Adding or Editing Records

If you have the appropriate rights, you can add records:

1. Select a content type from the Add menu.

2. Fill in the fields (see below), then click Save.

You may also be able to edit records:

1. Search or browse for records.

2. Check the box next to one item on the Search Results page.

3. Select Edit from the Act on Content toolbar.

4. Use the Edit Screen to make changes, then click Save.

Usually, if you can edit records, you also can copy records:

1. Search or browse for records.

2. Click a link to go to the Detail Screen for the record you want to copy.

3. Select Copy from the Act on Content toolbar.

4. If you meant to click Copy, click OK on the confirmation message that appears.

   The copy is created immediately, and opened in the Edit Screen with "[COPY]" after the screen title as a reminder.

5. Use the Edit Screen to make changes to the copied record, then click Save.

   Note that clicking Cancel on the Edit Screen will not delete the copied record; it displays the Detail Screen for the copy. If you change your mind after selecting Copy and clicking OK on the confirmation message, you can click Cancel on the Edit Screen, then select Delete on the Detail Screen. This will delete the copy, not the original record.
