Project Management - Reports
“There are so many reports I’m not sure where to look first.”
Project Management - Reports• The School of Medicine has strived to create useful grant
management reports tapping all sources of data and has made them available to the university community via the Corporate Repository. It recommends utilizing Business Objects for the purposes of monthly monitoring. The Business Objects reports are the only reports available that can provide a summary overview with alerters of all the funds for which an ORG is responsible (i.e. RESP ORG).
