CYMS Reports Maintaining internal controls and ensuring the security and

validity of the information in the CYMS database is a critical management oversight responsibility.

Tracking and auditing information is made easier by using the tools available in CYMS. A wide variety of reports, inquiries, and spot-checks are available to

assist with self-audits. Different types of reports are available: “In-time” and “Historical”.

“In-Time” - only good for the moment/current data only.

“Historical” – data within a specific date range.

Accurate Data Input

Accurate Data Input is Critical(“Garbage” In – “Garbage” Out)

CYMS is used for Data Input! Data is used for Daily Processing and Updating! Data is used for Reports, and Inquiries!

Information is true and accurate. Eliminate Inspection write-ups.
