When a customized class ends, don’t forget to go back in the database to the class roster and check “Completed” for those participants that completed the class. This step is important in order to have accurate reporting records.
Each customized course needs to have the cost entered in the Course Section Detail and within the Expenditures tab.
If an active worker has their status box checked “Other” or “Retired” within the tab Participants - ICD Data they will not be counted as part of participation.

Whenever using the search feature, you can expand your search by using a wildcard by typing % before your requested search.
