General Instructions on using the System

The APR is comprised of ten sections, listed under the Table of Contents. When you click on Table of Contents, the list of sections will appear on the left hand side of the screen. You may complete the form in any order. Each section, A through J, is comprised of several subsections, each included under a separate "tab". In order to complete a section of the form, you will click on the tab header, and that section of the form will open. On each page, once you have entered information and are ready to move to another section of the form, you must click the "Save Report" button in order to save the information you have entered.

Additional 'Instruction" Boxes

In many sections of the form, there are gray-bordered boxes that appear at the top of the page. In this box, you will see specific instruction for this particular page of the form. For example, the box may advise that you must complete a specific section of the page in order to save the page before moving to a new section. If the instruction is not followed, when you attempt to save the page, an error message will appear that will inform you of your required action.

Moving Through the Reporting System

You may move from any section of the reporting form to any other section by clicking on the tabs on the top and to the left of your screen. This will take you directly to the section you wish to complete. You need not fill in this report from "front" to "end" in order.

Taking a Break

The average time to complete this form is 90 minutes. Additional time may be needed to collect the information to enter into this form. It is designed so that you can respond at your convenience and in separate sessions. If you do not have all the information on hand to answer a specific question, you may SAVE the answers you have provided and close the reporting form until you obtain the data needed. If other staff members are more familiar with some topics, you may ask them to fill out those sections or questions.

If you need to take a break or have someone else work on the report, click "SAVE REPORT" and close out of the form (see Saving Your Responses below). To re-enter the reporting form, you simply follow the same instructions with which you opened this form initially.

Saving Your Responses

At any time you may save your responses in the report by clicking on the "SAVE REPORT" button at the bottom of each page.
