Annotation of Changes<br />

E-Notebook may be configured so that you can<br />

annotate the changes you make to data in<br />

collections. There are two possibilities for<br />

providing annotation. They are:<br />

• Required Annotation – each time you save<br />

the collection, you must provide a reason for<br />

the changes you made. You must also provide<br />

a reason for the changes if autosave has<br />

occurred.<br />

• Optional Annotation – you may provide a<br />

reason for the changes is you wish, but it is not<br />

required.<br />

Whether annotation is required or optional<br />

depends upon 1) the type of collection and 2) its<br />

state. For example, an Experiment or Page may be<br />

configured such that it has three states: Open,<br />

Closed, and Reopened.<br />

• Open – the Open state may have optional<br />

annotation, so that you may provide a reason<br />

for a change if you wish.<br />

• Closed – the Closed state may be read-only. It<br />

may not be possible to edit the collection while<br />

it is in this state.<br />

• Reopened – the Reopened state may permit<br />

changes, but only if they are annotated each<br />

time the collection is saved.<br />

In some configurations, annotation may be<br />

required when you perform a collection transition.<br />

For example, it may be necessary to provide a<br />

reason for moving a collection to the Reopened<br />

state.<br />

Providing Required Annotation<br />

With required annotation, you must provide a<br />

reason for your changes each time you save the<br />

collection or an autosave occurs. You must provide<br />

the reason before making any further changes. The<br />

dialog lists the changes you made to the collection<br />

since the last time the collection was saved.<br />

1. Click the changes icon .<br />

The annotation dialog appears:<br />

2. Either click one of the Predefined Annotations<br />

to select it, or type another annotation into the<br />

bottom box.<br />

The Save button is enabled.<br />

3. Click the Save button.<br />
