CRAFT Data Entry and Review Guidance version 14 June 2013
MSC Sustainability POCs: The attached document is the initial release (version 14 June 2013) of CRAFT Data Entry and Review Guidance. The attached guidance was developed collaboratively by EM CX, ERDC, HQ USACE, and various MSC, District and facility-level CRAFT data entry POCs.

The guidance provides step-by-step instructions for those new to CRAFT data entry and can also be used by personnel familiar with CRAFT and Tableau who may have questions regarding specific data entry and review requirements and CRAFT/Tableau capabilities. It also provides guidance on MSC and District-level data review & check-off, correction of current and past years' data, and use of Tableau visualizations for data review and quality control.

We request your support to distribute this guidance to your Districts and projects as appropriate.

If you're familiar with the CRAFT data entry web pages, you'll notice that many of the screen shots in the guidance include changes that are currently pending release. The changes to the CRAFT web pages are intended to streamline access to the various data entry pages, but they do not impact any of the data in CRAFT. The changes you see depicted in the screen shots in the attached guidance will "go-live" on Monday, 17 June 2013.

To assist folks Corps-wide in understanding and implementing the attached guidance, EM CX (Sandy Frye and Melissa Kemling) will be conducting 3 training webinars to walk you through the CRAFT Data Entry and Review guidance over the next few weeks. The date/time and call-in/log-in details for the webinars are listed below.

The web training schedule for using the new CRAFT Data Entry and Review Guidance and the new guidance document are posted on the EKO Sustainability page at https://eko.usace.army.mil/usacecop/environ mental/sustainability/?syspage=Documents&id=259641
