The need for data entry is basic. Today it is definitely a fast changing and evolving world and all changes cannot be predicted or even recorded. Though technology can be predicted, human habits, customer behavior etc are changing in different patterns in different parts of the worlds. New niches are being formed. Demands are more narrowed sometimes and customized marketing is getting to be more common. How will all this information be available if it is not recorded?

The type of data and how and when it is entered will vary a lot depending on the type of business, and how all the information has to be organized.
