Uncompleted work

Sometimes I am not able to finish a batch before I have to stop indexing (if it's still called that). Is there a way I can save my work so I can finish it when I get back to it? I'm always afraid that uncompleted work isn't going to get finished.

Also, I type same names in a batch at least 5 times. It gets very old and really needs to be dealt with.

    There is currently no way to save and come back to where you were. But when you back out of a "batch" of names, the unfinished ones go back into the pool of names. This same thing happens when you click "Unsure." All the names will get done.

    When you say you type the same names in a batch at least 5 times, do you mean the name appears multiple times? Or that you are being presented the same name in the exact same position multiple times?

    If it's the first, it's expected that some documents will have the name several times in the document. And those names will all be indexed.

    If it's the second, this is a known issue and is being worked on.

    Thanks for your questions and feedback!
