The entry requires the newly weds parents names but they do not appear on the document. Is there a way to submit the information that is available or must the whole entry be scrapped for lack of some information?

    Hi Wood, Aaron Daniel,

    If you check the field information (purple ?) I assume it will tell you to mark the field blank before you submit.

    For a more accurate answer you would need to share the batch information. Go to help at the top of the page and you will find share batch. click on that and follow the instructions.


    Hope this helps
