I am working on Virginia death records. How do I save my work if I have to leave my computer mid batch?

I am thinking there has to be a save icon somewhere....but i am not finding it....

Sheepsihly,

Colleen

    The work is automatically being saved. You can just click on that 1st arrow in the tool bar to return to web indexing or you can even log out of the program from the image screen.

    I entered a huge amount of information which does not seem to have saved automatically. How can I ensure info is saved?

    Hi @carolglasgow .

    Look at the top edge of your indexing screen just below the toolbar and you’ll see when it was last saved, and it should save your work upon using the large back-arrow to go back to the Web Indexing page. I wish we could do a manual save like we could in the past (Ctrl+S). If you believe it is not doing that last auto save upon returning to the WI page, try to document it with screen shots and report it to support.
