I finished indexing https://www.familysearch.org/indexing/batch/def64335-3907-46a3-a27a-7f3b50eecb99. It says it will have 250 names but it has just 108. How can I finish and submit this batch? Thanks.

    You'll need to delete the blank, unused entries.

    Click on the trash can icon that is on the toolbar.

    FireShot Capture 006 - Indexing Tool — FamilySearch.org - www.familysearch.org.png

    This dialog box appears.

    FireShot Capture 007 - Indexing Tool — FamilySearch.org - www.familysearch.org.png

    The default voice is "The current entry (Entry X)." That's fine if you want to delete a few entries, but for this amount of entries, you'll select "All blank entries," then click Delete. You should be left with the number indexed. Keep in mind that if there is one character in one field, that entry will not be deleted. (Ex: entry 163 of 200 has the letter "A" in the Prefix field). You'll have to delete or Ctrl+B that field, then repeat the trashcan/pop up box and click Delete.

    See the second bullet point of the "Number of Entries per Image" page of the General Indexing Guidelines.
