 ==Tips==
 * Some handwriting can be pretty tough to decipher. If data entry handwriting is especially bad it might be a good idea to go over the same gizmo a couple of times.
-* Make sure that the gizmo type on the paper matches the gizmo type on the computer, e.g. if you are entering data for systems make sure that the gizmo doesn't come up as a monitor. If the gizmos don't match double check the ID number. If they still don't match consult an instructor.

 * '''Keep''' on the data entry paper translates to '''Stored''' on the computer.
 ==History==
 Data entry lets us keep track of gizmo inflow and outflow. It's good for finding out where stuff is and gathering statistics. It, also, provides on hand mouse usage experience for adopters.  An old school data entry manual can be found [[data entry2|here]]
