UNESCO ICTLIP Module 4. Lesson 3<br />

Note<br />

WinISIS is much more restrictive during data entry<br />

than the DOS version. During data entry <strong>and</strong> editing,<br />

the system checks with the FDT <strong>and</strong> does not allow,<br />

for instance:<br />

• More than one occurrence in a non repeatable field<br />

• A sub-field with an identifier not defined in the<br />

FDT<br />
