Running a Report:

• To access your report, scroll down on the page until you get to the section entitled "My Reports"

  • Click on the "Clear Filter" button to remove your filter criteria.
     
• Once you have found the report you want to run (for example: the 202), click on the name of the report (in this case, Active Students) located under the "Report Name" column.
  
• To close out of the report, click on the X at the upper right hand corner
