A how-to primer
• A great presentation on custom services with simple examples on Support Web
• How to make custom services by Yoel Kortick
• http://www.customercenter.exlibrisgroup.com/DocumentationCenter/Ex

Straight from Yoel
• Custom programs for custom services must be placed in the $aleph_proc directory (alias ap).
• Typically the service file name in $aleph_proc will be called p_custom_nn (such as p_custom_01), It may however be called anything you want, such as p_custom_jimmy_01
• The screens for custom services must be placed in $aleph_root/pc_b_eng (or $alephe_root/pc_b_eng depending on setup)

Service #1:Patron Editing
• Select a group of Patron (i.e ret_01)
• Be able to view those patron records
• Edit patron via a global change (i.e. manage-21)

Service #2 Cash-05 plus
• Currently Cash-05 only allows the ability to select by Sublibrary and date range
• Modify Cash-05 to include selection by Transaction Type and Patron Status
• Instead of writing a service from scratch, just replace the transaction selection process
