Submitting Data From Budget Workstations

Role of Budget workstation in submitting data

As a Budget workstation user, you can manipulate the data in your personal database using a worksheet and save your work without affecting the shared database. However, if you want other users to have access to your work, you must submit the data from your personal database to the shared database. For example, after you use a worksheet to prepare a budget or forecast, you can submit your work to the shared database where it can be accessed by other users.

Selecting data for submission

The process for submitting data from a budget workstation is similar to the process for submitting data from an administrator workstation.

You choose Submit Data from the Manage menu to submit data. This opens the Submit Data dialog box, where you specify the slice or slices of data that you want to submit. For details, see "Selecting data for submission".

Note: Synchronizing your database

Before you submit data, you must refresh your personal database to synchronize it with the shared database -- that is, your personal database must contain the most current set of structures defined for you by your administrator. For information about refreshing your personal database to incorporate new structures, see "Manually refreshing structures".
