Maintaining Region Information

A region is a division of territory within a state or district marked off for administrative purposes.

When you click the Regions link in the Reference Data component, the system takes you to the Region Overview component where you can add, change and delete information contained in reference region rows. Type criteria in the Quick Find search box to locate the region row you want to maintain, or click Show first 10.

The system displays a list of rows for all the regions in the system that match your search criteria. Each row contains an Actions button, the number of counties in the region, and current values for the following fields:

You can change the Obsolete Date in the rolling list or click the Ref Region Name link to change additional information.

To add a new reference region to the system, select Add from the Actions menu on the component header.

To delete a reference region, select Delete from the Actions menu on the region's row.

When you have finished maintaining regions, click the Save button to apply your changes to the system (including deleted information). The system displays a message to confirm that your changes were saved in the database.
