This section describes how to add, edit, and delete content in ICA-AtoM:

The procedures all assume that you are authenticated and that your user account has sufficient access privileges for the actions described.

See user roles for more information on the different user roles in ICA-AtoM. Note that in a multi-repository system, a user's edit and delete access may be limited to records originating from his or her own institution.

There is no requirement to create records in any particular order. But when an institution or network installs ICA-AtoM application, the first record(s) that should be created are always the archival institution records for all the repositories that will contribute descriptions to the system. These institutions will then appear in the drop-down list in the "Repository" field when creating archival descriptions.
