REQUIREMENTS
Permission All user levels with restrictions
Connectivity Online and Offline

This document describes the process for entering and submitting observations with a single computer setup to the InfoEx.

Background

The process of entering and submitting observation with a single computer setup has two distinct phases:

  1. Entering observations
    • All users of an operation have the permissions to enter observations
    • Observations can be entered without connectivity
  2. Submitting observations to the InfoEx
    • Only users with observation administrators permissions or higher can submit the observations that have been entered on a computer to the InfoEx
    • Whereas it is possible to click on the submit button while being offline, the actual submission to the InfoEx requires connectivity

The following section describes the steps included in both of these phases in detail.

Step-by-step description
