Help Desk Assistance for PAT

The Pre-Posting Allocation Tool (PAT) is being supported by DoIT's Help Desk. In addition to the user guides (including a calendar of posting dates and WISDM information) and frequently asked questions that are available for assistance, MDS and DoIt have worked to develop a comprehensive listing of help documentation in DoIT's KnowledgeBase. Many of these documents are linked below and are used to address possible errors or problems users may encounter. If you still need assistance with PAT after browsing these documents, contact the DoIT Help Desk at (608) 264-4357 or help@doit.wisc.edu.
