Do you have a clients.datatel.com login?

If you have a Datatel/Colleague question and you'd like to see if anyone in the wider Datatel community has encountered it, you can search the question on the Datatel User's Community Forums. You can access the forums via the clients.datatel.com website. It's a great way to get help and network. Something we don't always have a chance to do. Often, you can see what the common threads are, what upgrades colleges are looking into and what issues others are running into or have fixed. It's like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are going to get.
