I like the Zapper tool, and have been using it to mark discrepant data. However, it appears the system does not directly interface the AID. It requires manual input from staff to enter the changes in the AID, apparently? Sometimes this works ok, but other times (workload, priorities?), I notice some observations which are clearly discrepant and marked, remain in the database for a long time.

I think it is important we all have a tool that is effective in cleaning up our data, so I hope this interface to the AID directly, could be implemented soon.

Thanks!
