When requesting FAMIS reports through our web site, you can choose to have the report go to INFOVIEW. To obtain viewing access for these reports, send an e-mail request to FAMIS Production Services, specifying your FAMIS UserID and the name of the INFOVIEW reports you want to view.
After access is granted, you may view the reports by clicking on the Production link on our navigation menu and then clicking on the DDRINT button or go directly to http://mobius/.
Screen 58 Added to FAMIS
Screen 58 (Support Acct Category Maintenance) has been created to allow departmental users to update budget category controls.
Contact your security officer if you need access to this new screen.
CANOPY Updates
As changes are made to CANOPY, they are recorded in the release history of the program. After logging in to CANOPY, click on the "System" tab and then click on the "Release History" link.
For example, viewing the release history will show new features that have been added to CANOPY, as well as other enhancements and program fixes.
In November, DBR pages were added to allow searching, creation, viewing, modifying, completing, routing of DBRs.
In addition to changes made, there is now a large font theme for those who prefer to view CANOPY with larger text displayed.
