I opened a batch. Problem: For whatever (dumb) reason......I started indexing on the second page instead of the first page. Should I start over?

    @gaylaleeshupe1 it's best for the sake of the Reviewer's being able to easily navigate your work to index in the recommended "top to bottom, left to right" order. But it's technically not "wrong" to do otherwise (if the pages are independent of each other). The FS search engine doesn't care. If you accidentally index a second page first, complete that page and then do the first page. The Reviewer should figure it out and review your work after a moment's pause to get oriented. If you hop back and forth unpredictably, then your Reviewer may have a fit.

    @gaylaleeshupe1 could you send the batch number/code at the top of the page [xxxx-xx] so that we can see what you're working on?
