What if under Quick Name Review it misses a name altogether

Example two individuals listed one after another.

First individual: Annie Chapman

Second Individual: Olive Sloane

The only names showing to verify are Annie and then the search jumps straight to Sloane. Do we edit and add in the missing surname for Annie and the missing first name of Olive.

    I've run into this a few times. I'd see that the highlight only covers the first name of an entire name, but that the prompt shows the entire name, or vice versa.

    I don't see a real answer to that here that clarifies it for me, so I'd like to see more guidance:

    In Quick Name Review you just review the one highlighted name. We can't add name fields or highlights. Whole names are reviewed in Full Name Review. Those two full names will be taken care of in Full Name Review. That's where we can add highlights and fields.

    "In Quick Name Review you just review the one highlighted name. "

    That's where sometimes the highlight is confusing, as it'll be part of the name, or part of another name, and so forth.

    In quick name review they're all parts of different names. The whole names will be taken care of in Full Name Review.

    In QNR you click Match or Edit for one word/name. Ex. the word George would be clicked as Match when spelled correctly and the word Jones would be clicked Match. In QNR no distinction is made between Given Names and Surnames
