Chapter 1:
Overview of the AWBDS Process
This chapter introduces the new Automated Web-Based Data-Submission (AWBDS) process which States can
use to submit, review, and approve their monthly/quarterly animal disease program data for inclusion in the
Veterinary Services (VS) National Reports.
• Non-GDB States (those that do not have their own local Generic Data Base setup) will need to use all of the
AWBDS submission, review, update, and approval features. These AWBDS features together completely
replace the Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet/ transmission file method that these States formerly used.
• States that do have a Local GDB setup will use only some of the AWBDS features. These States will still use
the GDB for their data-submission work. Once their program data is stored in the GDB, these States can then
use the AWBDS review, update, and approval features.
• Some States may have only a partial GDB implementation. These States will need to use the two approaches
described above accordingly.
The distinctions on using the AWBDS process between Non-GDB States and GDB States is further explained in the
next section of this chapter.

Major Features of the AWBDS Process

Web-Based Application and Report-Specific Webforms
The AWBDS process is an application that runs at a dedicated web site, available via a normal Internet connection.
Once a State logs into this web site, it can then choose and use a variety of electronic forms (referred to hereafter as
"webforms") that have been customized for the TB6-2, PRV-190, and SPR national reports. For each of these three
Headquarter reports, the AWBDS provides a set of data-submission, query, and approval webforms.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control
The AWBDS process simplifies the reporting process and implements Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control
(QC) measures in order to minimize errors in the data reported to the National Animal Health Program Staff
(NAHPS). Each state’s Area-Veterinarian-In-Charge (AVIC) identified a QA list of one to five persons whose role
is to receive the PDF version of the report via email, review the report for accuracy, and report to the QC person
when the report is ready for final approval. The AVIC also identified a QC person for each disease program whose
role is to approve the report. When the reports are approved as correct, the approver’s userid and the date and time
of approval will be recorded in the database.

Treatment of Each Section in a Report as an Individual Function
The AWBDS process will consider and treat each section of each program report as a separate report function. For
example, your State has two animal disease programs: Tuberculosis for Bovines, Caprines, Cervids, and Other
Species; and Pseudorabies for Swine. Your State will use the AWBDS process to approve and submit the following
17 reports:
TB6-2 for Bovines…Section A
TB6-2 for Bovines…Section B
TB6-2 for Bovines…Section C
TB6-2 for Caprines…Section A
TB6-2 for Caprines…Section B

The AWBDS Process for Non-GDB States
Current Process
A non-GDB-using State previously had to submit its program data to NAHPS at VS Headquarters by performing
the following tasks:
1.
2.
3.
4.

Enter the program data manually into a Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet.
Use a macro or script to convert each spreadsheet into a transmission file.
Use a compression utility to reduce the size of each transmission file.
E-mail the transmission files to VS Headquarters.

New Process
The AWBDS web-based application gives non-GDB States the ability to enter their monthly summary data into new
web-based forms for each program disease for which they are responsible to report. When a non-GDB State enters
its monthly summary data into the web-based form and saves the records, the monthly summary data will be stored
into the same temporary holding tables used by the GDB using states.
On the 5th day of each month, the AWBDS's automated process will trigger the automated scheduler application to
run the monthly program report(s) from data the state has been entered into the web-based forms and saved in
temporary holding tables. The process will then send a PDF copy of the monthly report for each report section via
an e-mail message to the 1-5 designated QA person(s) designated by the AVIC. If the state has not yet entered its
data into the web-based forms by the 5th of the month, the state will receive a PDF copy of the report reflecting
zeros for the monthly data entry values. The state will then have approximately 40 days to log into the web-based
application to enter/correct the appropriate summary data for that month. The state’s monthly summary data will
remain in the temporary holding tables until the QC process is completed as described above.
The QA process allows the 1-5 QA person(s) who receive the PDF reports to review the section reports for accuracy
and to report to their designated state QC person on the accuracy of the monthly report data. The automated process
will allow a QC person (per disease program) to approve the monthly data as accurate. To do this, the QC person
will log into a new web-based application system and respond that they have reviewed the data with the QA
person(s) and that they are approving the monthly report on behalf of the state. If the monthly report data is not yet
ready for approval (i.e., the monthly data is not correct or for another reason the monthly report needs to be re-run),
the process allows the QC person to indicate the status of the data. If the data needs to be corrected, the process
allows the data entered for the report to be corrected by the state. After the data is corrected in the report using the
webforms, the QC person will log into the new web-based system and request that the section report be re-run.
Every four hours, the automated scheduler will look for reports that have been approved or that need to be re-run.
Each section of each report is handled as an independent report; therefore, certain sections can be approved and
others disapproved. Only those that are not approved will be re-run and notification sent for review. For reports
that need to be re-run, the automated scheduler application will re-run the report(s) so they contain the corrected
data, and the process will loop through the same dissemination process for review and approval. When the report is
accurate, the QC person finally approves the monthly report. When a positive confirmation is received from the
designated QC person that the data is verified and approved as correct, the State's summary data for that month will
be transferred from the temporary holding tables to the production National Reports Database tables and be made
available for historical reporting purposes.

1. Each month/quarter, the data-entry staff for a State will enter its TB6-2, PRV-190, or SPR data manually into the appropriate
submission webforms at the AWBDS web site. This submission data is then stored in the tables of the Temporary Holding
Database.
th
2. On the 5 day of each month, the Auto-Scheduler application (installed on the CEAH Server) will do two tasks: (a) run the
report(s) and (b) send a PDF copy of each report section, via e-mail message, to 1-5 Quality Assurance (QA) representatives
assigned to the State's disease program.
3. Each QA representative reviews the data for accuracy and completeness. If the data in a report section:
-- is not accurate, the QA representative notifies the State (Step E1). The State corrects its data and updates the appropriate
submission webforms at the AWBDS web site (Step E2). The State's Quality Control (QC) representative for the disease
program then requests that the report be re-run. Using the corrected data, this re-run command alerts the Auto-Scheduler
to re-send the revised PDF file(s) to the 1-5 QA representatives for another review.
-- is accurate, the QA representative notifies the QC representative.
4. The QC representative records his/her approval of each report section at the AWBDS web site.
5. Once a report section's data has been approved, the AWBDS web site notifies the Temporary Holding Database.
6. The approved data is then moved from the Temporary Holding Database into the National Reports Database. This data is now
available for data-retrieval and data-analysis work by VS Disease Program Managers and VS Epidemiologists.

The AWBDS Process for GDB-Using States
Current Process
Many states enter data directly into the GDB application for managing their TB, PRV, BR and JOH domestic
surveillance programs. For the states that choose to use the GDB, the required program monthly headquarter
reports (including: TB6-2, the PRV-190, the Standard Program reports for sections A-L, and the Sections M and N
for Johnes) have been directly produced from the GDB by MANUALLY selecting the desired report(s) from the
GDB program menu. The summary data contained in the output of these reports is then placed into the Headquarter
Reports Database currently housed at Riverdale. From these database tables, the Program Managers and
Epidemiologists currently have the capability to run headquarters reports by month, year, event type etc. for any of
these domestic programs.

New Process
GDB States will continue to enter their program data directly into the GDB application as is done under the current
process described above. Once the data is in the GDB, however, these States can then begin using the AWBDS
process.
The AWBDS process will automatically run the report(s) via an automated scheduler program. On the 5th day of
each month, the automated process will trigger an automated scheduler application to log into a state's local GDB
database, run the report, and save the monthly summary data into temporary storage tables. It is from these
temporary tables that the automated scheduler program will run the monthly program report(s), send a PDF copy of
each report section of the monthly report via e-mail messages to the 1-5 designated QA person(s) designated by the
AVIC. The state’s monthly summary data will remain in the temporary holding tables until the QC process is
completed. Once the data is saved into the temporary storage tables, the states using GDB will have approximately
40 days to review and approve their monthly reporting data.
The QA process allows the 1-5 QA person(s) who receive the PDF reports to review the section reports for accuracy
and to report to their designated state QC person on the accuracy of the monthly report data. The automated process
will allow a QC person (per disease program) to approve the monthly data as accurate. To do this, the QC person
will log into a new web-based application system and respond that they have reviewed the data with the QA
person(s) and that they are approving the monthly report on behalf of the state. If the monthly report data is not yet
ready for approval (i.e., the monthly data is not correct or for another reason the monthly report needs to be re-run),
the process allows the QC person to indicate the status of the data. If the data needs to be corrected, the process
allows the data entered for the report to be corrected by the state. After the data is corrected in the state’s local
GDB, the QC person will log into the new web-based system and request that the section report be re-run. Every
four hours, the automated scheduler will look for reports that have been approved or that need to be re-run. Each
section of each report is handled as an independent report; therefore, certain sections can be approved and others
disapproved. Only those that are not approved will be re-run and notification sent for review. For reports that need
to be re-run, the automated scheduler application will re-run the report(s) so they contain the corrected data, and the
process will loop through the same dissemination process for review and approval. When the report is accurate, the
QC person finally approves the monthly report. When a positive confirmation is received from the designated QC
person that the data is verified and approved as correct, the State's summary data for that month will be transferred
from the temporary holding tables to the production National Reports Database tables and be made available for
historical reporting purposes.

The AWBDS Web Site
In the previous section, you learned about the AWBDS process. You will be doing all of the work in this process at
the AWDBDS web site.
Below is a chart that illustrates the contents of the AWBDS web site. The pages in this web site are grouped into
three task-oriented areas:
• Task 1: Entering and submitting your State's animal disease management program data.
• Task 2: (Done by QA and QC personnel only)… Reviewing and approving the data submitted by a State.
• Task 3: Running (generating) new VS National Surveillance Program Reports, which will now include the
data submitted by your State.

Working in the AWBDS Webforms
All of your data-entry work will be done within the webforms found at the AWBDS web site. While their contents
and labels may differ, all of these forms have the same general "look and feel". An example of the data-submission
form that you would use to submit your State's TB6-2 summary data appears below.

Figure 1-4. Typical Features on an AWBDS Webform
Note how this form is divided into three sections:
• the area above the dark blue Title Bar at the very top contains the Menu Bar and Toolbar, whose commands
you can use to speed up your data-entry work within each webform.
• the yellow block just beneath the Title Bar is where you specify the parameters (such as the animal species and
disease program) for the report you want to generate.
• the bottom light blue block contains tabbed pages for each individual section of the TB6-2 report. On these
tabbed pages, you will enter premises- and animal-related data that will be used to generate the national
Tuberculosis Eradication Program Activities reports.
Another feature to note are the data fields on the form that have an ! or L button next to them (see the Report
Section Letter and Stage fields above). This kind of data field does not let you enter any data you wish -- instead,
you must choose from a List of Values associated with that field. However, you can enter your choice into this kind
of data field in any of several ways:
• Click on the ! or L button to display the field's List of Values, highlight your choice in the list, then click
OK.
• Type the first letter of your choice, and then press ENTER. The web site will automatically finish spelling
your choice for you.
• Double-click over the data field that has an L button next to it.

Installing the Jinitiator Plug-In Utility
The task of installing the Jinitiator plug-in utility, version 1.3.1.13, needs to be done only once. You should do this
prior to the first work session in which you want to run the AWBDS application. Only a person who has a
Windows user profile containing administrative privileges will be allowed to install this plug-in. If you do not have
administrative privileges, you will not be able to do this procedure.

1.1

If necessary, boot up your computer and log into Windows as you normally do.

1.2

Connect your computer to the Internet.

1.3

Start up the Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser application.

1.4

In the Address field of the web browser, enter the following URL to go to the AWBDS website:
http://mdrdoras54.aphis.usda.gov:7783/forms90/f90servlet?config=gdbnatrpt

1.5

A white screen will appear, which will look different depending on the user profile you used when logging
into Windows back in Step 1.1.
• If you do not have administrative privileges, the white screen you see will remain blank, and you may
see the word Done in the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen.
You cannot proceed any further in this procedure. You must exit the browser, and then contact your IT
department or supervisor for help.
• If you do have administrative privileges, the white screen will have a "red X" graphic icon in the upperleft corner. You can now continue with the Jinitiator plug-in installation by doing the rest of the steps in
this procedure.

1.6

After a short delay, you may see a pop-up message box in the middle of the white screen, explaining the
Information Bar feature. Click on OK to have this feature installed and to close this box.

1.7

Directly below the Address field, you should see a yellow bar containing a message, like the one shown
here:

a. Click once anywhere inside the yellow bar to highlight the entire message.
b. Click and hold once on the phrase, Click here to install…, to display a drop-down menu.
c. In the drop-down menu, click on the Install ActiveX Control… option (as shown below).

Next, you will see a Setup Progress pop-up box that shows in real-time the downloading
activity of the Jinitiator software).

1.11

Draft – 1 Dec 2004

1.8

The InstallShield Wizard program then begins the Jinitiator installation process. The white screen will
change to green, and you will be presented with a series of dialog boxes. For each dialog box, accept the
default option.
After the wizard program finishes its work, you should see a Jinitiator installation complete message.

1.9

You now need to wait for 1-2 minutes for the AWBDS application to configure itself and start up.
Eventually, you will see the Logon box shown below:

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Jinitiator. You will not need to do this procedure again.
For all future work sessions, you should instead use the Logging into the AWBDS Web Site procedure found
in the next section of this chapter.

1.12

Draft – 1 Dec 2004

Logging into the AWBDS Web Site
Below is the procedure to follow each time you want to start a new work session and use the AWBDS application
and web site. This procedure applies to both GDB-using States and non-GDB-using States.

1.1

If necessary, boot up your computer and log into Windows as you normally do.

1.2

Connect your computer to the Internet.

1.3

Start up the Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser application.

1.4

In the Address field of the web browser, enter the following URL to go to the AWBDS website:
http://mdrdoras54.aphis.usda.gov:7783/forms90/f90servlet?config=gdbnatrpt

1.5

When the Logon screen (shown below) appears onscreen, do the following:

a. In the Username1 field, type your user name.
b. In the Password1 field, type your password.
c. In the Database2 field, type the name of the production database, which is this: mdapnat
(If you have any questions about what login values you should be entering, contact your system
administrator.)
d. Click on the Connect button.
1

If your State has a Local GDB, then use the same Username/Password that you normally use to log into
the GDB on your local database. If your State does not use GDB, then you should request a new
Username/Password by contacting the GDB Helpdesk (see Chapter 14 for details).

2

Always use mdapnat (the literal name of the production database) in this field.

1.13

Information Needed to Enter into the TB6-2
Data-Submission Webform
To do this procedure, you need to have available the summary data from your State's TB6-2 monthly report
regarding Tuberculosis (TB) eradication activities. This summary data may be compiled from your State's
Tuberculosis program data collection documents (such as those shown below), or from other sources.

Requirements on Using the TB6-2 Data-Submission
Webform
When you open the TB6-2 Data-Submission webform on the AWBDS web site, you will see that the webform has
three tabbed pages on it -- one tabbed page for each of the three sections (A1, B1, and C1) that make up the VS
TB6-2 National Report. There are two requirements regarding this TB6-2 Data-Submission webform.
Requirement 1:
You must complete all three tabbed pages on the TB6-2 Data-Submission webform, even if you have no data this
month to enter on one or more of its pages.
Example: For this month, your State
• does have TBCF testing data to submit – you would enter this data on the Section A1 tabbed page of the
webform.
• does have TBCC testing data to submit – you would enter this data on the Section B1 tabbed page of the
webform.
• does not have any slaughter test results to submit -- you would enter the number 0 (zero) in each data field on
the Section C1 tabbed page of the webform.

Requirement 2:
The VS TB6-2 National Report has four parts in it, each part representing a species group: BOV, CAP, CER, and
OTH (which includes any species that are not BOV, CAP, or CER). In order to provide all of the necessary data for
the National Report, you will need to enter data for each of these four parts in each of the three sections of your
TB6-2 Data-Submission webform.
Example: To successfully submit your State's TB data for the month of September 2004, you will need to complete:
• Section A1 four times (one time each for BOV, CAP, CER, and OTH)
• Section B1 four times (one time each for BOV, CAP, CER, and OTH)
• Section C1 four times (one time each for BOV, CAP, CER, and OTH)
Note: If there was NO DATA during a report period for a particular part (species group), you must instead create
and submit a null report (one with all zeros) for that part. In other words, if your State does not have any TB data
to report for the CER species, you would create and submit a null Section A1 report for CER, a null Section B1
report for CER, and a null Section C1 report for CER.

Procedure for Completing the TB6-2 Data-Submission
Webform
This procedure describes how to fill out all three sections (A1, B1, and C1) of the TB6-2 Data-Submission webform
during a single work session. However, if you cannot complete all three sections of the webform during a single
work session, you can work on each section individually. But keep in mind that this approach will require you to
keep track of the data you entered into the Report Parameters block (the top block on the webform) – some fields in
this block must contain the same data regardless of which section you are currently working in.
To Work On:

Do These Steps Of This Procedure:

Sections A1, B1, and C1
Section A1 only
Section B1 only
Section C1 only

Step 1.1 through Step 1.9

Updating Your State's Data for a
TB6-2 National Report
This chapter covers the procedures for updating your State's Tuberculosis disease program data, using a set of
customized TB6-2 Query webforms available at the AWBDS web site.
You can perform these procedures as long as the Quality Control (QC) person for your State has not yet approved
your State's monthly Tuberculosis summary data.

Draft – 1 Dec 2004

Introduction
The AWBDS process allows you to modify, if necessary, the data you have submitted for your State's TB program.
There are two steps involved in updating an existing TB6-2 Data-Submission record:
1.

You first retrieve from the Temporary Holding Database the record you want to update. This is
accomplished by specifying one or more search values on a customized TB6-2 Query webform. There are
three of these customized Query webforms, one for each of the three sections in the TB6-2 report. You
then execute your query; any matching TB6-2 Data-Submission records found will be retrieved and
displayed onscreen, one at a time, within the Query webform. You can view, print, and modify these
records right there within the Query webform itself.

2.

Once you have updated a Data-Submission record, you then use the Auto-Scheduler utility at the AWBDS
web site to process your revised data. You accomplish this by leaving the Query webform and going to a
different area of the web site. In this new area, you will use an Approval webform to instruct the AutoScheduler to immediately (rather than wait until the 5th day of the next month) process your record.
Once the Auto-Scheduler has been alerted, it will do three tasks:
• Generate a new report from your modified Data-Submission record.
• Create a PDF version of the new report and e-mail it to the appropriate QA personnel in your State.
• Transfer the data in the updated report into the Temporary Holding Database. The data will remain
here until it has been officially reviewed and approved by the QC personnel.

You can query for, retrieve, and modify your State's TB6-2 Data-Submission records at any time, as long as the data
has not yet been approved by your State's QC personnel. Once a QC representative approves a TB6-2 DataSubmission record, its data is moved from the Temporary Holding Database to a permanent National Reports
Database. After this move occurs, the data can no longer be retrieved for the purposes of updating it.

When Not to Update Your TB6-2 Data
In Chapter 1, you learned that the Auto-Scheduler utility is pre-programmed to routinely do its three tasks on the 5th
day of every month. If by this date, your State:
• has finished entering its program report data for the previous month/quarter, the Auto-Scheduler will generate
the appropriate reports, e-mail them to QA personnel, and transfer the data to the Temporary Holding
Database.
• has not finished entering its program report data, the Auto-Scheduler will still generate, e-mail, and transfer
the appropriate reports, but these reports will be null (containing only zeros).
To avoid potential processing and data errors, do not attempt to update a null TB6-2 report. Instead, you should
delete it (see Chapter 4) and submit your data again in a new Data-Submission webform (see Chapter 2).
The reason you should not try to do this kind of update is that, for a null report the Auto-Scheduler creates only one
Test Reason line in a report section, with all zeroes. For example, your State has TB6-2 data for three different Test
Reasons in Section A, but the data did not get entered before the 5th deadline. The Auto-Scheduler will create a
Section A report with null values for just one Test Reason line. Several days later, you try to use a Query webform
to correct the null data in this report as well as add new data for the other two Test Reasons. You could update one
line – but the system will not allow you to enter the additional lines except in the Data-Submission webform. It will
be easier and safer to just delete the null report file and to enter all the data for the report section at one time in a
new Data-Submission webform.

c. Your query may retrieve more than one record. To be sure that you have the record you want,
scroll through all of the retrieved records by doing the following:
i.

Click inside the Event Type field.

ii.

Press the DOWN ARROW key on your computer keyboard. Each time you do so, a new
record will be displayed in the query form. So if your query retrieved four records, you
would need to press the DOWN ARROW key four times to see all of these records, one at
a time.
If you executed the search example shown in the above screen shot, you would have
retrieved every record containing SP=BOV, Event Type=TBCF, and Test Reason= TK or
TR or TE.

iii.

When the record you want is displayed in the form, click on Save. Below is an example of
a retrieved TB6-2 Data-Submission record for Section A:

d. If you want to modify this record, do so following these steps:
i.

Highlight the first value you want to modify.

ii.

Type the new value you want to use.

iii.

Repeat these two steps of highlighting-overtyping for each value you want to change.

iv.

After you have modified all of the values in this record, click on Save.

e. You can now do either of the following:
• If you modified the Data-Submission record for a TB6-2 report section, you now need to
instruct the Auto-Scheduler utility at the AWBDS web site to process this data. Go
directly now to the next section in this chapter, Procedure 2: Using the Auto-Scheduler
to Process Your Updated Data.
• You can exit the AWBDS web site by clicking on the Exit buttons in each webform or

Procedure 2:
Using the Auto-Scheduler to Process Your Updated
Data
Now that you have modified the record for a TB6-2 report section, you need to alert the Auto-Scheduler utility that
you have new data for it to process. You accomplish this task by leaving the Data Entry Forms area of the website
to work in the Approval Summary Data area. Follow the instructions below:

2.1

In the Query webform where you just modified the record for a TB6-2 report section, click on Exit.

2.2

The Summary Data Entry Forms main menu (shown at right)
now appears.
In this screen, click on Exit. You have now left the Data Entry
Forms area of the website.

2.3

The National Surveillance Program Reports main menu now
appears.
Click on the Approve Summary Data option. You have now
entered the Approval area of the website.

2.8

Click on Approve. This action notifies the Auto-Scheduler utility to generate a new report from your
modified Data-Submission record, send PDF copies of the report to the appropriate QA personnel, and
move the report data to the Temporary Holding Database. (If you click on the Approve option without
having the Re-run flag appear next to the appropriate report section, this means that you are approving the
report "as is" and that you consider the report ready to be moved to the permanent National Reports
Database.)

2.9

Even though you modified the record for only one TB6-2 report section, you may still see three popup
messages that describe the actions done by the Auto-Scheduler for all three sections shown on this screen.
Click OK in each popup window to close it.

Information Needed to Enter into the PRV-190
Data-Submission Webform
To do this procedure, you need to have available the summary data from your State's PRV-190 monthly report
regarding Pseudorabies (PRV) eradication activities. This summary data may be compiled from your State's
Pseudorabies program data collection documents or from other sources.

Requirements on Using the PRV-190 Data-Submission
Webform
The PRV-190 Data-Submission webform has five tabbed pages on it -- one tabbed page for each of the five sections
(A, B, C, E, and F) that make up the VS PRV-190 National Report. You must complete all five tabbed pages on the
PRV-190 Data-Submission webform, even if you have no data this month to enter on one or more of its pages.
Example: For this month , your State
• does have herd status data to submit – you would enter this data on the Section A tabbed page of the webform.
• does have market/slaughter surveillance data to submit – you would enter this data on the Section B tabbed
page of the webform.
• does not have any results regarding traceback of market/slaughter surveillance positives to submit -- you
would enter the number 0 (zero) in each data field on the Section C tabbed page of the webform.
• does not have data regarding the source of infection in new herds to submit – you would enter the number 0
(zero) in each data field on the Section E tabbed page of the webform.
• does have summary data regarding on farm testing results to submit – you would enter this data on the
Section F tabbed page of the webform.

Procedure for Completing the PRV-190
Data-Submission Webform
This procedure describes how to fill out all five sections (A, B, C, E, and F) of the PRV-190 Data-Submission
webform during a single work session. However, if you cannot complete all five sections of the webform during a
single work session, you can work on each section individually. But keep in mind that this approach will require
you to keep track of the data you entered into the Report Parameters block (the top block on the webform) – some
fields in this block must contain the same data regardless of which section you are currently working in.

Draft – 1 Dec 2004

Introduction
The AWBDS process allows you to modify, if necessary, the data you have submitted for your State's Pseudorabies
program. You accomplish this by filling out a customized PRV-190 Query webform. There are five of these
customized Query webforms, one for each of the five sections in the PRV-190 report. The values you enter on a
Query webform will be used to find any PRV-190 Data-Submission records that are stored in a Temporary Holding
Database. If any PRV-190 Data-Submission records in the database match the values on your Query webform,
these records are retrieved and displayed onscreen, one at a time, within the Query webform. You can view, print,
and modify these records right there within the Query webform itself.
You can query for, retrieve, and modify your State's PRV-190 Data-Submission records at any time, as long as the
data has not yet been approved by your State's QC personnel. Once a QC representative approves any of your
State's PRV-190 Data-Submission records, the data is moved from the Temporary Holding Database to a permanent
National Reports Database. After this move occurs, the data can no longer be retrieved for the purposes of
modifying it.
The procedure on the next page will show you how to use the PRV-190 Query webforms.

When Not to Update Your PRV-190 Data
In Chapter 1, you learned that the Auto-Scheduler utility is pre-programmed to routinely do its three tasks on the 5th
day of every month. If by this date, your State:
• has finished submitting its program data for the previous month/quarter, the Auto-Scheduler will generate the
appropriate reports, e-mail them to QA personnel, and transfer the data to the Temporary Holding Database.
• has not finished/finished submitting its program data, the Auto-Scheduler will still generate, e-mail, and
transfer the appropriate reports, but these reports will be null (containing only zeros).
To avoid potential processing and data errors, do not attempt to update a null PRV-190 report. Instead, you should
delete it (see Chapter 8) and submit your data again in a new Data-Submission webform (see Chapter 6).
The reason you should not try to do this kind of update is that, for a null report the Auto-Scheduler creates only one
Line or Prem Type in a report section, with all zeroes. For example, your State has PRV-190 data for three different
Prem Types in Section C, but the data did not get entered before the 5th deadline. The Auto-Scheduler will create a
Section C report with null values for just one of those Prem Types. Several days later, you try to use a Query
webform to correct the null data in this report as well as add new data for the other two Prem Types. You could
update one Prem Type – but the system will not allow you to enter the additional Prem Types except in the DataSubmission webform. It will be easier and safer to just delete the null report file and to enter all the data for the

Click on Approve. This action notifies the Auto-Scheduler utility to generate a new report from your
modified Data-Submission record, send PDF copies of the report to the appropriate QA personnel, and
move the report data to the Temporary Holding Database. (If you click on the Approve option without

report "as is" and that you consider the report ready to be moved to the permanent National Reports
Database.)

This chapter is for those States "not using" the GDB to enter their Brucellosis or Johnes surveillance data. It covers
the procedures for using, completing, and submitting your State's monthly Brucellosis or Johne's eradication
summary data, using the AWBDS SPR Data-Submission webform. The topics in this chapter appear below:

Information Needed to Enter into the SPR
Data-Submission Webform
The Standard Program Report (SPR) is a generic report template that can report data for three of Veterinary
Services' animal disease management programs: Brucellosis, Johne's, and Equine Infectious Anemia. The SPR
report summarizes your data for a variety of disease eradication activities on farms and ranches, at markets, and at
slaughter establishments.
In the same spirit, we have provided a single SPR Data-Submission webform for you to use to submit your data for
these three disease programs. To use this webform, you will need to have available the monthly or quarterly
summary data for your particular disease program. This summary data may be compiled from your State's program
data collection documents or from other sources.

Requirements on Using the SPR Data-Submission
Webform
The SPR Data-Submission webform has fifteen tabbed pages on it -- one tabbed page for each of the fifteen sections
that make up the VS SPR National Report. The table below shows the kinds of data that you can enter into the
various sections of the SPR Data-Submission webform.

Chapter 11:
Updating Your State's Data for an
SPR National Report
This chapter covers the procedures for updating your State's Brucellosis and Johne's disease program data, using a
set of customized SPR Query webforms available at the AWBDS web site.
You can perform these procedures as long as the Quality Control (QC) person for your State has not yet approved
your State's monthly Brucellosis or Johnes summary data.

Introduction
The AWBDS process allows you to modify, if necessary, the data you have submitted for your State's Brucellosis or
Johne's disease program. You accomplish this by filling out a customized SPR Query webform. There are sixteen
of these customized Query webforms, one for each of the sixteen sections in the SPR report. The values you enter
on a Query webform will be used to find any SPR Data-Submission records that are stored in a Temporary Holding
Database. If any SPR Data-Submission records in the database match the values on your Query webform, these
records are retrieved and displayed onscreen, one at a time, within the Query webform. You can view, print, and
modify these records right there within the Query webform itself.
You can query for, retrieve, and modify your State's SPR Data-Submission records at any time, as long as the data
has not yet been approved by your State's QC personnel. Once a QC representative approves any of your State's
SPR Data-Submission records, the data is moved from the Temporary Holding Database to a permanent National
Reports Database. After this move occurs, the data can no longer be retrieved for the purposes of modifying it.
The procedure on the next page will show you how to use the SPR Query webforms.

When Not to Update Your SPR Data
In Chapter 1, you learned that the Auto-Scheduler utility is pre-programmed to routinely do its three tasks on the 5th
day of every month. If by this date, your State:
• has finished submitting its program data for the previous month/quarter, the Auto-Scheduler will generate the
appropriate reports, e-mail them to QA personnel, and transfer the data to the Temporary Holding Database.
• has not finished/finished submitting its program data, the Auto-Scheduler will still generate, e-mail, and
transfer the appropriate reports, but these reports will be null (containing only zeros).
To avoid potential processing and data errors, do not attempt to update a null SPR report. Instead, you should
delete it (see Chapter 12) and submit your data again in a new Data-Submission webform (see Chapter 10).
The reason you should not try to do this kind of update is that, for a null report the Auto-Scheduler creates only one
Line or Prem Type in a report section, with all zeroes. For example, your State has SPR data for three different
Prem Types in Section G, but the data did not get entered before the 5th deadline. The Auto-Scheduler will create a
Section G report with null values for just one of those Prem Types. Several days later, you try to use a Query
webform to correct the null data in this report as well as add new data for the other two Prem Types. You could
update one Prem Type – but the system will not allow you to enter the additional Prem Types except in the DataSubmission webform. It will be easier and safer to just delete the null report file and to enter all the data for the
report section at one time in a new Data-Submission webform.

Procedure 2:
Using the Auto-Scheduler to Process Your Updated
Data
Now that you have modified the record for an SPR report section, you need to alert the Auto-Scheduler utility that
you have new data for it to process. You accomplish this task by leaving the Data Entry Forms area of the website
to work in the Approval Summary Data area. Follow the instructions below:

2.1

In the Query webform where you just modified the record for an SPR report section, click on Exit.

2.2

The Summary Data Entry Forms main menu (shown at right)
now appears.
In this screen, click on Exit. You have now left the Data Entry
Forms area of the website.

2.3

The National Surveillance Program Reports main menu now
appears.
Click on the Approve Summary Data option. You have now
entered the Approval area of the website.

2.4

The National Surveillance Reports Menu (shown at right) will
appear onscreen.

11.55

Draft – 1 Dec 2004

2.5

Fill out the header block with the appropriate parameters for the SPR report section whose DataSubmission record you just updated.

2.6

In the bottom block of this same menu, click on the [2] next to the SPR National Summary Report Data
option.

2.7

An SPR Approval Forms screen (shown below) now appears.

In the field next to the report section whose record you just modified, click on the down arrow and select
the Re-run the Report option (as shown below). The Re-run… option flags the report section that is to
be re-sent to your State's QA personnel again for review.

11.56

Draft – 1 Dec 2004

2.8

Click on Approve. This action notifies the Auto-Scheduler utility to generate a new report from your
modified Data-Submission record, send PDF copies of the report to the appropriate QA personnel, and
move the report data to the Temporary Holding Database. (If you click on the Approve option without
having the Re-run flag appear next to the appropriate report section, this means that you are approving the
report "as is" and that you consider the report ready to be moved to the permanent National Reports
Database.)

2.9

Even though you modified the record for only one SPR report section, you may still see sixteen popup
messages that describe the actions done by the Auto-Scheduler for all sixteen sections shown on this
screen. Click OK in each popup window to close it.

2.10

At the end of your work session, you can exit the AWBDS web site by clicking on the Exit buttons in each
webform or screen.

Draft – 1 Dec 2004

Procedure 1:
Approving/Rejecting a State's SPR Data-Submission
This procedure can be performed only by a State's authorized Quality Control (QC) personnel.

1.1

Log into the Automated Web-Based Data Submission (AWBDS) web site.
A Warning screen will appear onscreen.

1.2

Click on the Accept button.
The Veterinary Services National Surveillance Program Reports main screen (shown below) will
appear.

1.3

Click on the Approve Summary Data option.

12.2

Draft – 1 Dec 2004

1.4

The National Surveillance Reports Menu screen (shown below) will appear:

In the top block of this form, enter the parameters that identify the specific report whose section(s) you
want to record your approval/disapproval.
Field

Guidelines

Approver's
Oracle User
Name

User name that you use to log into the AWBDS web site.

State

Two-letter postal abbreviation for the state in which the data collection activity took place.
Click on the down arrow button to display a List of Values for this field.

Disease
Program

Code for the animal disease program whose test results are being reported on this form.
Click on the L button to display a List of Values for this field.

Species

Code for the animal species whose test results are being reported on this form.
Click on the down arrow button to display a List of Values for this field.

Report Begin
Date

Enter the first date of the time period for which the national report is being prepared.
Use one of these formats: DD-MON-YYYY or DD MON YYYY or DD-MON-YY or DD MON YY
(i.e., 01-JUL-2004 or 01 JUL 2004 or 01-JUL-04 or 01 JUL 04).

Report Run Date

Enter the last date of the time period for which the national report is being prepared.
Use one of these formats: DD-MON-YYYY or DD MON YYYY or DD-MON-YY or DD MON YY

In the bottom block of this form, click on the 3. SPR National Summary Report Data option.
An SPR Approval Forms screen will now appear:

a. Note that the report parameters (such as its Species, Begin Date, and End Date parameters) which
you specified back in Step 1.4 will apply to every report section listed on this screen.
Keep in mind, however, that you can approve/reject only those sections for which you have signoff
authority. (As an example, the State of Florida might have one QC representative, John Smith,
who has signoff authority for Sections A-L, and a second QC representative, Cindy Nelson, who
has signoff authority for Sections M, N1, and N2 only. John Smith cannot approve/reject Sections
M, N1, and N2, and Cindy Nelson cannot approve/reject Sections A-L.)
b. For each section, you must click on the down arrow button and select a value from the displayed
List of Values. The choices are described below:
Option

Meaning

Y–
Report Approved

As your State's QC representative with signoff authority, you approve the data
submitted for this report section to be complete and accurate.

N–
Report Not Approved

Choose this option for either reason below:
-- As your State's QC representative with signoff authority, you do not approve the
data submitted for this report, as you have determined some or all of the data to
contain errors/omissions.
-- You do not have signoff authority for this specific report.

R–
Re-run the Report

Enables you to run a new version of the SPR National Program Report.
This option is helpful, especially in situations where an initial Data-Submission from
a State had to be corrected and re-submitted for approval. Once the second,
corrected submission has been approved, this option can be used to generate a
new PRV-190 National Program Report whose data will be accurate.
This option is described in more detail in the following chapters of this manual:
Chapter 3 – Updating Your State's Data for a TB6-2 National Program Report
Chapter 7 – Updating Your State's Data for a PRV-190 National Program Report
Chapter 11 – Updating Your State's Data for an SPP National Program Report
