What to do when a correct date is not accepted on Indexing?

Karolina Mesen

I have been working on this batch that is obviously from 1630 but the quality check says that I must enter a date between 1632 and 2021.

Peru, Cajamarca, Registros Parroquiales 1782-2005[M3JQ-4TD]

What should I do in this case?

Usually when you get these types of QC pop-ups it means that they aren't indexing the records in that era. However, the project instructions don't have any indication that records prior to 1632 are not being indexed. Thus, I would mark the field blank and submit the batch.

You might want to hold onto the batch until someone else opines since I don't work on this project or for FamilySearch.

Best wishes and Happy Indexing!
