[[Archival description]] records are structured into [[Information area|information areas]] based on the ICA's ''General International Standard Archival Description'' ([[RS-1|ISAD(G)]]). This section describes how to create, edit and delete [[Archival description|archival descriptions]]. The ''Data entry'' pages gives detailed notes and explanations on every [[Field|field]] included on the [[Edit screen|edit screen]]; where there is a one-to-one correspondence between an ISAD(G) [[Data element|data element]] and an ICA-AtoM [[Field|field]], the note typically just gives the ISAD(G) rule verbatim.
