Actual number of records per batch does not agree with the expected number.

I have an image with 35 records on it. The county clerk numbered them from record #68 to record #102. The indexing program expects 40 records in the batch. I don't know how it got that number. There are 40 fields per record, and with 5 records missing, I have 200 errors in my quality check. So, I am not allowed to submit this batch. what do I do? I could blank out the fields for 5 phantom records, and that would probably allow me to pass the quality check, but I don't think that is what I should do.

Hello Hal. These projects have a preset number of entries. You just need to delete the unused entries to get the batch to submit. To do that, click on the Trash Can Icon, select "all blank entries", click delete.

Fairly new, so, take my comment with a grain of salt. You can click on the trash can icon and select all blank entries before submitting the batch.

It is most helpful if you share the batch to get an answer. To do this, click on the third icon from right Batch- about batch) and copy the batch ID with your question.

The project is preset to 40 records per image. You need to delete all unused entries to get the batch to submit. That should take care of all the unused entries.

A. You wish to delete the blank entries left after you have completed the batch. These can be removed as follows :-)

To delete any extra or unused entries in the data entry area.

1. On the indexing toolbar, click the icon for Delete Entries. (the trash can)

2. In the Delete Entries pop-up window, indicate whether to delete only the current entry or all blank entries.

3. Click Delete

Do not forget to check the entries on Step 1- should this image be indexed? sometimes we forget and it counts as errors. Hope this helps you to submit your batch.
