Batch Data Administration

Within the Rural Sourcing Management solution, batch data transactions are those transactions related to the upload and download of the master data, including all transaction data.

The Administration option of the main menu on the Rural Sourcing Management system's Web interface contains three tabs, indicating the three types of batch data handling that you can perform:

  • Transaction Download - This tab opens by default when you select the Administration option. Use this tab to monitor the current status of any transaction downloads that are running and to initiate a new download.
  • Master Data Download - Use this tab monitor the current status of any master data downloads that are running or to initiate a download of the master data listing for a specific organization.
  • Master Data Upload - Use this tab to monitor the current status of any master data uploads that are running and to initiate an upload of master data.
  • Retention Period - Use this tab to define the period of time for retaining personal data once a person has chosen to withdraw consent.

Transaction and master data downloads are in the form of Excel spreadsheets. This is especially useful for low-tech environments, such as local warehouses, cooperative offices, and so on. These data sheets can be used for business reporting and monitoring by your management teams.
