Online Datatel Users' Manual

The Datatel Users' Manual, written by the Comptroller's staff, is now included on this Web site for your convenience.

Providing this manual online offers you several benefits:

• It is easy to access the manual online through the World Wide Web.  If you are working in Colleague and you want to read the section on a certain mnemonic (i.e., GLSA) before you run a report, you can simply pull this Web site up in your browser and get into that section of the manual with a few clicks of your mouse.
  
• Since the manual will be updated in the future, providing it online also makes it much easier to update quickly, without having to re-release expensive paper copies of the manual to end-users.
  
• Finally, this Online Manual lends itself to quick and easy searches by using the "Find" icon on the Command Bar in Adobe Reader:

The sections of this manual are all in PDF format.
