RFC : Better statistics about acquisitions

This RFC re-makes /report/acquisitions_stats.pl The goal would be to be able to use this tool to follow acquisitions practices by librarians. This RFC speculates that 2 authorized values fields will be added to a budget (see Refining the budgets hierarchy and informations RFC)

Two things are separated out: filters to select the information; definition of a visualization by the librarian.

Filters. The following filters can be used (at once):

  • order date : from date; to date
  • reception date : from date; to date
  • library branch
  • localisation
  • vendor
  • librarian login
  • budget
  • budget authorized value #1
  • budget authorized value #2

Visualization. Once the set of data is filtered, one can select informations to be shown in the report:

  • all of the above (from order date to budget authorized value #2)
  • short bibliographic informations
  • call number
  • location
  • item type
  • price

Koha still, as it does, lets the user choose between screen and csv output.
