How to Submit an Observation

How to submit an observation?

Once the required fields have been filled in (ref internal procedures for what is required to fill in before submitting) you will be able to submit the observation.  

1. Locate and double click the Observation you wish to submit. They can be found one of these locations
   1. [My place] à [Overview] à “Observation” section (click heading)
   2. [Observation Overview] à Click “Draft” column à Locate the draft in list.
2. Click the [Submit] button  

How to submit an observation anonymously?

It is possible to submit an observation anonymously, with no reference to the submitting user. This option is available for users with the user right to submit anonymously. To submit anonymously the same procedure as described above is followed, but instead of clicking [Submit] the [Submit anonymously] button is used. When this option is used you will not find the observation under your personal dashboard as the connection to your user has been severed. Any “Change log” entries from before submittal made anonymous also.  

Please note: If you save an Observation as a Draft, prior to submitting it anonymously, it is possible that some users have seen the draft observation with your name on it, as some users may have access to read and see all draft observations. To avoid this do not save it as a draft prior to submittal.
