Reports - Inventory
There are several ways to export the current status of Inventory from TapeTrack using:
Which method suits your requirement depends on the information required in the report, as well as frequency the reports are required.
TapeTrack TapeMaster and TapeTrack Lite allow dynamic creation of Inventory reports that have variable output or on demand requirements.
Inventory reports that are required on a regular basis can be created using TMSS10Inventory that can then be saved to file, emailed and/or uploaded to the TapeTrack Server allowing clients to download (TapeMaster, TapeTrack Lite or TMSS10DownloadFile) without the need to create the reports themselves.
Desktop Programs Inventory Reports
TapeMaster Inventory Reports
TapeTrack TapeMaster allows you to export to report one Customer's Media Type at a time via the Inventory window or all Customers and Media Types using the Volume Global View function.
Using the Volume Global View function has an added advantage of being able to dynamically filter the data using Customer-ID, Media-ID, Volume-ID, Location, Flags, Move Dates, last User interaction and last Program Interaction before exporting results to a report.
