LIMS administrator training for IMUA.  Crystal Reports basic & intermediate training (this is an ongoing need), migration of existing Crystal Reports templates from LIMS 3.x to IMUA.  Migration of existing data extension fields & other user customizations from 3.x to IMUA.

I agree on IMUA and Crystal Report Training. Also, will iResults and iPrelog be having a drastic update when IMUA launches?

Crystal Report training is always beneficial, but I would love to see some advanced training as well.  Techniques such as sub reports, conditional formating and table linking more than three tables are usually not included in the begining classes.  I would love to know some of the tricks that make the canned reports so much prettier than mine.

I woul hope that sub reports and table linking would be included in intermediate level training.  Subreports are needed in most Crystal report templates, and any Crystal report is useless if it isn't properly configured and linked to the database.  These are essential skills if you're going to add ot make major changes to reports without having to call Technical Support.  Also, training on how to make and configure/link data extension fields would also be very useful.

Hi All,

We will be tailoring the Crystal Class to the LIMS-plus v3 application and will definitely factor in all of the suggestions in this forum and any other suggestions from attendees, so please keep the suggestions coming!

Chad,

We are currently in development with iPrelog and iResults for IMUA.  So the changes will be noticeable, but I don't have specifics on them yet.  Is there something in particular you are looking for?
