Edit an existing archival institution record


1. Navigate to the archival institution you want to edit.

  • For more information on navigation in ICA-AtoM, see in this manual: Access content.


2. Switch from view mode to edit mode by clicking the Record title bar or Edit button; this takes you to the record's Edit screen. On loading, the Edit screen displays the record with all areas of description closed; click on an area to access the fields grouped under it.


3. Add / revise data as required.

  • See Data entry pages (UM-3.3.4 - UM-3.3.8) for detailed explanations and notes on fields.


4. To discard all changes, click the Cancel button in the Button block; ICA-AtoM returns you to view mode (View screen), with no changes saved.


5. To save changes, click the Save button in the Button block; ICA-AtoM commits the changes and re-loads the page.

  • Note that re-loading the page causes all areas of description to close; this behaviour will be revised in a future release (post-1.0 beta) of ICA-AtoM (e.g. page will stay open as it was before save).
