Adding a new finding to a group is almost identical to editing a finding. The only difference is that you must first select the institution and group to which you want to add the findings; when editing a group, you've already made those two selections.
1. Click Groups > Add Findings. The Add Findings window opens.
2. Select the Institution.
3. Select the Group.
NOTE: Field names followed by an asterisk (*) are required. |
