Report Generation

[harry-bridge]

SU have asked for an inventory list so a PDF output for this should be added, long term plan would be to have generic report generation so if someone wanted to see just all the prices for assets or when they were purchased or all the things that need to be inspected by the rigging man that should be possible, but long term plan.

Probably spreadsheet output is better than PDF...Don't have to style it for one!

@FreneticScribbler Might I suggest CSV over excel for simplicity, although excel isn’t difficult as it’s just a ZIPed XML

[harry-bridge]

Both was the original idea, along with picking whatever fields you wanted to go into the report

[FreneticScribbler]

Indeed, but CSV will take less time to implement and therefore could be implemented earlier 😛

[harry-bridge]

Never said which you had to do first, just saying that the insurance company people once asked for a PDF so you shouldn't discount adding it because it's a bit more effort

[FreneticScribbler]

Oh they specifically asked for PDF?

[mattysmith22]

Is there any chance of getting an example report, so that I can see what needs to be on it?

[FreneticScribbler]

Weightsheet generation... 🤔

[mattysmith22]

That would be different from the inventory report, though feel free to create an issue so we can start discussion!
