  • Each module you open, list you create, or statistical report you generate uses a user license.

  • You may log in multiple times with the same username. Each login uses a user license.
  • To access from off-campus, telnet to ohsu.edu and log in with your Sellwood username and password. At the sellwood prompt, type telnet ohsucr11, then log in with your Innovative username and password.
