Print Loans & Hire List

A script step-through article to produce a printable list of instruments/equipment currently on loan/hire

Updated this week

This script is found at Common Tasks > Printouts > Loans & Hire : Print List. It includes the following information:

  • Student Full Name

  • Instrumental Teacher Last Name

  • Form

  • Item

  • Ref No.

  • Date Borrowed

  • Phone Number

  • Notes

The computer will automatically work through a number of steps:

First it will enter FIND MODE, allowing you to enter your own search criteria. However, you will notice that in the Record Status field, a find request has already been entered i.e. 'Current'. This will find all the instruments currently outstanding (or, at least those that haven't had a return date typed in!) You can modify the search criteria, however, by typing in your own request before selecting Continue.

NOTE: As at April 2026, this report does not account for the new "Overdue" status that applies to records whose Due Date has passed without a Return Date being entered. To include overdue items in your search:

  • Select the green + button to add a new search request

  • In the Status field on that second request, select "Overdue"

The computer will then FIND the records specified by your criteria and sort them by Teacher Last Name and then Student Last Name.

It will then take you to a different LAYOUT of this information (the 'Print List' layout).

It will then pause for you to have a look at the information.

If you're happy with the Preview, select the Print icon at the top of the screen and select Print or Save as PDF .

Close the window when you have finished.
