No. You need some basic knowledge to run elog. Without this knowledge, it's better if you use some other package. |

 | Dennis Seitz | dseitz@berkeley.edu | Question | All | | Summary view: View only most recent entry for all values of a given attribute? |
We are using Elog to track status of hardware assemblies. One attribute we've created is the serial number of an assembly. Other attributes are items like "location" and "status". We have set up these latter attributes with presets to make entry easy and keep entries consistent.
I would like to filter the summary view so it only shows me the most recent entry for every value in the serial number attribute. This would be very useful for quickly viewing the present status and location of every assembly, for example.
I can't find a way to do this in the documentation. Is it possible? If not, may I submit a request for this feature?
I am very impressed with the Elog and it has become an essential part of our record keeping. Thank you for a very useful and well implemented application! |

I don't know if that is what you want, but have you tried clicking on the column headings in the summary view to sort the table according to that attribute:

Rather than simply sorting, I would like to actually reduce the number of entries listed to show only the most recent entry for each serial number. In this way, I can see at a glance what the present status of each serial number is. This is similar to Quick Filters but would be a "Most Recent" filter that could be applied conditionally, for example: "Most Recent" -> "By Serial".
Here is the display now:
Here is what I'd like to have the option to view (I used a graphic editor to fake it):
It would also be nice to have the option to then sort the resultant view, for example, to group together all serial numbers that have the same status.
Is this a little clearer? It's just a suggestion - this is not terribly important, but if it were possible I think it would be useful.
Thanks! |

Ok, now I understand. Well, your request is very special for your case. Usually I implement things only if several independent people ask for it. What you can try is to save your logbook in CSV format, import it into Excel or another spreadsheet program, and achieve the filtering there.
Best regards,

OK, I've done that before and it works fine. I'd rather be able to do it in Elog but I understand if it's not worth the effort. It never hurts to ask!
Cheers,

I ended with 125384 entries like the one above.
Everything works fine but ......... [U]tteerrrriibbllee[/U] [B]slow[/B]. CPU usage is constant at 99%.
I tried to split the one file produced by the import into 2 chunks but that did not improve the situation.
My question is : Is there a rule of thumb for the size of the "database" in which elog keeps it's performance, or better : is there a solution for this for elog.
