Preview of Facilities to Come

You can also use the pre-implementation period as an opportunity to "sell" the online viewing capabilities of Control-D to the users. You can give them a flavor of the benefits of online viewing. This should whet their appetite to use the Online Viewing facility. A quick demonstration of viewing, selective printing, and pre-defined report rulers should be shown.

You can announce when each of the "previews" will occur and supply the users with a timetable for the implementation of online viewing. Of course, this will be affected by the number of reports to be viewed online, the response from the user surveys, and the number of people wanting to use the online facilities.
