Administrators can access unit state dataset parameters to control some unit level features in My Datasets > Units > Jurisdictions > Edit > Unit State Dataset Parameters. Administrators use unit state dataset parameters to change how data is treated or represented within a jurisdiction for a unit/dataset. Unit State Dataset Parameters let you add parameters and then additional functionality is available in the system.

 

Pre-established unit dataset parameters can be added, modified, or deleted. When adding or modifying parameters, use care, as they can potentially change calculations across all the units in a dataset. Parameters are pre-defined and are case-sensitive. The Key Type and Value have specific designations for each parameter. Deleting parameters is not recommended because they may be required for the system to function properly. It is recommended that you de-activate a parameter, rather than deleting it.

 

To import a new unit state dataset parameter, complete the appropriate fields on the #USDSP# USDS Params sheet in the Import Numbers template. For more information on importing, refer to the Importing Templates documentation.
