Overview#

This operation is used to post data to an existing long-running Data Collection Instance. Data can be posted multiple times until the Data Collection Instance is Closed.

Setup#

No special setup is required other than to meet the preconditions of the transaction.

Preconditions#

• The Data Collection Instance is Open.

Sequence of Steps#

1. From a Material associated to the Data Collection or directly on the Data Collection instance, select Post on the top ribbon.

2. Provide the data as described by the Data Collection definition. It is important to understand that:

   • Mandatory readings of mandatory samples of mandatory Parameters are pre-filled with the default values, if defined.
   • The cells with the red asterisk refer to mandatory values.
   • In case that there are limits defined (not possible for Ad-hoc Data Collections), they are shown on the top-right corner of the Parameter and the color of the cell will change accordingly. If multiple sample limits are defined, they will be displayed according to the sample ID.
   • Depending on the type of user interface you have selected, entering the data can be done in separate text areas corresponding to different fields or they can be entered in grid form. For more information, see User Interfaces: Classic vs Modern.

3. Select Post to complete the operation.
