Standard Reporting
Designed for:
This course is aimed at day to day users of SIMS,
responsible for adding and maintaining data in the database and responsible for
responding to various requests for information from SIMS. Delegates must be
familiar with the use of SIMS, be familiar with how data is entered and
maintained, the range of data stored in the database and be able to navigate
their way around the menus. Delegates are likely to have attended other SIMS
user courses such as SIMS Office User and SIMS Office User Top Tips and
Techniques. Having consolidated the information covered in this course,
delegates would benefit from moving on to the Extended Reporting course.
