Just like the previous version of EDL, when your first login a Java Security Warning pop-up box appears. Simply check the box that reads "I accept the risk and want to run this application." Also, click the blue arrow next to Hide Options and check the box that reads "Do not show this again for apps from the publisher and location above." When finished, select Run. |  |
You should see the list of reports. If not, just select the Reports link (ignore the 'x for Future Use' link).
|  |
You will then see another Security Warning pop-up box. Check the box that reads "Do not show this again..." & then select Allow. |  |
You should see the list of reports. If not, just select the Report link (in red) and it will expand the list of reports. |  |
The way you search for reports remains unchanged. Simply select the Locate icon (looks like a magnifying glass) in the upper left to perform a search. |  |
When you select a report, it will automatically open as a PDF in a separate window. You can now choose to print or save the PDF, just like you would on any other websitebrowse the PDF by clicking the forward and back arrows in EDL, and you can print it like before (clicking the Printer icon) or save it as a PDF.
Note: Some IE users may see a yellow bar along the bottom center of the screen asking if they want to Open or Save the PDF. If you select Open, the document may open in either Adobe Acrobat or the browser.
Note: Firefox users will see a grey screen due to a bug in Firefox. Please see the "Troubleshooting Tips" section below for how to save the file as a PDF. |

Q: I work at the Medical Center/SOM and am unable to download the PDFs while using IE 11.
A: This is due to a HS Group Policy restriction that disables IE11 from downloading files. For EDL to work, the HS IT Team has implemented a virtualized instance of IE8 (via VMWare Thinapp) to support EDL. Please partner with your local HS IT for assistance.
