Admin Extracting Data from KLAS for Crystal Reports This webinar demonstrates the process of extracting data from KLAS to be used in the Crystal Reports report writer. Data from the Patron Module is selected, and limited to just active institutions to allow for a quick extraction of the data. As part of the extraction process, the system opens Crystal Reports. At that point, we demonstrate building a simple report using the extracted data. Webex Player Format

Admin Adding a Security Group Security groups are a means of grouping users with similar job requirements. Permissions can be established for a security group, and would then apply to all users associated with the group. This webinar will go through the steps of adding a new security group, associating users with that group and indicating which security group should be the default for all new users. A separate webinar will be given on creating the user permissions for a security group. Webex Player Format
