A User-Centered Upload Workflow for the BEXIS 2 Platform
New upload process
Select File
Sheet Structure
Select Areas
Verification
Summary
New Dataset
➔ Upload / select the data fle
➔ Table orientation: column / row / matrix
➔ Data is displayed, marking header & data area
➔ Defne Variables (unit and datatype)
➔ Summarized information from previous steps
➔ Creation of dataset and redirecting to meta data
