Wish List - Data Set ID in List Reports

Recommended Posts

As a confirmed user of multiple data sets in my main project, I wish I could include Data Set ID as a column in List reports. You can do this in List of People, but not other List reports.

 

I use one data set for people I know are connected to me, and others for people who may be, or who I have investigated and probably are not. It is useful to have two or more data sets open when looking for overlaps/duplication, but a pain not to be able to see in a report which DS a person is in.

Neil,

 

for the vast majority of List of.... reports you should be able to get what you desire. Although not always as a separate column.....

 

List of Citations > Options > Names > check "show data set ID"

List of Events > Options > Output Columns > Prin1 ID and/or Prin2 ID

List of Names > Options > Output Columns > Data Set ID

List of People > Options > Output Columns > Data Set ID

List of Repositories > Options > General > Names > check "show data set ID"

List of Sources > Options > General > check "show data set ID"

List of Tasks > Options > Names > check "show data set ID"

List of Witnesses > Options > Output Columns > Prin1 ID and/or Prin2 ID

Thanks, Vera

 

I should have said I was particularly interested in List of Events and List of Witnesses, where you confirm you can only get the person ID - that would be OK if this included the Data Set ID, , e.g. 1:123 or 2:123. They just show 123.
