(Note: m-Fin Financial Statements training is required for access to the PeopleSoft Finance System in addition to the Finance System training.)

This training shows how to access the Cognos Reporting System, how to read the statements and what information to pay the most attention to. Each class is tailored to match the skills and needs of the participants, so it may review a few basics that you already know. There will be plenty of time for questions and answers on specific problems you have. Since this is a hands-on class, you are encouraged to bring your statements and SpeedTypes to run in class.

This hands-on workshop answers questions about your monthly statements:

  • How do I access and run these reports?
  • How the heck do I read these things?
  • What are they supposed to tell me?
  • What is the most important information to pay attention to?
  • How do I find out how this transaction got on my statement?
  • How do I correct an error?
  • How do I use these statements to advise my unit head?

We review the following Cognos Reporting System m-Fin statements:

  • SpeedType Summary
  • Operating Summary
  • Revenue and Expenditure Summary
  • Financial Detail
  • Balance Sheet Summary
  • ePERS reports also receive some coverage
