Enter Mine Source and Stockpile Survey Data Using a Survey Editor

A survey editor must already be set up for the mine sources or stockpiles. See Set up a Survey Editor. The settings on the Survey Editor Configuration screen affect the survey in the following manner:

• The contributor details only display if Show Contributors Section is checked and contributors have been specified in the Contributors field group.
• The analyte details only display if Show Analytes Section is checked and analytes have been specified in the Analytes field group.
• If Edit Contributor As Tonnage is unchecked, ensure that the total percentage of all contributors is 100%.
• If Edit Contributor As Tonnage is checked, ensure that the sum of the tonnage for each contributor adds up to the total tonnage.

Security Note: You need the Allow stockpile survey maintenance security right in the Stockpiles domain security rights group for this activity.

      Default: Yield defined for the contributor in the contributor group at the date on or preceding the survey date.

      Only applicable if the contributor group has been configured to Calculate Yield Based Contributors.

8. To update quality, enter the Result of each analyte, for each mine source or stockpile.
