Unit Dataset Parameters

In
MANAGE UNITS
, you can set up the
Unit Dataset Parameters
for Provision, Interim, and Estimated Payments datasets. You enter parameters for a specific unit dataset in order to have additional functionality in the application. Administrators use unit dataset parameters to change how data is treated or represented within a unit.
Before you add Unit Dataset Parameters, review the following:
  • You can add, modify or delete pre-established Unit Dataset Parameters.
  • When adding or modifying parameters, use care, as they can potentially change calculations across all the units in the dataset.
  • Parameters are pre-defined and are case-sensitive. The Key Type and Value have specific designations for each parameter.
  • Deleting parameters is not recommended, because they may be required for the system to function properly. It is recommended that you de-activate a parameter, rather than deleting it.
  • To import a new unit dataset parameter, complete the appropriate fields on the
    #UDSP# UDS Params
    worksheet in the Import Numbers template.
