AAM Report Headings

Last updated
AAM report headings are the titles which appear above each circulation amount on the Daily Circulation Report and the History report (both required for AAM reporting). The circulation amount itself is made up of one or more AAM columns.
Report headings are user-defined and usually break down circulation totals horizontally by use or delivery method. The reports are organized vertically by product and, within each product, by AAM zone plus Bulk, Unpaid, and Paid Complimentary (see the example of the Tribune Daily Circulation Report on The Tribune - Daily Circulation Report). The Paid Complimentary AAM report heading and content are automatically printed, rather than being user-defined. However, you must set up AAM report headings for your AAM zones and the Bulk and Unpaid AAM report areas. See AAM Column for more information on setting up AAM columns.
Headings for price levels (see the previous option) are also defined here.
In character Circulation, select AAM Report Headings from the AAM menu to display the AAM Report Heading screen.
