  1. I scanned surveys, but some Call #’s do not appear in my Reports drop-down list?
    All scanned data will be placed in the drop-down list of the person that first scanned to that Call # during a specific Semester. One common situation is that students accidentally transpose and bubble in the incorrect Call #. If the Call # is valid and belongs to a different department, the system will still put the scanned data and the valid Call #, in the drop-down list of the person that first scanned to that Call #. If a Call # does not display in your drop-down list, please contact Yescenia Flores at 485-0438 or yflores@alamo.edu for assistance with retrieving the needed reports.
