===The Workbench===__NOEDITSECTION__
Items, Data Entry Forms, Summaries, assigning and linking come together at the Workbench. The Workbench is a holding area / import inbox where users enter data into Data Entry Forms and reconcile each item are found until they are approved. There are three possible steps in the Data Entry Form either as a new item or as an update to an existing itemreconciliation process:# Save# Submit# Approve For data quality purposes, it is important that the data is adequately checked. Users have With multiple permission levels for the ability to assign Data Entry Form items to Locations and to link items Reconciliation, different users can be assigned different permissions, allowing Mine Action Programmes to other items (like linking implement a Technical Survey to an existing CHA). They then save the reports in the Workbench pending the appropriate quality checks data-entry workflow that distinguishes between data entry and approvalsdata verification roles.
Until a Data Entry Form is approved, it exists only in the Workbench and does not update any Summaries. The report can still be modified or deleted. When a Data Entry Form is approved, it becomes part of the Summaries and will be visible on the map.
For data quality purposes, it is important that the data is adequately checked at this stage. {{IMSMANG}} allows information managers to control permissions for the Workbench and other areas of {{IMSMANG}} through the management of users and roles. With multiple permission levels for the Workbench, different users can be assigned different permissions, allowing programmes to implement a data-entry workflow that distinguishes between data entry and data verification roles. It is recommended to set up a permission structure that reserves approval authority for Data Entry Forms for the most trusted users.
