Re: Validating incoming records in a Recorder/Recorder transfer
Does anyone have a best solution for this please?
Incoming records have Locations Grid References which are 100k out (clearly demonstrated by dumping the incoming Survey onto a county map)
I'm unable to:
1. edit Event or Sample Spatial Ref from my contributor's recordset,
2. flag the Event or Sample Location as incorrect (e.g. by adding "error" to its name) because the Event Location is also used for correct records,
3. uncheck the species records (a bit laborious anyway for long lists)
4. flag the incorrect Events or Samples as invalid (this would give me chance to write an XML to produce a list)
All I'm able to do is:
1. Hand write all the corrections, contact the author of dataset, ask him to make corrections and do the exports and imports again
2. Masquerade as this author, make the corrections myself, export to him, reimport from him as a double-check
Surely there's a better way
