Activity Report changes
August 26, 2011, 11:49:56 am
I'm starting to use the Activity Reports heavily for an organization that needs to track volunteers and the time they spend on various activities.  I've run into two problems with the Activity Reports

  • Duration is not included in the results.  I've created a custom report which now has this functionality for both the Summary and Detail Report, but would love to know how to right justify a field on the report using $header.type setting.
  • If you select the contact name, it selects all of the contact names listed in the Activity.  For example, if I add time in for the volunteers, it will report each of the people listed in "Added By" (me), "With Contact" and "Assigned To", so one Activity record can show up to 3 times on the report.  I would like to be able to say "Just With Contact Name".  Should I add in the three selection criteria?

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.  Didn't know if this could help anyone - I'd be happy to post the new code.

Another new thing I'm finding I need is to add a filter on Groups.  For example, they want a report of all people that teach ESL separate from the basic literacy courses.  I'll be adding that in a few days.
