DTC codes through Instrument Panel?

I see that the instrument panel when you go into diagnostic mode can list DTC's. Im curious if this will give complete DTC's or do the ones that you purchase give more accurate/more complete DTC's? Also with the diagnostic mmode shows my battery at 11.9 amps. Are these accurate for the battery amperage?

The use of a scan tool is best...
OBDII code readers are good....
The dash tool doesn't give you all the info you need to property diagnose issues...
