Volume Global View allows you to view and/or search volumes across all customers and media types within the one report.

To open Volume Global View select from the main menu Tools → Volume Global View.

The Global View Scope window opens with wildcard (*) values for each search field by default which will include every volume within TapeTrack in the report.

The output results can be focused at this stage if a more refined report is preferred by using String Filters on the Customer ID or Description field and/or the Media ID or Description field.

Click OK to continue to the Volume Global View.

  • Volume Total: Number of volumes across all Customer ID's.
