Process Manager reports use information from the iMIS database to present useful information to stakeholders. To access Process Manager reports, you must be assigned either to the Opportunity User group or to the Reporting group.

Standard Reports are available when you first open Process Manager. When you run a report, you might be asked to supply parameters (data required to run the report) or to choose options from a list.

To print Crystal reports (which includes both Print to Screen and Print PDF file to Screen), you must have Adobe® Reader® installed on both the server and your workstation. Go to the Adobe website to download the free reader software.
