“To make it easier for you to enter cases, ROVER provides a variety of features that are used consistently throughout the application.  These features include:”
“Required information:  Some information is required before you can continue to another field or process a transaction.”
“Protected information:  Information that you are not allowed to modify appears in gray text.”
“Auto-populated information:  ROVER automatically populates some fields based on data you entered or selected in a previous field.”
Screen changes to a new birth record.
“ROVER uses many messages to help guide you through your data entry.  These messages may appear at the top of a page or as a separate window.  Here are some examples:”
Screen displays a dialogue box that reads “Child’s last name cannot be left blank.  If Child’s last name is not known, enter unknown.”  There is an OK button in the dialogue box. 
“Some fields are required.  You must enter this information before you can move to another field or save a case.  If you try to skip these fields, messages like this one will alert you to the problem.”
Screen displays a dialogue box that reads “Child Birth Time cannon be left blank.  If the time is unknown, enter 9999.  If left blank, the record will be saved as unfinished.  Click OK to continue to the next field, click CANCEL if you would like to correct your entry.”  There is an OK button and a CANCEL button in the dialogue box. 
“Some fields can be skipped, but must eventually be answered before you can save a case as finished.  Messages like this one will alert you to the problem and provide options for dealing with it.”
“Tab Order:  As you enter information on any page, your cursor will move through the fields in a predetermined order.  This is called the tab order.  You should use your Tab key to move forward through the fields and Shift + Tab to move backward.  Using your Tab key is the recommended method of moving from field to field.  This method allows for faster data entry than using a mouse to move the cursor.”
“Page Navigation:  Pages for ROVER are listed from left to right and top to bottom in a bar below the menu bar.”

“You can open a page by clicking the page's name (blue tab) at the top of the form or by clicking the Next button to move forward through the pages or the Previous button to move back a page.”
“Your cursor changes to a hand whenever it is over a link.”
“You will be required to correct certain types of errors before you can continue.”
“You will be reminded to enter information required for saving a complete case and what to enter if an actual value is unknown.”
“The selections you make in drop-down lists may determine what appears in subsequent drop-down lists.”

Your session will expire in 21 seconds,” followed by a Return to Menu button and a Return to Record button.  The bottom box reads “record is expired.  Since the document you are working on may be requested by another party, you are allowed to keep the document for a given amount of time with no activity.”  
“If you are not actively entering information or navigating the menu for an extended period, your session may be terminated.  This feature is included for extra security should your work be interrupted and you have not logged out of the system.  If you have an open case, you will be notified before ROVER closes to give you the opportunity to continue work.”
“If you notice the above message and want to continue working, click Return to Record.  If you miss this opportunity, ROVER will close the record automatically and you will see the message below.  You must log back in to ROVER to resume work in the system.”
