While this information is easily updated during operational use of {{IMSMANG}}, it is helpful to establish a baseline of information prior to proceeding with Data Entry Form template design and data entry. Many {{IMSMANG}} users already have a baseline set of information created for each of the Auxiliary data types, either through the standard, predefined data available within {{IMSMANG}} or by migrating auxiliary data from a previous IMSMA version. Auxiliary data can also be augmented by creating [[Custom Defined Fields|'''CDFs''' ]] to track additional information.
===Ordnance Classification===__NOEDITSECTION__
{{note|
*Before beginning data entry, standardise the ordnance available for use to ensure data consistency of reports.
*When adding an ordnance to the database, determine if the ordnance already exists in {{IMSMANG}} and the correct classification.

{{New_6.0 | IED, Less-lethal weapons, Light weapons, MANPADS, Small Arm Ammunitions and Small Arms have been added as Category. The new field ''Statistic Group'' has been added in order to facilitate flexible reporting }}

{{IMSMANG}} provides the ability to track information about Organisations participating in Mine Action. Organisations can be categorised by type and assigned “work areas” based on the country structure. To display Organisations on the map, they must have geospatial data (minimum one set of coordinates).
Additionally, {{IMSMANG}} supports the creation of parent-child relationships with organisations so that information managers can create hierarchies of organisations. For example, a mine clearance organisation may be responsible for several clearance teams within a country. As shown in the figure below, this relationship can be mapped by creating one organisation for the mine clearance organisation (NGO1) and one organisation for each team (TeamA, TeamB and TeamC), then specifying the parent organisation of each team as NGO1.
