Starting and Ending a Work Session
Once the system manager has configured MERLIN LEGEND Reporter for “users,” a
work session should start by “logging in” and end by “logging out.” This preserves
system security, in that only those allowed to run reports or delete or change data can do
so.

To start a session, select the “Login!” entry from the “startup” menu:
a. Type your User ID, tab to the next entry
and type your Password (asterisks
mask your entries), then click OK.

Reporter menu appears, open the
