Are you still using Legacy reports? It's easy to check. Go to Reports. On the left side, choose Patrons > Legacy or Copies > Legacy, then click on the Saved tab at the top of the screen. If you have any saved reports using those templates, it's time to recreate them in a newer format; the old ones are now obsolete. Our custom label reports for both patrons and copies offer advanced, field-level customization so you can design labels that fits your specific needs.

Note

As of 7.18.8, most Legacy reports have been removed. Restored reports are not supported.

Label Customization

Custom label reports contain loose representation of an actual label in height and width; these are not meant to be an exact—just enough to get a rough feel for how they are laid out. Each field in the template can be customized using the options on the right. Formatting options can vary based on the type of data you've chosen to display in that field. For example, a barcode image cannot be bold.

When you're finished customizing your labels, click Create Saved Report so it's ready the next time you need it. Remember to give it a descriptive title so you know exactly what the labels are formatted for.

Tip

The default font size is small, fitting on one row. However, the font used in some legacy reports may match the Large option on new label reports, which takes up two fields. Try it out and use what works best for you.

Example

In Legacy reports, you could choose a format that would automatically customize your labels. In new label reports, you get to do the customizing. Here's an example of how the new labels can be formatted to match the old Legacy formats using the same information.
