Tutorial #5 - Handling Loans

One frequently used function for all home-users is probably the loan management. Movie Label keeps track of your loans for you and even let you send reminder emails to those who tend to return your DVDs late.

Adding your Friends
Before you can start tracking your loans you need to define at least one person. To do this, you need to switch to the Loan Manager and click the New-button in the toolbar. When you have done this you can switch back to the Movie section to manage your first loan.

The Loan Bar
The first thing you should do is to show the Loan Bar (choose Loans from the Action-menu). Now select the person that you just created. Finally select one or more DVDs and click the Apply-button. The DVDs will now be listed in the Loan Manger and the Entries view will show a small picture in the left most column for each entry on loan.

Returning a Loan
You can return loans from the Loan Manager or in the Movie section (by choosing Return Loan from the Action-menu).
