Footnotes

Many fields require additional information in the form of a footnote, also known as an Explanation of Response.

You can apply footnotes when entering the information initially.

To apply footnotes after entering and saving the transaction, use the Edit button. See Manage Footnotes to create or edit a footnote.

Apply Footnotes

To apply a footnote to a form:

  1. To apply a footnote while entering the initial transaction, put the cursor in the field that requires a footnote and select the Footnote button located above the table.
    • If you have already saved the transaction, highlight the row requiring the footnote, select Edit, then select the field that requires a footnote, and click Footnote
  2. The Footnote window displays with the list of previously entered footnotes. The title at the top of the footnote window is the name of the footnote that is already selected. Choose a footnote for the field and click Apply. You can apply as many footnotes as needed for each field
  3. Click Close at the bottom of the window to save the footnote to the field
  4. Repeat these steps for any remaining fields that require footnotes
