| Salary Distribution Change Request Form | Instead
of waiting to find the report in the process monitor, the Distribution
Form will immediately pop up when you press the Process or
Reprint Report button. The Cost Justification form will also pop up, in
a separate PDF document. MAKE SURE YOUR POP-UP BLOCKER IS OFF, or HOLD DOWN THE CNTL Button before
pressing the button to ensure that your pop-up report output will not
be blocked. The original report was created with the Crystal
Report tool, which is no longer supported in this version of
PeopleTools. The report may now be spread across more pages than the 9.1 version. We will continue to work to improve the appearance and size of this report. | A Crystal Report was generated and retreived from the Process Monitor. | Faster access tor report output, but must remember to allow pop-up. The appearance of the report is slightly different. |
