===Remove Unnecessary Elements from Data Entry Form Templates===__NOEDITSECTION__
By removing unnecessary or invalid choices from forms, information managers can improve the quality of data collected and entered into IMSMA<sup>NG</sup>. For example, if a form is designed to be a Minefield form, then there is no need to keep other possible values for the “Mine Action Area Type” that are not “Minefield.” In this case, values such as “SHA,” “Dangerous Area” “SHA” and “Other” can be removed from the form, leaving “Minefield” as the only possible choice. This helps improve data quality while reducing the size and complexity of data entry forms.
