To reconcile Data Entry Forms, your IMSMANG user account must belong to a User Role that has permissions to do so. There are several different permissions e.g. Data Entry Form and Link. Contact your IMSMANG Administrator if you have questions on permissions. |
Data Entry
When data entry is started from either the Data Entry menu or from the Add Data Entry Forms button in the toolbar the possible Actions on the Reconciliation tab are different than when data entry is started from the Summary window.
Reconciliation Tab
When you click the 
button, you will be given three different options.
Reconciliation Options
- Reconcile as New – allows you to assign the item record to a Location.
- Reconcile as Existing Item – allows you to update an existing item with the information in this Data Entry Form.
- There are two different methods:
- Replace
- Combine.
- Link to Existing Item - allows you to link the item to an existing object of any type.

| Area size | Activty, Land |
| Hours spent | Activity |
| Cause / Event | Victim |
| Needs | Victim |
| Given Assistance | Assistance |
