<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

[[Image:Database.gif|Database Icon]]&nbsp;&nbsp;<font size="+1">'''Student Accommodation Manager Version 1 (SAM V1)'''</font><br />
<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Application_software|What is an application?]]<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Database|What is a database?]]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_table.html What is a QuickBase table and record?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_field.html What is a QuickBase field?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html What is a QuickBase report?]<br />
<br />
==Tables==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 organizes data into different [[SAM V1:Tables |tables]] that allow you to instantly access, sort, and find information for an individual student or related data sets.<br />
<br />
At the core is the [[SAM V1:Students|Student]] table, however, SAM V1 allows users to manage data for and report on:<br />
<br />
{| width="100%"<br />
|-<br />
|<br />
* [[SAM V1:Disabilities|Disabilities]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Accommodations|Accommodations]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Consent Types|Consent Types]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Referrals|Referrals]]<br />

<br />
==Access==<br />
<br />
Access to SAM V1 requires a login and password. Each user is provided with their own login and password. A user’s login is their email address. Passwords are case sensitive.<br />
<br />
[https://www.quickbase.com/db/main?a=signin Login to SAM V1]<br />
<br />
==Security==<br />
<br />
Users of SAM V1 benefit from the following [http://quickbase.intuit.com/overview/security/ security] measures provided for all [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] applications:<br />
<br />
* An industry-standard, 128-bit Secure Socket Layers (SSL) protocol is employed to ensure information is neither intercepted nor corrupted during transmission over the Internet.<br />
* Encryption technology is used to help protect data stored on disk.<br />
* A state-of-the-art data center provides intrusion detection software and hardware, advanced firewall software, daily back-ups to prevent data loss, video surveillance, and uninterruptible power supplies.<br />
<br />
==Permissions==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 users can access the same data simultaneously. However, using [[SAM_V1:Permissions|roles and permissions]], you can determine what data users can see and what actions users can perform.<br />
<br />
==Reporting==<br />
<br />
With SAM V1, you can quickly and easily find and view your data the way you want. Reporting is simple, with:<br />
<br />
* A host of pre-defined reports to help you get started quickly.<br />
* An easy to use [https://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html report writer] that allows you to create tabular reports, summary reports, and even graphs and charts.<br />
* A powerful '''Find''' feature that allows you to filter data by multiple fields.<br />
<br />
==Implementation==<br />
<br />
The SAM V1 customer application is created by copying the master SAM QuickBase application. SAM con [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will also be an [[Disability_Professional_Member_Guide|AMAC Member]] and have students in [[NEON]]. SAM sin [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will not have related students in [[NEON]].<br />
<br />
Prior to creating the SAM V1 application for the customer, the customer should complete the [[Media:SamImplementationPlan.docx|SAMV1 Implementation Guide with instructions]]. This Microsoft Word document helps the customer identify:<br />
<br />
* How many users will have access<br />
* The name and email address of all users (this information will be used to create the QuickBase logins for users)<br />
* If any new roles and permissions are required in addition to the service provider and administrator roles<br />
* What role to assign to each user<br />
* The multiple-choice field values<br />
* The list of available accommodations<br />
<br />
Completed documents and questions can be emailed to Joe Tedesco [mailto:joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu]. <br />
<br />
When the SAM V1 customer application is created, [http://www.amacusg.org/ AMAC] will use the information provided in the implementation guide to provision users, create any new roles and permissions, and customize the values for multiple-choice fields.<br />

<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

<div style="height: 5px;">&nbsp;</div><br />
<br />
==Features==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 was developed using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and utilizes standard QuickBase features and [http://quickbase.intuit.com/overview/security/ security], including:<br />
<br />
* Totally web-based<br />
* 24-hour, 365-day availability<br />
* No special software or installations required<br />
* Accessible / [[SAMVPAT|VPAT]] Voluntary Product Accessibility Template<br />

* Searchable on-line help<br />
* Advanced access control via logins, users and roles<br />
* Data encryption<br />
* Daily backups<br />
* Redundant data storage<br />
<br />
==Terminology==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 is a relational database application. An understanding of the following terms and concepts is essential to understanding the SAM V1 design:<br />
<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Application_software|What is an application?]]<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Database|What is a database?]]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_table.html What is a QuickBase table and record?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_field.html What is a QuickBase field?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html What is a QuickBase report?]<br />
<br />
==Tables==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 organizes data into different [[SAM V1:Tables |tables]] that allow you to instantly access, sort, and find information for an individual student or related data sets.<br />
<br />
At the core is the [[SAM V1:Students|Student]] table, however, SAM V1 allows users to manage data for and report on:<br />
<br />
{| width="100%"<br />
|-<br />
|<br />
* [[SAM V1:Disabilities|Disabilities]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Accommodations|Accommodations]]<br />

* [[SAM V1:Class Schedules|Class Schedules]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Documentation|Documentation]]<br />
|}<br />
<br />
==Access==<br />
<br />
Access to SAM V1 requires a login and password. Each user is provided with their own login and password. A user’s login is their email address. Passwords are case sensitive.<br />
<br />
[https://www.quickbase.com/db/main?a=signin Login to SAM V1]<br />
<br />
==Security==<br />
<br />
Users of SAM V1 benefit from the following [http://quickbase.intuit.com/overview/security/ security] measures provided for all [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] applications:<br />
<br />
* An industry-standard, 128-bit Secure Socket Layers (SSL) protocol is employed to ensure information is neither intercepted nor corrupted during transmission over the Internet.<br />
* Encryption technology is used to help protect data stored on disk.<br />
* A state-of-the-art data center provides intrusion detection software and hardware, advanced firewall software, daily back-ups to prevent data loss, video surveillance, and uninterruptible power supplies.<br />
<br />
==Permissions==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 users can access the same data simultaneously. However, using [[SAM_V1:Permissions|roles and permissions]], you can determine what data users can see and what actions users can perform.<br />
<br />
==Reporting==<br />
<br />
With SAM V1, you can quickly and easily find and view your data the way you want. Reporting is simple, with:<br />
<br />
* A host of pre-defined reports to help you get started quickly.<br />
* An easy to use [https://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html report writer] that allows you to create tabular reports, summary reports, and even graphs and charts.<br />
* A powerful '''Find''' feature that allows you to filter data by multiple fields.<br />
<br />
==Implementation==<br />
<br />
The SAM V1 customer application is created by copying the master SAM QuickBase application. SAM con [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will also be an [[Disability_Professional_Member_Guide|AMAC Member]] and have students in [[NEON]]. SAM sin [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will not have related students in [[NEON]].<br />
<br />
Prior to creating the SAM V1 application for the customer, the customer should complete the [[Media:SamImplementationPlan.docx|SAMV1 Implementation Guide with instructions]]. This Microsoft Word document helps the customer identify:<br />
<br />
* How many users will have access<br />
* The name and email address of all users (this information will be used to create the QuickBase logins for users)<br />
* If any new roles and permissions are required in addition to the service provider and administrator roles<br />
* What role to assign to each user<br />
* The multiple-choice field values<br />
* The list of available accommodations<br />
<br />
Completed documents and questions can be emailed to Joe Tedesco [mailto:joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu]. <br />
<br />
When the SAM V1 customer application is created, [http://www.amacusg.org/ AMAC] will use the information provided in the implementation guide to provision users, create any new roles and permissions, and customize the values for multiple-choice fields.<br />

[[Image:Database.gif|Database Icon]]&nbsp;&nbsp;<font size="+1">'''Student Accommodation Manager Version 1 (SAM V1)'''</font><br />
<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

[[Image:Database.gif|Database Icon]]&nbsp;&nbsp;<font size="+1">'''Student Accommodation Manager Version 1 (SAM V1)'''</font><br />
<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

<br />
==Features==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 was developed using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and utilizes standard QuickBase features and [http://quickbase.intuit.com/overview/security/ security], including:<br />
<br />
* Totally web-based<br />

<br />
==Terminology==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 is a relational database application. An understanding of the following terms and concepts is essential to understanding the SAM V1 design:<br />
<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Application_software|What is an application?]]<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Database|What is a database?]]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_table.html What is a QuickBase table and record?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_field.html What is a QuickBase field?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html What is a QuickBase report?]<br />
<br />
==Tables==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 organizes data into different [[SAM V1:Tables |tables]] that allow you to instantly access, sort, and find information for an individual student or related data sets.<br />
<br />
At the core is the [[SAM V1:Students|Student]] table, however, SAM V1 allows users to manage data for and report on:<br />
<br />
{| width="100%"<br />
|-<br />
|<br />
* [[SAM V1:Disabilities|Disabilities]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Accommodations|Accommodations]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Consent Types|Consent Types]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Referrals|Referrals]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Case Notes|Case Notes]]<br />

* [[SAM V1:Orders|Alternate Media Orders]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Class Schedules|Class Schedules]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Documentation|Documentation]]<br />
|}<br />
<br />
==Access==<br />
<br />
Access to SAM V1 requires a login and password. Each user is provided with their own login and password. A user’s login is their email address. Passwords are case sensitive.<br />
<br />
[https://www.quickbase.com/db/main?a=signin Login to SAM V1]<br />
<br />
==Security==<br />
<br />
Users of SAM V1 benefit from the following [http://quickbase.intuit.com/overview/security/ security] measures provided for all [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] applications:<br />
<br />
* An industry-standard, 128-bit Secure Socket Layers (SSL) protocol is employed to ensure information is neither intercepted nor corrupted during transmission over the Internet.<br />
* Encryption technology is used to help protect data stored on disk.<br />
* A state-of-the-art data center provides intrusion detection software and hardware, advanced firewall software, daily back-ups to prevent data loss, video surveillance, and uninterruptible power supplies.<br />
<br />
==Permissions==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 users can access the same data simultaneously. However, using [[SAM_V1:Permissions|roles and permissions]], you can determine what data users can see and what actions users can perform.<br />
<br />
==Reporting==<br />
<br />
With SAM V1, you can quickly and easily find and view your data the way you want. Reporting is simple, with:<br />
<br />
* A host of pre-defined reports to help you get started quickly.<br />
* An easy to use [https://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html report writer] that allows you to create tabular reports, summary reports, and even graphs and charts.<br />
* A powerful '''Find''' feature that allows you to filter data by multiple fields.<br />
<br />
==Implementation==<br />
<br />
The SAM V1 customer application is created by copying the master SAM QuickBase application. SAM con [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will also be an [[Disability_Professional_Member_Guide|AMAC Member]] and have students in [[NEON]]. SAM sin [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will not have related students in [[NEON]].<br />
<br />
Prior to creating the SAM V1 application for the customer, the customer should complete the [[Media:SamImplementationPlan.docx|SAMV1 Implementation Guide with instructions]]. This Microsoft Word document helps the customer identify:<br />
<br />
* How many users will have access<br />
* The name and email address of all users (this information will be used to create the QuickBase logins for users)<br />
* If any new roles and permissions are required in addition to the service provider and administrator roles<br />
* What role to assign to each user<br />
* The multiple-choice field values<br />
* The list of available accommodations<br />
<br />
Completed documents and questions can be emailed to Joe Tedesco [mailto:joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu]. <br />
<br />
When the SAM V1 customer application is created, [http://www.amacusg.org/ AMAC] will use the information provided in the implementation guide to provision users, create any new roles and permissions, and customize the values for multiple-choice fields.<br />

<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

[[Image:Database.gif|Database Icon]]&nbsp;&nbsp;<font size="+1">'''Student Accommodation Manager Version 1 (SAM V1)'''</font><br />
<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

==Terminology==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 is a relational database application. An understanding of the following terms and concepts is essential to understanding the SAM V1 design:<br />
<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Application_software|What is an application?]]<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Database|What is a database?]]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_table.html What is a QuickBase table and record?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_field.html What is a QuickBase field?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html What is a QuickBase report?]<br />
<br />
==Tables==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 organizes data into different [[SAM V1:Tables |tables]] that allow you to instantly access, sort, and find information for an individual student or related data sets.<br />
<br />
At the core is the [[SAM V1:Students|Student]] table, however, SAM V1 allows users to manage data for and report on:<br />
<br />
{| width="100%"<br />
|-<br />
|<br />
* [[SAM V1:Disabilities|Disabilities]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Accommodations|Accommodations]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Consent Types|Consent Types]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Referrals|Referrals]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Case Notes|Case Notes]]<br />

* [[SAM V1:Orders|Alternate Media Orders]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Class Schedules|Class Schedules]]<br />
* [[SAM V1:Documentation|Documentation]]<br />
|}<br />
<br />
==Access==<br />
<br />
Access to SAM V1 requires a login and password. Each user is provided with their own login and password. A user’s login is their email address. Passwords are case sensitive.<br />
<br />
[https://www.quickbase.com/db/main?a=signin Login to SAM V1]<br />
<br />
==Security==<br />
<br />
Users of SAM V1 benefit from the following [http://quickbase.intuit.com/overview/security/ security] measures provided for all [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] applications:<br />
<br />
* An industry-standard, 128-bit Secure Socket Layers (SSL) protocol is employed to ensure information is neither intercepted nor corrupted during transmission over the Internet.<br />
* Encryption technology is used to help protect data stored on disk.<br />
* A state-of-the-art data center provides intrusion detection software and hardware, advanced firewall software, daily back-ups to prevent data loss, video surveillance, and uninterruptible power supplies.<br />
<br />
==Permissions==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 users can access the same data simultaneously. However, using [[SAM_V1:Permissions|roles and permissions]], you can determine what data users can see and what actions users can perform.<br />
<br />
==Reporting==<br />
<br />
With SAM V1, you can quickly and easily find and view your data the way you want. Reporting is simple, with:<br />
<br />
* A host of pre-defined reports to help you get started quickly.<br />
* An easy to use [https://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html report writer] that allows you to create tabular reports, summary reports, and even graphs and charts.<br />
* A powerful '''Find''' feature that allows you to filter data by multiple fields.<br />
<br />
==Implementation==<br />
<br />
The SAM V1 customer application is created by copying the master SAM QuickBase application. SAM con [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will also be an [[Disability_Professional_Member_Guide|AMAC Member]] and have students in [[NEON]]. SAM sin [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will not have related students in [[NEON]].<br />
<br />
Prior to creating the SAM V1 application for the customer, the customer should complete the [[Media:SamImplementationPlan.docx|SAMV1 Implementation Guide with instructions]]. This Microsoft Word document helps the customer identify:<br />
<br />
* How many users will have access<br />
* The name and email address of all users (this information will be used to create the QuickBase logins for users)<br />
* If any new roles and permissions are required in addition to the service provider and administrator roles<br />
* What role to assign to each user<br />
* The multiple-choice field values<br />
* The list of available accommodations<br />
<br />
Completed documents and questions can be emailed to Joe Tedesco [mailto:joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu]. <br />
<br />
When the SAM V1 customer application is created, [http://www.amacusg.org/ AMAC] will use the information provided in the implementation guide to provision users, create any new roles and permissions, and customize the values for multiple-choice fields.<br />

<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

==Terminology==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 is a relational database application. An understanding of the following terms and concepts is essential to understanding the SAM V1 design:<br />
<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Application_software|What is an application?]]<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Database|What is a database?]]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_table.html What is a QuickBase table and record?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_field.html What is a QuickBase field?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html What is a QuickBase report?]<br />
<br />
==Tables==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 organizes data into different [[SAM V1:Tables |tables]] that allow you to instantly access, sort, and find information for an individual student or related data sets.<br />
<br />
At the core is the [[SAM V1:Students|Student]] table, however, SAM V1 allows users to manage data for and report on:<br />
<br />
{| width="100%"<br />
|-<br />

* [[SAM V1:Documentation|Documentation]]<br />
|}<br />
<br />
==Access==<br />
<br />
Access to SAM V1 requires a login and password. Each user is provided with their own login and password. A user’s login is their email address. Passwords are case sensitive.<br />
<br />
[https://www.quickbase.com/db/main?a=signin Login to SAM V1]<br />
<br />
==Security==<br />
<br />
Users of SAM V1 benefit from the following [http://quickbase.intuit.com/overview/security/ security] measures provided for all [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] applications:<br />
<br />
* An industry-standard, 128-bit Secure Socket Layers (SSL) protocol is employed to ensure information is neither intercepted nor corrupted during transmission over the Internet.<br />
* Encryption technology is used to help protect data stored on disk.<br />
* A state-of-the-art data center provides intrusion detection software and hardware, advanced firewall software, daily back-ups to prevent data loss, video surveillance, and uninterruptible power supplies.<br />
<br />
==Permissions==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 users can access the same data simultaneously. However, using [[SAM_V1:Permissions|roles and permissions]], you can determine what data users can see and what actions users can perform.<br />
<br />
==Reporting==<br />
<br />
With SAM V1, you can quickly and easily find and view your data the way you want. Reporting is simple, with:<br />
<br />
* A host of pre-defined reports to help you get started quickly.<br />
* An easy to use [https://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html report writer] that allows you to create tabular reports, summary reports, and even graphs and charts.<br />
* A powerful '''Find''' feature that allows you to filter data by multiple fields.<br />
<br />
==Implementation==<br />
<br />
The SAM V1 customer application is created by copying the master SAM QuickBase application. SAM con [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will also be an [[Disability_Professional_Member_Guide|AMAC Member]] and have students in [[NEON]]. SAM sin [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will not have related students in [[NEON]].<br />
<br />
Prior to creating the SAM V1 application for the customer, the customer should complete the [[Media:SamImplementationPlan.docx|SAMV1 Implementation Guide with instructions]]. This Microsoft Word document helps the customer identify:<br />
<br />
* How many users will have access<br />
* The name and email address of all users (this information will be used to create the QuickBase logins for users)<br />
* If any new roles and permissions are required in addition to the service provider and administrator roles<br />
* What role to assign to each user<br />
* The multiple-choice field values<br />
* The list of available accommodations<br />
<br />
Completed documents and questions can be emailed to Joe Tedesco [mailto:joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu]. <br />
<br />
When the SAM V1 customer application is created, [http://www.amacusg.org/ AMAC] will use the information provided in the implementation guide to provision users, create any new roles and permissions, and customize the values for multiple-choice fields.<br />

<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

[[Image:Database.gif|Database Icon]]&nbsp;&nbsp;<font size="+1">'''Student Accommodation Manager Version 1 (SAM V1)'''</font><br />
<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

<br />
==Features==<br />

==Terminology==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 is a relational database application. An understanding of the following terms and concepts is essential to understanding the SAM V1 design:<br />
<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Application_software|What is an application?]]<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Database|What is a database?]]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_table.html What is a QuickBase table and record?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_field.html What is a QuickBase field?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html What is a QuickBase report?]<br />
<br />
==Tables==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 organizes data into different [[SAM V1:Tables |tables]] that allow you to instantly access, sort, and find information for an individual student or related data sets.<br />
<br />
At the core is the [[SAM V1:Students|Student]] table, however, SAM V1 allows users to manage data for and report on:<br />
<br />
{| width="100%"<br />

|}<br />
<br />
==Access==<br />
<br />

<br />
[https://www.quickbase.com/db/main?a=signin Login to SAM V1]<br />
<br />
==Security==<br />
<br />
Users of SAM V1 benefit from the following [http://quickbase.intuit.com/overview/security/ security] measures provided for all [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] applications:<br />
<br />
* An industry-standard, 128-bit Secure Socket Layers (SSL) protocol is employed to ensure information is neither intercepted nor corrupted during transmission over the Internet.<br />
* Encryption technology is used to help protect data stored on disk.<br />
* A state-of-the-art data center provides intrusion detection software and hardware, advanced firewall software, daily back-ups to prevent data loss, video surveillance, and uninterruptible power supplies.<br />
<br />
==Permissions==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 users can access the same data simultaneously. However, using [[SAM_V1:Permissions|roles and permissions]], you can determine what data users can see and what actions users can perform.<br />
<br />
==Reporting==<br />
<br />
With SAM V1, you can quickly and easily find and view your data the way you want. Reporting is simple, with:<br />
<br />
* A host of pre-defined reports to help you get started quickly.<br />
* An easy to use [https://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html report writer] that allows you to create tabular reports, summary reports, and even graphs and charts.<br />
* A powerful '''Find''' feature that allows you to filter data by multiple fields.<br />
<br />
==Implementation==<br />
<br />
The SAM V1 customer application is created by copying the master SAM QuickBase application. SAM con [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will also be an [[Disability_Professional_Member_Guide|AMAC Member]] and have students in [[NEON]]. SAM sin [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will not have related students in [[NEON]].<br />
<br />
Prior to creating the SAM V1 application for the customer, the customer should complete the [[Media:SamImplementationPlan.docx|SAMV1 Implementation Guide with instructions]]. This Microsoft Word document helps the customer identify:<br />
<br />
* How many users will have access<br />
* The name and email address of all users (this information will be used to create the QuickBase logins for users)<br />
* If any new roles and permissions are required in addition to the service provider and administrator roles<br />
* What role to assign to each user<br />
* The multiple-choice field values<br />
* The list of available accommodations<br />
<br />
Completed documents and questions can be emailed to Joe Tedesco [mailto:joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu]. <br />
<br />
When the SAM V1 customer application is created, [http://www.amacusg.org/ AMAC] will use the information provided in the implementation guide to provision users, create any new roles and permissions, and customize the values for multiple-choice fields.<br />

[[Image:Database.gif|Database Icon]]&nbsp;&nbsp;<font size="+1">'''Student Accommodation Manager Version 1 (SAM V1)'''</font><br />
<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Application_software|What is an application?]]<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Database|What is a database?]]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_table.html What is a QuickBase table and record?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_field.html What is a QuickBase field?]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html What is a QuickBase report?]<br />
<br />
==Tables==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 organizes data into different [[SAM V1:Tables |tables]] that allow you to instantly access, sort, and find information for an individual student or related data sets.<br />
<br />
At the core is the [[SAM V1:Students|Student]] table, however, SAM V1 allows users to manage data for and report on:<br />
<br />

<br />
[https://www.quickbase.com/db/main?a=signin Login to SAM V1]<br />
<br />
==Security==<br />
<br />
Users of SAM V1 benefit from the following [http://quickbase.intuit.com/overview/security/ security] measures provided for all [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] applications:<br />
<br />
* An industry-standard, 128-bit Secure Socket Layers (SSL) protocol is employed to ensure information is neither intercepted nor corrupted during transmission over the Internet.<br />
* Encryption technology is used to help protect data stored on disk.<br />
* A state-of-the-art data center provides intrusion detection software and hardware, advanced firewall software, daily back-ups to prevent data loss, video surveillance, and uninterruptible power supplies.<br />
<br />
==Permissions==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 users can access the same data simultaneously. However, using [[SAM_V1:Permissions|roles and permissions]], you can determine what data users can see and what actions users can perform.<br />
<br />
==Reporting==<br />
<br />
With SAM V1, you can quickly and easily find and view your data the way you want. Reporting is simple, with:<br />
<br />
* A host of pre-defined reports to help you get started quickly.<br />
* An easy to use [https://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html report writer] that allows you to create tabular reports, summary reports, and even graphs and charts.<br />
* A powerful '''Find''' feature that allows you to filter data by multiple fields.<br />
<br />
==Implementation==<br />
<br />
The SAM V1 customer application is created by copying the master SAM QuickBase application. SAM con [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will also be an [[Disability_Professional_Member_Guide|AMAC Member]] and have students in [[NEON]]. SAM sin [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will not have related students in [[NEON]].<br />
<br />
Prior to creating the SAM V1 application for the customer, the customer should complete the [[Media:SamImplementationPlan.docx|SAMV1 Implementation Guide with instructions]]. This Microsoft Word document helps the customer identify:<br />
<br />
* How many users will have access<br />
* The name and email address of all users (this information will be used to create the QuickBase logins for users)<br />
* If any new roles and permissions are required in addition to the service provider and administrator roles<br />
* What role to assign to each user<br />
* The multiple-choice field values<br />
* The list of available accommodations<br />
<br />
Completed documents and questions can be emailed to Joe Tedesco [mailto:joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu]. <br />
<br />
When the SAM V1 customer application is created, [http://www.amacusg.org/ AMAC] will use the information provided in the implementation guide to provision users, create any new roles and permissions, and customize the values for multiple-choice fields.<br />

<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

<br />
[https://www.quickbase.com/db/main?a=signin Login to SAM V1]<br />
<br />
==Security==<br />
<br />
Users of SAM V1 benefit from the following [http://quickbase.intuit.com/overview/security/ security] measures provided for all [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] applications:<br />
<br />
* An industry-standard, 128-bit Secure Socket Layers (SSL) protocol is employed to ensure information is neither intercepted nor corrupted during transmission over the Internet.<br />
* Encryption technology is used to help protect data stored on disk.<br />
* A state-of-the-art data center provides intrusion detection software and hardware, advanced firewall software, daily back-ups to prevent data loss, video surveillance, and uninterruptible power supplies.<br />
<br />
==Permissions==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 users can access the same data simultaneously. However, using [[SAM_V1:Permissions|roles and permissions]], you can determine what data users can see and what actions users can perform.<br />
<br />
==Reporting==<br />
<br />
With SAM V1, you can quickly and easily find and view your data the way you want. Reporting is simple, with:<br />
<br />
* A host of pre-defined reports to help you get started quickly.<br />
* An easy to use [https://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html report writer] that allows you to create tabular reports, summary reports, and even graphs and charts.<br />
* A powerful '''Find''' feature that allows you to filter data by multiple fields.<br />
<br />
==Implementation==<br />
<br />
The SAM V1 customer application is created by copying the master SAM QuickBase application. SAM con [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will also be an [[Disability_Professional_Member_Guide|AMAC Member]] and have students in [[NEON]]. SAM sin [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will not have related students in [[NEON]].<br />
<br />
Prior to creating the SAM V1 application for the customer, the customer should complete the [[Media:SamImplementationPlan.docx|SAMV1 Implementation Guide with instructions]]. This Microsoft Word document helps the customer identify:<br />
<br />
* How many users will have access<br />
* The name and email address of all users (this information will be used to create the QuickBase logins for users)<br />
* If any new roles and permissions are required in addition to the service provider and administrator roles<br />
* What role to assign to each user<br />
* The multiple-choice field values<br />
* The list of available accommodations<br />
<br />
Completed documents and questions can be emailed to Joe Tedesco [mailto:joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu]. <br />
<br />
When the SAM V1 customer application is created, [http://www.amacusg.org/ AMAC] will use the information provided in the implementation guide to provision users, create any new roles and permissions, and customize the values for multiple-choice fields.<br />

<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

[[Image:Database.gif|Database Icon]]&nbsp;&nbsp;<font size="+1">'''Student Accommodation Manager Version 1 (SAM V1)'''</font><br />
<br />
The Student Accommodations Manager Version 1 (SAM V1) is a secure, web-based database application designed to help postsecondary Disability Service Providers manage student data, disabilities, accommodations, case notes, and much more. SAM V1 is developed and hosted using Intuit's [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] and follows a [[Wikipedia:Software_as_a_service|software-as-a-service]] model where there is no software to install or server to manage or own. Essential functions such as system availability and backups are provided for you. Predefined reports as well as a powerful report writer allow you to quickly and easily find, filter, and transform data. SAM V1 can also serve as a forms repository and auto-generate accommodation notification letters. For institutions lacking strong IT support, SAM V1 offers a viable multi-user, web-based solution.<br />

<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Application_software|What is an application?]]<br />
* [[Wikipedia:Database|What is a database?]]<br />
* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_table.html What is a QuickBase table and record?]<br />

* [http://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html What is a QuickBase report?]<br />
<br />
==Tables==<br />
<br />

<br />
[https://www.quickbase.com/db/main?a=signin Login to SAM V1]<br />
<br />
==Security==<br />
<br />
Users of SAM V1 benefit from the following [http://quickbase.intuit.com/overview/security/ security] measures provided for all [http://www.quickbase.com QuickBase] applications:<br />
<br />
* An industry-standard, 128-bit Secure Socket Layers (SSL) protocol is employed to ensure information is neither intercepted nor corrupted during transmission over the Internet.<br />
* Encryption technology is used to help protect data stored on disk.<br />
* A state-of-the-art data center provides intrusion detection software and hardware, advanced firewall software, daily back-ups to prevent data loss, video surveillance, and uninterruptible power supplies.<br />
<br />
==Permissions==<br />
<br />
SAM V1 users can access the same data simultaneously. However, using [[SAM_V1:Permissions|roles and permissions]], you can determine what data users can see and what actions users can perform.<br />
<br />
==Reporting==<br />
<br />
With SAM V1, you can quickly and easily find and view your data the way you want. Reporting is simple, with:<br />
<br />
* A host of pre-defined reports to help you get started quickly.<br />
* An easy to use [https://www.quickbase.com/help/default.html#what_is_a_view.html report writer] that allows you to create tabular reports, summary reports, and even graphs and charts.<br />
* A powerful '''Find''' feature that allows you to filter data by multiple fields.<br />
<br />
==Implementation==<br />
<br />
The SAM V1 customer application is created by copying the master SAM QuickBase application. SAM con [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will also be an [[Disability_Professional_Member_Guide|AMAC Member]] and have students in [[NEON]]. SAM sin [[NEON]] is used as the source master when the customer will not have related students in [[NEON]].<br />
<br />
Prior to creating the SAM V1 application for the customer, the customer should complete the [[Media:SamImplementationPlan.docx|SAMV1 Implementation Guide with instructions]]. This Microsoft Word document helps the customer identify:<br />
<br />
* How many users will have access<br />
* The name and email address of all users (this information will be used to create the QuickBase logins for users)<br />
* If any new roles and permissions are required in addition to the service provider and administrator roles<br />
* What role to assign to each user<br />
* The multiple-choice field values<br />
* The list of available accommodations<br />
<br />
Completed documents and questions can be emailed to Joe Tedesco [mailto:joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu joe.tedesco@amac.gatech.edu]. <br />
<br />
When the SAM V1 customer application is created, [http://www.amacusg.org/ AMAC] will use the information provided in the implementation guide to provision users, create any new roles and permissions, and customize the values for multiple-choice fields.<br />
