-====== Technote Reports - Inventory ======+====== Reports - Inventory ====== 
 + 
 +There are several ways to export the current status of Inventory from TapeTrack using: 
 +  * [[#tapemaster-inventory-reports|TapeMaster]] 
 +  * [[#lite-inventory-reports|Lite]] 
 +  * [[#command-line-inventory-reports|Command Line programs]] 
 + 
 +Which method suits your requirement depends on the information required in the report, as well as frequency the reports are required. 
 + 
 +[[desktop:master|TapeTrack TapeMaster]] and [[desktop:lite|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 [[cli:TMSS10Inventory|TMSS10Inventory ]]   that can then be saved to file, emailed and/or [[cli:tmss10uploadfile|uploaded to the TapeTrack Server]] allowing clients to download ([[master:upload_files#right-click-functions|TapeMaster]], [[desktop:lite|TapeTrack Lite]] or [[cli:tmss10downloadfile|TMSS10DownloadFile]]) without the need to create the reports themselves. 
 + 
 +===== Desktop Programs Inventory Reports ===== 
 + 
 +==== TapeMaster Inventory Reports ==== 
 + 
 +[[desktop:master|TapeTrack TapeMaster]] allows you to export to report one [[object:customer|Customer's]] [[object:media|Media Type]] at a time via the Inventory window or all [[object:customer|Customers]] and [[object:media|Media Types]] using the [[master:tools_global_view|Volume Global View]] function. 
 + 
 +Using the [[master:tools_global_view|Volume Global View]] function has an added advantage of being able to dynamically filter the data using [[object:customer|Customer-ID]], [[object:media|Media-ID]], [[object:volume|Volume-ID]], [[object:repository|Location]], [[common:volume_flags|Flags]], Move Dates, last User interaction and last Program Interaction before exporting results to a report. 
 + 
 +==== Examples ==== 
 + 
 +=== TapeMaster Inventory Window Report === 
 + 
 +To export report from the TapeMaster Inventory window, select the required [[object:volume|Volumes]], press Ctrl+E, or right-click and select ''Export''.  Select the required report format from the popup window and click OK.
