Sortable Checkout History

From Syma:
I am going to work on getting a video tutorial posted on the Training Portal to illustrate this information but, in the meantime, I want to share these steps with you.  If you have any questions, let me know.

·         If you are looking for a specific author or know part of a title, you can use the “Find in Page” function in your browser (usually CTRL-F) to highlight wherever that name or word appears in the My Checkout List. 
·         If you copy and paste the information from the My Checkout page into a spreadsheet program like Excel, you will be able to quickly sort by title but not by author.   
·         If you would like to sort by author as well as title, you can copy and paste the information from the My Checkout page into Notepad and save that as a text file to your desktop.  Open Excel and locate and open the text file (be sure to have Excel look for All Files, not just Excel files).  The Text Import Wizard will pop up.  Choose “delimited”.  On the next screen check off both Tab and Other, entering a / in the Other box. At that point, you can click on finish and you will have a spreadsheet with columns for title, author, checkout date and return date.


We have made an enhancement request to SirsiDynix to make My Checkout History sortable within the system but these are useful workarounds.
