Update 2025 not working--mobile reports-program
Ronald Lashley replied to CHRIS HAGON's topic in Tech Support
Had the same issue while in Canada last week while shopping. My collection was no longer in the mobile app or the wanted reports I created. Only the value was showing. -
Can we have previous selections separate in both selections? Is it a bit of a pain to have to keep changing the input selection when you go from one to the other?

Lables Dates, Barcode and Barcode Nomenclature.
Ronald Lashley replied to Ronald Lashley's topic in Feature Suggestions
Thanks, sorry, I'm just now seeing this one. I guess I'll need to upgrade what I have. One last thing on this topic... When you right-click on a title you have the option of Print Price Labels and Identification Labels. Is there a way to set defaults for both of them? It falls in line with the above. No matter which one I click I have to change. I print two labels, one with just the barcode and the other with the comic information and pic like the above. -

Yes i am able to do that. I am now able to scan in barcodes from comics but still unable to scan in the barcodes CB creates. -

Update. I looked at the order and even though it said Upgrade to ComicBase Archive + DX Laser Barcode Scanner 11/27/2017 My laser I think is actually the DX Laser Mark 2 Model. The DX ones aren't usb and mine is. So I downloaded https://www.comicbase.com/Support/Easy_Setup_Guide_CB_DX_Laser_Mk_2.pdf Used the reset then tried the Easy Setup. Still not working. So reset and tried the Expert and still not working. Unistalled the CB2023 Archive and reinstalled it and the scanner Easy Setup and still no dice. Its not even finding the barcodes on the comics. Its transmitting all the digits as i see it in the Find screen but still coming up with -

I do not have the oroiginal that came with it. I went to the site and printed out the one listed there chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.comicbase.com/Support/CB_DX_Laser_Scanner_Setup.pdf Now when i even type in the B#######D code it tells me "No Results Found". Not one of them is working. So now i fear none of the Barcode along with the numenclatures work. It is now not even scanning in the comics barcode. This is #FUBAR -

Suggestion. Reports by Publishers
Ronald Lashley replied to Ronald Lashley's topic in Feature Suggestions
Thanks, for those workarounds, as I did start doing it that way. Just wanted to add a suggestion for future editions that may have been thought of but not implemented. Hopefully being able to run report parameters could be implemented to allow better tracking, filing, and separation based on publisher and not just comic title. In the early stages of my having CB, I took the time (I was bored) to run the reports based on Comic Titles. Then I would notate on the PDF the draw location of that collection. At least then, I could store each PDF under Marvel, DC, or Indie and merge those files. That got old fast as a solution for ongoing tracking, retriveal, and storage maintenance. -
Lables Dates, Barcode and Barcode Nomenclature.
Ronald Lashley posted a topic in Feature Suggestions
Right now, the Labels show you most of what you see on screen for the title i.e. Title, Variation, and Condition. Would be great to be able to print the pub date as well and as seen on the screen. Also right now I'm printing two labels because, for some reason no matter what I do, my barcode scanner scans in the comics with no problem but when I go to print the label, the scanner won't scan the barcode the system created so I manually type in the system created 9 digit nomenclature under the barcode that comes in the identification Label. So is there a way to have the label print out the first suggestion (date) along with Price, Bacrodes with Nomenclature, and for the sake of room Storylines or writers and artists if Bacrodes with Nomenclature is selected? Right now i'm taking the non-picture price list barcode with the storyline and writers and artists label and placing it on the to back and the Identification Label with Cover Pic and barcodes with nomenclature on the back bottom of my bagged and boarded book. But would prefer to have just one. If i can ever figure out the scanner issue I would stick with the Price one (with the added date feature. -
For those of us that split our collections by publishers, is there a way to run a report that way or at least as Marvel, DC, and Indie? If not, I'd like to suggest that option. I know I like to separate my collection by publishers. Or at least by the three listed above.

I think he can get both the same way. One of my reports does that now but I don't Quick Report it to run the crystal report to export to excel
-
Update. I was able to export to excel just the comics owned. I did a simple one where i did my list of to be graded. Once done I selected them all then Right Clicked and ran Quick Report which spits out a Crystal Report. From there you are able to export to excel or csv.
-
I'm sorry I wasn't following correctly, as you're trying to export to excel (which is an excellent idea for creating your reports). Still, I only want the basic information I accomplished by doing. Report - Collection Report - and the following settings. (I knew it couldn't be that simple) that only offers HTML or Text, not .csv files. So I print it as PDF for my records.

Suggestion for Mobile App and Scanning
Ronald Lashley replied to Ronald Lashley's topic in Feature Suggestions
Correct. Ideally scan it and it shows quantity have or if it was one from my wanted list would also be helpful. Since I have two mobiles, what I do is scan with one phone and use "find" on the other. Not ideal. -
I am going to take a look because I have done this with only owned titles as I keep a PDF for insurance purposes.
-
I have always had the archive addition. However i have no interest in selling any of my collection. So wondering what features will i loose if i decide to give Pro a try.

Books with multiple editions and publishers
Ronald Lashley replied to Andrew d’Entremont's topic in Tech Support
If it is a different publisher, I think it is a new book. I would enter it as a new book and submit it if it's not already in the system. I know when I've done that, the entire run shows up in the next update. -
I appreciate the mobile scanning feature when I'm out searching for comics. I have three suggestions and reasons for them to improve the app. 1. How many of us have been out and repurchased a 3rd or 4th of something we already have? (Raising Hand) this guy right here. Being able to cut down on that (unless I wanted to add another copy) and having access to my collection information on my mobile was one of the biggest selling points for me and keeps me renewing my membership. With that said, when you scan in a comic, and it populates with the content of that comic, it would help a lot if it also informed you if you already have this book in your collection with a line item titled "Own _____" above the "Add Qty___" line. I point this out because we either have to be the Rainman or be a Mentat to recall that information right then and there or leave the scan to go back to our Auto Report and scroll for days through our collection to see if we have it or not. 2. MN Guide data. It's great to see the NM Guide cost once the scan pulls up; however, if selected from the "Condition" pull down, another helpful thing might be to know the cost at that chosen condition. Right now, the feature of # of copies on Atomic Avenue is a great alternative to get price ranges, but again it takes us out of the app (well, not me; I have a dual-screen LG), and there are cases there are no available copies on Atomic Avenue so you would then have to click on Writer or Artist to get into Atomic avenue and manually type in the title. 3. If we scan it, another great addition would be another line item showing if we already marked this issue as one of our coveted "Wanted" items and, if not, the option to add it to our database as one we did want if we decide not to buy it at that time. I am pleased with the app and its faster scanning and pulling up comics when I'm out. I have realized that after you scan and go back to scan again, you have to tap the screen for the camera to open again. This might be something with my mobile, but I'm not sure. Thanks again to the app's programmers for making our (my) lives much more manageable.

Printed Barcode Labels both Pricing and ID
Ronald Lashley replied to Ronald Lashley's topic in Tech Support
Thanks, i will give this a try. Tonight I'm attempting to get the app to upload my newly created segmented "wanted list" that does show up on my online account but for some reason, the app only wants to show the Collection Overview-ComicBooks (auto) report. Trying to sort this out before I go hunting at the ECCC tomorrow. I'm going to try uninstalling the app and reinstalling it now. -

Planet of the Apes Green Lantern
Ronald Lashley replied to Ronald Lashley's topic in News & General Discussion
Sorry just now seeing this one as i needed to change my settings to see notifications of responses. The barcode is 84428400591300191. When scanned it takes me to 1/h But when you scroll up you will see its actual cover under 1/C which is another Virgin cover. In CombicBase 1/H has no image so when i searched the web 1/H is the link i provided above. I went ahead and submitted the correction through DBase after updating the UPC Code in 1/C. I don't have the UPC Code for 1/H -
