Saving or Discarding Your Work

Your changes to an issue are not saved until you click the Save GUID-5B4AC0CB-A608-4F06-A46F-3AB922563635-low.png or Save and Close GUID-ACF9DE91-EAC5-48CD-AD09-D06CA6C97EDD-low.png button in the tab's toolbar. When you save an issue record, the issue record is stored in the depot's issue database within the repository. For new issues, AccuWork assigns the next available integer issue number to the new issue record when you save your work. This number cannot be modified.

A transaction of type dispatch records the modification to the issue record. You can see the record of changes to a record on the Issue History tab.

If you attempt to close the Issue Edit form without saving, you are prompted to save your changes.

If you do not want to save your work, click Close.

You are also prompted to save if you attempt to navigate away from a changed issue. See Navigating Among Issues.
