Add Item Attributes to the Design Pane: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 10:07, 27 May 2014

After you have specified the page setup for the data entry form template, you can begin adding item attributes/fields. To add attributes to the data entry form in the Data Entry Form Template Designer window:

Expand the item folder that contains the attribute by double-clicking the folder name in the Elements pane.
Expand the data category that contains the item attribute.
Click the name of the attribute you would like to add to the data entry form.
While holding down the left mouse button, drag the attribute to the form design pane.
When the item attribute is in the desired position, release the mouse button.

Template:Important

The element and its label are placed in the form design pane.

	You can also add all item attributes to the data entry form by dragging the folder of the item to the design pane.

Repeat the above steps to add additional item attributes to the data entry form.

When item attributes are dragged to the design pane, they typically include both a text label and the data entry field. The data entry field and label should be kept together to ensure the integrity of the data. Although you can change the label text, be sure to provide a meaningful label so that it is clear to users what data they should enter in the field.

Location Name Field

Location Name Field

Depending on which data type the item attribute is and on the settings in the Data Inventory Manager the control / widget is different.

Type in DIM	Setting in DIM	Example	Widget	Control / widget
System	No	Land ID	Local ID Generator
Country Structure	No	Victim Living In	Country Structure
Date	No	Status changed date	Date
Organisation	No	Organisation	Organisation
Place	No	Status changed date	Place
Single Select	Yes	Land Status	Radio button
Single Select	Yes	Status changed reason	Combo box	File:Xxx.png
String / Text	Only for CDFs	Land Name	Text Field
String / Text	Only for CDFs	Major Impacts	Text Area

In addition to the text label and data entry field, certain item attributes such as date fields, country structure, and geospatial data will also include an icon. You should keep these elements together to ensure the integrity of the data. If any one of the elements is removed, you should remove all related elements.

As you add and remove item attributes to the form design pane, the Logical Tree pane is updated.
