregation (to weeks or days/hours). Will also need to (automatically) calculate day of week from this value.

Note: this field is stored as a string but should follow a standardized datetime format (RFC3339 / ISO 8601 date and time). From Marc Johnson: "It should be relatively unlikely [to introduce an error]. Clients which interact with the storage module directly could. With the typical circulation flow it should not be possible"



Item ID (mod-circulation-storage/loan-storage/loans:itemId)Unique ID of the item lent to the patronProvides a join point between mod-circulation-storage/loan-storage/loans and mod-inventory-storage/item-storage/items. 


Notes:

/*Browse counts for this report are not available yet, will need to be added/

/*Report can be adapted for electronic materials as well by bringing in "form of item"?/
