DRS reports contain the data for all deposits made into the DRS2, Harvard's digital repository. These reports are saved in a folder titled "DRS Reports" according to fiscal year for OTC orders, i.e H:\Imaging_and_Houghton\spreadsheets 20XX-20XX\DRS Reports, and in the "Metadata" subfolder for project digitization, i.e H:\Imaging_and_Houghton\Projects\MODBM\Dickinson Family Library\Metadata\DRS Reports. 

DRS reports are delivered via email from the sender "drs2-support@hulmail.harvard.edu," with a subject line beginning "DRS LOAD REPORT." The frequency of delivery is based on workflows at Imaging Services.

 

Saving DRS Reports

Image Added

DRS Reports are delivered to recipients with a long subject line. These emails contain the DRS report data in a downloadable .txt file, as well as in the body of the email. 

Step 1. Download the DRS report .txt file, and move to either "DRS Reports" folder, for OTC orders or to a "Metadata" subfolder for a digital project.

Step 2. Rename the DRS report text file. The .txt file will download with a long, numeric name. The example highlighted above downloaded as "1547829841-516415_5196965450434149301521466." The files are renamed using the last portion of the email's subject. For the above example "1547829841-516415_5196965450434149301521466" would be renamed "ORDER_516415_519696_20190118 [DB:725683]"
