1 OVERVIEW The diagram belw represents the Data Entry wrkflw recmmended by IBM SPSS incrprating synchrnizatin. Essentially it is nly the Data Entry Supervisrs that wuld use synchrnizatin t: - Pull dwn Data Entry prgrams frm a central server nce the prgrams have been cmpleted r updated by DP - Push cmpleted r suspended punched data files (case data) back t the central server fr DP t extract the data themselves using DExTAp V e r s i n 1. 1 P a g e 3
2 CREATE DATA ENTRY SUPERVISOR S ISA (AKA DIMENSIONNET) USER NAME USING REGISTRAR This step needs t cmpleted nce nly fr each Supervisr Yu will need t decide wh wuld be best placed t perfrm this rle fr yur rganizatin It is recmmended that ne user name is created fr each Data Entry Supervisr machine Lg int Registrar at https://reg1.ktrmr.cm/registrar/lgin/default.aspx?returnurl=%2fregistrar%2fdefault.aspx using ISA User Name & Passwrd T create a new user select the Venues tab and click the green plus sign N.B. If n Venues tab r + sign appears, please cnsult the trubleshting sectin V e r s i n 1. 1 P a g e 4
An Insert dialg bx will appear (see screensht belw) Name = Enter full name f new user Descriptin = DATA ENTRY SUPERVISOR COMPANY, LOCATION Field Service = Chse lcatin f Data Entry Supervisr N.B. If there is n apprpriate Field Service, please cnsult the trubleshting sectin Cmment = Leave blank r use t add useful infrmatin abut the Data Entry Supervisr Sigma Cde = Leave blank Lcatin = Input lcatin f Data Entry Supervisr UserName = New user s ISA User Name this needs t be unique & cntain n spaces Type = Cnnected Email = Enter email address f new user. A cnfirmatin and initial passwrd will be sent t this address. Email Cnfirmatin = Re-enter email address f new user Status = Open T create the new user within ISA hit the save buttn dialg bx at the bttm f the An email will be sent t the address specified cntaining the initial passwrd The initial passwrd must be changed by the Data Entry Supervisr (see sectin 3 belw) V e r s i n 1. 1 P a g e 5
3 DATA ENTRY SUPERVISOR MUST CHANGE INITIAL ISA PASSWORD RECEIVED IN EMAIL Open the link https://udb.ktrmr.cm/spssmr/dimensinnet/lgin/ Lgin using the new ISA User Name and passwrd received in email Fllw the prmpts t create a new passwrd (length minimum des apply) & hit Make Changes V e r s i n 1. 1 P a g e 6
4 ASSIGN PROJECT(S) TO DATA ENTRY SUPERVISORS Again yu will need t decide wh wuld be best placed t perfrm this rle fr yur rganizatin. Lg int Registrar at https://reg1.ktrmr.cm/registrar/lgin/default.aspx?returnurl=%2fregistrar%2fdefault.aspx using ISA User Name & Passwrd EITHER select the PROJECTS tab (easiest fr assigning a prject t a number f interviewers) N.B. If n Prjects tab appears r required functinality is nt available, please cnsult the trubleshting sectin Lcate the required prject by typing in infrmatin in the search fields and clicking n the FILTER buttn Click n the required prject t pen the prject (see screensht belw) V e r s i n 1. 1 P a g e 7
In the VENUES sectin, hver ver the black triangle next t Venues t reveal mre ptins and click n Add N.B. If hvering ver the black triangle fails t reveal mre ptins, please cnsult the trubleshting sectin On the ADD VENUES page, a list f all available venues including Data Entry Supervisrs will appear. Use the filters t drill dwn t find the Data Entry Supervisr yu wish t assign the prject t, click the checkbx and hit the save buttn the bttm f the dialg bx at V e r s i n 1. 1 P a g e 8
OR select the VENUES tab (easiest fr assigning a Data Entry Supervisr t a number f prjects) N.B. If n Venues tab appears r required functinality is nt available, please cnsult the trubleshting sectin Lcate the required Prject by typing in infrmatin in the search fields and clicking n the FILTER buttn Select the required Data Entry Supervisr t pen the dialg bx belw In the PROJECTS sectin, hver ver the black triangle next t Prjects t reveal mre ptins and click n Add N.B.

5 LOG INTO INTERVIEWER ON THE DATA ENTRY SUPERVISOR S MACHINE Technical Strategy and Slutins Open Interviewer, chse Nap-S r Sl-V frm the drpdwn next t Lgin t: and enter yur ISA (aka DimensinNet) credentials 6 REGISTER USER NAME Yu need t be cnnected t the internet fr this step This step needs t be dne nce fr each User Name n each machine Click Yes when the User Registratin dialg bx appears The user and machine will nw be registered and synchrnizatin will cmmence (see screensht belw) N.B. On any future synchrnizatins any questinnaires that had been punched but nt sent are always sent back first and by default all prjects will then be resynchrnised. Clse r minimize this screen t start Data Entry. V e r s i n 1. 1 P a g e 10
7 PROJECTS SET TO SYNCHRONIZE & ASSIGNED TO THIS USER NAME THROUGH REGISTRAR WILL BE SYNCHRONIZED DOWN & WILL APPEAR IN THE PROJECT LIST N.B. Fr any prjects that have been unassigned since last synchrnisatin, any questinnaires that had been punched but nt synchrnized are sent back first, the prject is then archived and remved frm the list N.B.If yur prject des nt appear n the list, having shwn as successfully synchrnized, clse this windw and repen by clicking n Prject List at the tp left side f the Interviewer windw V e r s i n 1. 1 P a g e 11
