Installation Guide
The Reporting Software Installation Guide is for anyone installing the software for the first time or upgrading from a previous version. Before you download one of our software packages, determine which option is best suited to your needs.
User Guides
After you have installed a Reporting Software Option, explore their features in the appropriate user guide:
- Option A – Desktop software for Windows which provides electronic data entry forms similar to the paper forms. We recommend this option for most users who have application or sales data to report.
- Option B – A desktop application that requires Microsoft Excel on Windows. This option is recommended for users of Excel, but does require some additional configuration.
- Option C – This desktop application is for users who export their PRL report files from a third-party application and want to validate the files.
- Option D – Formatted Excel spreadsheets with none of the features provided by Option B. This option is recommended for users having difficulty installing Option B, users with small amounts of data to enter or Macintosh users of Excel.
