The DCN multimedia Voting Preparation and Management software module facilitates the preparation and management of one or more voting rounds in the Meeting Application of the DCN multimedia System Software.

Voting preparation
The ‘Voting preparation’ feature enables a secretary or clerk to prepare and add one or more voting rounds to a meeting. Voting rounds can be prepared immediately and/or updated at a later date. A voting round can be easily recalled or deleted from a meeting if it is no longer required. During the preparation of a voting round the secretary or clerk can configure parameters such as:

• Voting reference number
• Voting subject
• Description of voting round
• Sequence of voting rounds (i.e. the order in which voting rounds will be used during a meeting)
• The homepage for the built-in browser
• Voting answer sets that can be changed to suit the country or region. Various answer sets can be selected, for example, ‘Yes’, ‘No’ or ‘For’, ‘Against’, ‘Abstain’, ‘DNPV’
• How the interim results are displayed
