- Single-Select dropdown fields – For these fields, users can copy/paste allowable values (note they must match the selection option exactly), select an option from the list of pre-set choices in the dropdown box, and/or enter the valid selection in the cell or in the formula bar – e.g., Select Individual’s Training or Awardee Category.

General Instructions: - Previously reported training programs (i.e., prior records) will be auto-populated and displayed at the top of the page. Gray cells are not editable. If new rows are added in the IND-GEN form, the Record Status, City, and State columns remain non-editable and empty (see below for additional details).
- To enter a new record, users should start on the next blank row, select the ‘Type of Training Program’, and enter the ‘Trainee Unique ID’. While the Record Status will be new, that column is not editable and will remain empty. Once the template is uploaded and processed, the ‘New Record’ status will be displayed in EHB.

Copying and Pasting Data: - Users can copy and paste data from another source/file into Data Entry, Single-Select Dropdown, and Multi-Select Dropdown fields.

Multi-Selecting and Unselecting Pre-Set Options: - For the multi-select fields, users can select one or more pre-set options in the dropdown list. Users will have to select the options one at a time. However, the pre-set options will be concatenated in the field.
- To unselect one or more pre-set options, users can click on the pre-set option(s) a second time. This will remove the option from the field.
Validations: - Validations are embedded within the Excel template.
- Validations will fire:
- When a required field is missing,
- When there is a conditional validation on two or more columns,
- When a pre-set selection option cannot be combined with other pre-set options (specifically for multi-select fields), and
- When the value of the cell is changed (i.e., a different selection value is selected, the data is deleted, or the text field does not match the data type).
- When a validation fires, the user can correct the field or leave it as is. Users can still upload the template into EHB and fix any remaining validation errors in EHB as long as data has been selected/entered in Column 1 and Column 2.
