What is the Data Entry Test?
This is a transcription test, not a quiz. A source document sits on the screen — a CRM export, an invoice batch, a shipment manifest — and you retype it field by field into a form while a 60-second clock runs. There are three rounds, and each one uses a different kind of record, because a name and a city behave nothing like a tracking code and a weight.

A field scores only when it matches the source exactly. Nothing is close enough: a transposed digit in an account number is a wrong account number, and a test that gave partial credit for it would tell an employer the opposite of what the job needs. Your speed is then multiplied by that accuracy, so the final figure is what you can actually produce, not what you can produce if nobody checks it.
The result is in keystrokes per hour, which is the unit back-office job ads use — they ask for a KPH figure rather than words per minute because the work is fields and records rather than prose. You also get the shape of your errors: whether you left fields blank, got the format wrong, swapped characters around, dropped them, added them, or typed something different.
