Auditing a Tenement List
LandTracker allows you to audit your spreadsheets against the data service. See Update from LandTrack Data Service.
- Open Due Diligence screen.
-
Upload the spreadsheet that contains the tenement set you wish to audit. See Manage Tenement Sets.
Important: The fields of Tenement ID Column, Jurisdiction Column, and Default must be in upper case for the audit to function.
-
Click Edit Column Map.
A window displays columns to be mapped.
Note: Columns displayed are defined as follows:
- ColNo—Number associated with spreadsheet column.
- Column—Letter associated with spreadsheet column.
- Header—Header in your spreadsheet.
- MapTo—LandTracker data type.
- Match Order—When multiple columns exist for the same data, you can choose the priority of the columns to retrieve the match.
- Conversion—Convert data to a special format such as date or money.
- Options—Designed to specify select conversions to perform, not yet implemented.
Note: They may be empty; however, data may also be stored from a previous search. be sure to update the list to ensure you are using the current data.
-
Click Load Column List.
The data from your spreadsheet displays in the columns.
Note: LandTracker automatically maps columns with recognisable headers to the MapTo column. If it is empty or incorrectly mapped, you can select a new destination from the menu.
-
Update the MapTo column by selecting an option from the menu, if required.
-
To add a column without losing your mapped columns:
-
Add the column at the end of your spreadsheet and save.
-
Click Update List.
The screen adds the column to the end of the column map.
Note: The new column must be at the end of your spreadsheet. If you add a column to the middle of your spreadsheet the update still adds the column at the end of the list and then requires you to re-map.

Click OK.
-
In the Due Diligence screen, click Load Tenement List.
The Auditing area activates, with Audit Only pre-selected. The Results area displays the number of tenements located.

In the Auditing area, select any combination of the following:
- Audit Only—When selected it creates an audit sheet with results but doesn't change the original sheet cells. Deselecting it updates differences directly on the original sheet.
- Append Date to Audit Sheet—Includes today’s date in the worksheet name.
-

Note: Audit Only must be deselected for Remove Missing Tenements audit to function.
-
Click Audit Spreadsheet.
A workbook opens with results of selected audit criteria.
When requested, a separate sheet is created for the audit results. The results are colour-coded in the following manner:
- Green—No changes made.
- Yellow—Different value to what is in the database. The databases value is inserted into the cell while the original value is placed into a cell comment.
Red—Indicates the row does not match the tenement ID. If duplicate tenement ID's are found, the second and subsequent instances are marked in red.
Note: If checking a spreadsheet for duplicate tenement IDs, not that they may be in multiple formats that Excel may not identify as the same (example: M25/27. M 26/27, M26/027).
- Orange—Indicates values have been inserted from the database into a cell that was previously empty.
- Uncoloured—Indicates they have not been audited because they were not mapped to database fields or the tenement ID is unrecognisable.
