dspCompose

Enter Data for a Request

NOTE: Templates in dspCompose™ are highly customizable and can be configured to have multiple Role IDs with the Role Type of Data. Users assigned to these roles add or update request data. A template can have multiple Data Entry roles. The generic term “Data Entry role” is used throughout this use case, and can refer to one or multiple Role IDs with the Role Type of Data.

There are three methods to update request data in dspCompose™:

  • Manual change is used to manually update records on the data entry page. This option is used if a mass change needs to be made to only a few records in the target ERP system or the changes on the data entry page are unique per record. Refer to Manually Change Data for more information.

  • Mass change is used if there are several records on the data entry page that require the same change. For example, if there are 100,000 records to be loaded into the target system, editing each record individually would not be possible given time constraints. If 10,000 of these records (which can be identified via a Where Clause) require the same change, use the mass change feature to expedite the change process. Refer to Mass Change Data for more information.

  • External change is used to manipulate data that is stored externally to dspCompose™ or if manipulation of that data is streamlined using an external tool. Once the data is manipulated outside of dspCompose™, it can be imported into the request using the View or File methods. To externally change data with a file or a view, refer to Import a View at the Request-Role Level and Import a File at the Request-Role Level.
