Dear All

I'd like to raise the issue of pFACT user documentation at the user 
group in November, but just wonder if it is something that others are 
worried about or have you all written your own? I have to confess that 
we rely on a small 'Introduction to pFACT leaflet' which just gives new 
users the very basics on getting started.

I've just checked and the latest guides we have - one for PIs and one 
for Systems Users, were last updated in 2007 by Baum Hart and relate to 
version 2.2.  Most of us are now using v 2.03 I think. These guides are 
also very long (PI Guide - 117 pages!) and not easy to use asthey 
evolved with the original system I think. I think they could do with 
being re-written, unless anyone is aware of a later/ better version?

Alternatively, might it be possible for a university which has produced 
their own more user-friendly guide(s) to make these available, through 
Unit4, to all users to adapt for their own purposes and be compensated 
by Unit4, perhaps through a reduction in the service charge?

Any thoughts on this please, including from Unit4?

Thanks

Best wishes
Hazel
