Data Entry

What can you do

Axiom Pro supports multiple types of data entry to capture and associate metadata with uploaded content:

• Manual Data Entry
• Auto Data Entry
• One-Many Data Entry

Manual Data Entry

Users enter metadata by typing information directly into predefined fields. This method is flexible and allows for detailed, user-reviewed input.

1. In Input, Open a Batch
2. Enter the Required Fields
3. Click Save

Auto Data Entry

If your catalog has a validation field configured, then it will be used to look up data and populate other related fields.  For example, Employee ID can be used to retrieve the first name, last name and other related fields.

1. In Input, Open a Batch
2. Enter the Validation Field
   1. Press Enter or Return or Tab on the keyboard
3. Verify all associated fields are populated
4. Enter any other Required Fields
5. Click Save

Required Groups

There are times when there might be multiple ways to data enter content based on the information present. The different required fields are grouped together in Field Groups which are then color coded and labeled.

Example - In the screenshot below, there are multiple groups depending on the Data Entry type. For Procurement, there are 2 groups

• Group A consists of Project Number, Procurement Document Category and Confidential
• Group B consists of Confidential
