MICS Data Processing Workshop Supervisors Menu

Purpose of the Supervisors Menu Executes supervisors applications –...and displays results Transfers and backs up files Exports files to SPSS Allows entry of GPS data

Starting The Supervisors Menu Double-click on super_menu.pff – create shortcut on desktop First screen asks supervisor to enter a cluster number CCC Options explained on following slides...

Enter Cluster Tracking Information Purpose: – enter tracking information for cluster Actions – displays menu to choose what information to enter – opens cluster tracking information entry screen – cluster tracking information stored in cluster_tracking.dat

Check Data Structure Purpose: – Check structure of a clusters main data file Actions – copies HHCCCM.DAT from a: to c:\mics\cspro\raw – executes structure check application – displays results

Verify the Data Purpose: – Verify a clusters data file Actions – compares c:\mics\cspro\raw\HHCCCM.DAT to a:\HHCCCV.DAT – displays list of differences

Backup the Raw Data Purpose: – Back up a clusters checked and verified data file Action – copies HHCCCM.DAT from c:\mics\cspro\raw to c:\mics\cspro\backup

Run Secondary Editing Program Purpose: – Provide list of inconsistencies for secondary editor Actions – executes secondary editing application – displays list of inconsistencies

Modify the Data Purpose: – Allow supervisor to implement changes requested by secondary editor Action – executes data entry application in modify mode uses input file c:\mics\cspro\raw\HHCCCM.DAT

Backup the Final Data Purpose: – Back up a clusters checked, verified and edited data file Action – copies HHCCCM.DAT from c:\mics\cspro\raw to c:\mics\cspro\final

Export the Data to SPSS Purpose: – Export all completed clusters data files to SPSS Actions – copies all data files in c:\mics\cspro\final to c:\mics\cspro\all.dat – executes export application using all.dat as input – creates SPSS data and description files in c:\mics\spss

Enter GPS Data Purpose: – Enter GPS data Action – executes GPS data entry application in add mode adds cases to c:\mics\cspro\gps\gps.dat

Modify GPS Data Purpose: – Modify GPS data Actions – executes GPS data entry application in modify mode uses input file c:\mics\cspro\gps\gps.dat

New Cluster Number Purpose: – allow supervisor to work on a new cluster Actions – displays cluster number screen – changes value of CCC

View Cluster Tracking Information Purpose: – Provide overview of the status of all the clusters Actions – displays cluster tracking information screen

Quit Purpose: – quit supervisors menu gracefully Actions – closes CSPRO – deletes file justone.txt

Changing from Diskettes to a Network For some countries, data entry will be done on a network – Data copied to a shared drive instead of a diskette If this is the case in your country: – go through the supervisors menu application – make changes indicate by !!! network !!! comments

Modifying the Supervisors Menu Change language in errmsg and display functions Change language in accept functions Check parameters in SUPER_FF preproc; change if necessary Change cluster number check two places in ECLUSTER postproc: at beginning and next to comment:{ !!! Change to your cluster number range } Check date in PROC TRECVY, TENTRYY, TVENTRYY After modifications: Delete cluster_tracking.dat !!!
