Fix Event Offsets
The user will have the ability to locate and correct the measure offsets by following these steps:
- Fill in all filters (Statewide/County, Event to Fix, Event to Compare, and Tolerance) to find offsets within the specified parameters.
- Click the “Find Offsets” button to the right of the filters. The table on the lower half of the interface will then update to reflect measure differences between the selected event and the controlled event. The measures of the “Event to Fix” item will appear in bold if they do not match the “Event to Compare” measures.
- Update measures by checking the checkbox in the first column of the table. By checking the checkbox, the "Event to Fix" measures will be updated to reflect the corresponding "Event to Compare" measures once Save Changes is selected.
- Click the “Save Changes” button at the bottom of the interface to update the measures. To save the updates to the source data, click the “Save data to source” checkbox before saving changes.
