While this is a perfectly fine way of doing it, a more efficient way would be to use a Data Entry Form in Excel.īelow is a data entry form that you can use to make entries to this data set.
If you have a huge data set which needs 40 entries, there is a possibility you may end up entering something that was not intended for that cell.Ī data entry form can help by making the process faster and less error-prone.īefore I show you how to create a data entry form in Excel, let me quickly show you what it does.īelow is a data set that is typically maintained by the hiring team in an organization.Įvery time a user has to add a new record, he/she will have to select the cell in the next empty row and then go cell by cell to make the entry for each column. Or scroll to the right and then come back to the beginning in case there are many columns. Sometimes, you need to scroll up and see which column it is and what data needs to be entered. You need to enter the data in one cell, then go to the next cell and enter the data for it. There are two common issues that I have faced (and seen people face) when it comes to data entry in Excel: Why Do You Need to Know About Data Entry Forms?īut if data entry is a part of your daily work, I recommend you check out this feature and see how it can help you save time (and make you more efficient).

Why do people continually think just because we can code we are fucking designers / lawyers / astronauts Oh as an aside, I was putting up a website for a client and they are like "my logo is quite similar to many others, is this something to worry about legally?" OH, SO NOW I'M A LAWYER TOO?!!?!? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE GOOGLE IS LITERALLY IN FRONT OF YOU I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT PROGRAM YOU ARE USING I'M A DEV, NOT A DESIGNER, DO YOUR JOB AND FIGURE IT OUT. so now they are asking ME for those export options. "oh" So I tell them, double check the export options on how you are building the gif, maybe there is something there. I'm like, look at this other gif, works fine. Of course, the designers assume it's me: "are you sure the gif is in the codebase? how are you using it in your component"? yeah ok boomer. So we've got a gif that doesn't show up in our React Native application.
I really hate to be questioned by this dude. I started coding when I was 17, I am 30 now, with a degree and years of experience.
But concerning my job I really.really do not like to be questioned by people that know way the fuck less than me. I shoot the shit here and don't really involve myself with more technical aspects under this platform unless it involves concrete architecture discussions and even there I really don't care with engaging on a forum concerning that. I can't really fault it, last time the dude touched programming was in the early 2000s, previous boss was a C and COBOL developer, but the previous dude would ALWAYS take my word no questions ask, this dude was there asking me if I was sure that Javascript and Java were really completely different environments asking me to show him. My new director later on went to talk to me since he apparently thought that Java and JS were related in some way. The dude continues with "This is new Java tech" all proud and shit prompting me to interject that it is "Javascript" the dude brushes it away saying "same thing" to which I reply with "Negative, please make sure that you properly discern Java from Javascript since Java is to Javascript as car is to carpet, completely different environments" the dude sarcastically says that "oh well, didn't know one of the people here was more aware of our own technology than we are" to which I say "and not only that, but the final say in us adopting your tech is mine, so I would rather you keep the sarcasm and the attitude to yourself, bring in a tech person if need be and learn these distinctions since we don't work with Java" Obviously thinking that no one knows what REact was. The sales people proceed to show us React. This caught my attention since I know of very few and obscure Java frameworks that work with frontend tech (as in, your frontend logic is legit in Java) My only issue was the company that sells it to be known to provide close to 0 fucking support when shit arises.ĭuring a presentation we were told that they were using state of the art JAVA technology to render items on the page and that their ApI was easy for devs to grasp. My new director wants to buy a solution for a portal environment that my institution currently has.
