In this tutorial we show how to export standardized cadre data from a central site to be shared among regional and district installations.
Note: This module assume that the cadre form is stored in magic data. This is the default for iHRIS Manage version 4.0.
Overview
We will create a module called standard-data-cadre that will contain all of the cadre's defined in the system. The module will have version 4.0.YYYY.MM.DD where we replace YYYY with the year, MM with the numeric month and DD with the numeric day. For example the version would be 4.0.2010.08.17 if the data was exported on August 27, 2010.
If we update the cadre list, at a later date (August 20, 2010), then we can re-export the list into the same module standard-data-cadre but this time with version 4.0.2010.08.20.
Once we have created this module, we should make it available and required to each of the regional and district installations.
First Steps -- Enabling the Magic Data Browser
We will export the cadre list using the "Magic Data Browser" module. If it is not available under the "Configure System" menu, then follow these steps to enable it:
- Browse to "Configure System"
- Click the "Configure Modules" link
- Click the link "Sub-Modules" to the right of the "Pages" module
- Check the check box next to "Magic Data Browser"
