This is a log files that is created automatically by the [[PDA Reader]]/[[PDA Uploader]]exe. every time the [[Data Processor]] uploads (appends) most of the sent csv files to either the Master Critical Care([[TMSX]]) database or the Master Medicine ([[MedTMS]]) [[:Category: Data Repository | Data Repository]]. | |||

Currently the import log has some machine language written into it which makes rather unreadable. The only way this log is legible is if [[Data Processor]] executes a printout from the [[PDA Reader]]/[[PDA Uploader]].exe. We will stop printing and storing these paper logs in binders above once update is completed. Will have this in place before end of 2012.

*There will be a maximum of 40 characters allowed in the label name for sent CSV data file. If we want electronic log, current PDA reader has a problem with sent files names longer than 16 characters. It truncates the label name when it reads in the log files names. 40 character max will give us some flexibilty and we will than not have to be so strict with these files names, example - "re-sent data" where we typed in added info into send file so Pagasa is clear it is a resend or test also some staff do not use only two letters for their intials when sending files.- [[User:TOstryzniuk|Trish Ostryzniuk]] 20:57, 2012 October 25 (EDT) | |||
==Use of Import log== | ==Use of Import log== | ||
The import log (append log) provides the main office with quick and easy way for to locate and "original sent cvs file" from the backup files on M. | |||
When errors are found in master database by the [[Statistician]], we alway try and trace where the error may originating from in order to decide if error is avoidable or not. We investigate if error was due to: | |||
#collection error | |||
#ccmdb.accdb problem (entry field limits or sending) | |||
#appending error | |||
#data Editing error | |||
We must look at the original sent csv file, to see where error may have originated from before we pursue trying resolve problem. We will then review collection guidelines on Wiki and update and also discuss with collector. For ccmdb we notify [[User: Ttenbergen | Tina]] if there are changes that can be to be made to avoid error. If due to appending we notify programmer for [[TMSX]] or [[MedTMS]]. If error is due to in office editing by [[Data Processor]] we review process. | |||
