When a field report is completed, it is either reconciled to an existing item (that is, it is determined to be information about an item that already exists | [[Using the Tasking Tool in IMSMA<sup>NG</sup>) or it is reconciled as new (that is, it is determined to be information about IMSMANG#On an item that does not already exist in IMSMA<sup>NG</sup>).Item's Summary |View Associated Tasks]]| [[Print an Item from the Summary Window]]With this approach, users can collect and store multiple field reports about the same item over time so that the entire history of the item is preserved in the system. The approach also provides | [[Export a complete audit trail of all changes made to any mine action information so that information managers can answer Data Entry Form from the question, "What did we know and when did we know it?"Summary Window]]}}IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> also provides a constantly updated current view of the item which represents the sum of information about the item at any given time. As subsequent information is collected about a specific attribute of an item, IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> updates the item’s current view on an attribute-by-attribute basis. For example{{Note | All users have [[Defining Roles, Field Report #1 collects some initial information about a hazard. It sets the priority to "Medium" Permissions and specifies that the hazard contains AP mines and is 25,000 sqm. Field Report #2 updates information about the hazard after a subsequent assessment. The report sets the priority Users | permission]] to "High" and specifies the presence of AP and AT mines, but it does not change the size or the status of the hazard. Field Report #3 updates the hazard’s size and status after clearance operations are complete. The figure below shows how the hazard’s current view is updated after all three reports are entered into the systemSummary windows.}}
[[Image:Understanding_IMSMA_Information_Model_-_Updating_CVs.png|center|500px|The ''Example of Updating Current Views'Summary window']]<div align="center">''Example of Updating Current Views''</div>displays the updated combined data for an item. This includes Data Entry Forms, geospatial data, associated attachments, and related item records.
There are several different ways to open the Summary windows:
* Double-click the item row from the IMSMA Navigation window’s items pane.
* Select the symbol in the [[Map Pane]] so that a blue circle displays on the symbol. Once the blue circle is displayed on the symbol, double-click the symbol in the Map Pane.
* Select the symbol in the Map Pane or the item row in the items pane and click the [[Image:InfoPageIcon.png | Identify Selection]] button. From the Identify Selection window, select the item record and click the [[Image:ViewIcon.png | Summary]] button.
Current view calculations The attributes displayed in the Summary window for each item are based on the date of the field report, so it is possible to enter data into the system out be [[Summary Templates | customised]]. The Summary windows consists of chronological order (that is, to collect past information about an item) without disrupting the current view. For example, if a fourth field report were collected and dated between Field Report #1 and Field Report #2, it would have no effect on the current view as all information in the example was updated with Field Report #2 or later.different areas:* Summary window toolbar* Information area* Data area
==Current View Windows==The current view windows display the most recent set of attribute data for an item. This includes field reports, geospatial data, associated attachments, and related item records. [[:Image:fig28.png|Figure 28]] illustrates an example of what a current view will display for an item.
