Data Options Overview

Learning Outcome

On successful completion of this lesson, students will understand how to access the data module and it’s function.

Lesson

The Data Module is used to define all ‘static’ data in EVE – i.e. data that you will need to set up once and then only change infrequently thereafter – for example,  the types of courses you teach, the payment methods you accept, etc. Some data has been preloaded into the database. Other data, that is specific to your store, will need to be added.

Accessing the Data Module

  1. From EVE’s main screen click on ‘Data’.
