Data entry is performed by completing field report templates.

Field report templates can present different data entry formats: alphanumeric or numeric-only fields, multiple or single-select lists and widgets, which contain standardised information that can automatically be displayed on the field report template.

Once completed, a field report is ready to be saved or submitted for approval.

Your field report templates have been designed by your local system administrator. Follow your local SOP or contact your local system administrator for guidance on data entry formats.
