InfoEx offers flexibility by supporting observation entry from both single and multiple computers. See Entering and submitting observations overview for details on the two modes. This document describes how an Operation administrator can specify the mode for entering and submitting observations to InfoEx for their operation.

Step-by-step description

1.
Fig. 1: Administration menu for operation administrator.
Select 'Operation Settings' from the administration menu (cog wheel) (Fig. 1).
2.
Fig. 2: Operation settings screen.
The Operation settings page for the operation (Fig. 2).
3. Click on On to support data entry from multiple computers or click on Off if you only enter and submit observations from a single computer. The button will turn white when selected.

The change immediately goes into effect on the local computer. You can check by clicking on the 'OBSERVATION' menu. If you selected to support data entry from multiple computers (on position), the menu contains two items called 'Enter & share' and 'Review & Submit'. In the off position, the menu only contains a single item called 'Enter & Submit'.
