The Data Entry process is a series of steps to ensure the approval of high-level quality data inside IMSMANG. To help achieve this aim, is important to have locally defined standard operating procedures (SOPs) for Data Entry which defines who-does-what and who is responsible for Data 'Verification.

The Data Entry process consists of three major steps:

1. Reconile

2. Data Entry

3. Approve.

The major steps consist in their turn of several subtasks which may be carried out by one or more different persons and/or stakeholders in the Mine Action programme. For data quality purposes, it is important that the data is adequately checked. With multiple permission levels for the Approval, different users can be assigned different permissions, allowing Mine Action Programmes to implement a data-entry workflow that distinguishes between data entry and data verification roles.

The first step of the Data Entry process is the Reconciliation where it is decided if the information received should create a new item or update an existing item. When that is decided then the Data Entry staff known which Action to use.

Data approval is the final step of the Data Entry process. Approved data displays in the items pane.

This page does not include the new Actions New, Edit and Delete that were introduced in 6.0
This sign next to a step is a reminder that you have to refer to your local SOPs to see how this action applies precisely to the reported items taken to the reconciliation process.
