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. Reconcile
  2. Data Entry
  3. Approve.

Data entry is performed by completing Data Entry Form templates. Data Entry Form templates contain different data field formats for example: alphanumeric or numeric fields, multiple or single-select lists and table widgets.

Once completed, a Data Entry Form may be Saved or Submitted for approval.

The Data Entry Form templates have been designed by your IMSMA administrator. Follow your local SOP or contact your IMSMA administrator for guidance on how to enter data.


How To

Data Entry Process

In the previous step of the Data Entry process, Reconcile, which Action and Data Entry Form template to use have been decided.

Adding Attachments to the Data Entry Form

  1. Click to upload a new attachment

Links

Example Relationships Among Items

Note: Connections to Country Structure and Location have been omitted from the example

The last step of the Data Entry is to specify on the Reconciliation tab if the item should be linked to another item. In IMSMANG the links implicate a relationship between the items. For example:

  • a link between an Activity and a Victim means that the Victim is a Demining Victim;
  • a link between two Victims means that they are family.
