Data entry and data processing
When you have completed entering the data and select ‘Complete’ you will see the following
message, just as in the First Entry:
Select ‘Yes’ when there are no more records to enter and no errors to correct.
Alternative ways of working
It is recommended that all of the data entered for one facility is done from one computer.
The basis of this recommendation is that the system may easily cross-check data on different
sheets and assist you in controlling the process when you use the Control form. It is
recognized that circumstances may arise which require that the data entry is continued on a
different machine. If this happens we suggest that both of the First and Second Entry
workbooks relating to a facility are transferred to the other machine and that the data entry
is completed according to the guidelines in this chapter. There are a number of ways in
which this might be done, one example is by saving the workbooks onto a memory stick and
restoring them on another machine.
Data consolidation for all facilities
Once all the data for all the facilities have been entered twice and the corrections made, and
all three forms in all Master files for all facilities have on every page:
The data can be imported into the summary file.
All the data for all sheets needs to be entered twice before importing to
the consolidated data file.
