How do I return to a batch that I was working on but did not finish. I wanted to go back one name to verify the info but when I his the back key it took me out of the batch. Will someone else be able to finish the batch?

    If you just went out of the bath it should still be on your home page in the My Batches section and you should be able to reopen it and continue the work.

    Hi, Bill. As Larry mentioned, you might have hit the “fat” back arrow (first icon), which is meant to take you back to the My Batches page where that batch should be, ready for you to reopen if you wish.

    To go back to the previous entry you need to use one of the little back arrows within the data entry form/panel. Click it once to go back by one entry. Likewise, you can go forward one or more entries the same way.

    At the top (in Form Entry mode you’ll see:

    And at the bottom

    To navigate to any particular entry, type the number of that entry in the box where the 3 is at the top of the entry form/panel and click return/enter. In the above situation, if you substitute 1 for the 3 and hit return/enter you'll go to the first entry. If you substitute 42 and hit return/enter you'll be taken to the last entry.
