New ot Music/Books in Resources

Read Now
 
In v8.1.07 and above there are a couple of new and exciting developments. On the Instrumentation tab there is a new button to 'Quick-Add Multiple Instruments'.

Picture
Takes you to a screen where a list of possible instrumentation/voicings will be displayed. (This list is the same list as the Ensemble Part list. It's using the same records so any changes/deletions/additions made to the records on this screen will impact the Ensemble Part dropdown list.).
Picture
​The Quantity field (yellow) is a temporary field. Data is not stored permanently in this field. Enter a number in the Quantity field next to the instrument/voicings that you wish to add to the piece of music. ONLY records with a number in the Quantity field will be added. Click 'Continue'. The tagged records will be imported into the Resources file and you will finish on the same screen you started.

Two new fields in Music/Books Resources

Read Now
 
In v 8.0.96 and above there are two new fields for 'Music/Books': Audio Link, Date In Folder.

These have been added to the Additional Notes tab. Both are text fields.
Picture
​In Audio Link you can copy and paste a url. The

Date In Folder can be used to record details of the last time music was used in an ensemble group's folders. (So it may not necessarily have been performed but it was USED/rehearsed with that group.)

Changes in the Resource File

Read Now
 
In v8.0.82 and above there are several changes in the resource file

1.​ New script in the Scripts menu > Resource management > Enter return date for FOUND SET.
You can find a group of records, eg. all Year 7 Program instruments and enter today's date in the Date Returned field for them all at once. (It shows a message first to make sure they really want to do that!) 

Picture
 2. List View - Hire Description is now visible on this layout 
Picture
3. List View - the 'Delete record' x at the far right of the rows has been removed and replaced with 'OMIT' button. Don't want to make it too easy for teachers to delete resources. 
Picture
​They can still delete by going to the Form View and clicking 'Delete this Resource' red button. 
Picture
4. When clicking 'Instruments' from the menu, the list will now sort by Category 2 (instrument type), then serial number, then reference number. (Previously sorted by Category 2 only.)
​
5. Form View: Name of current hirer now appears underneath the big red letters stating the instrument type (or music category) and description. Current hirer could always be seen in the Borrowing Details tab, but it makes it clearer and easier having that information displayed here as well.
