Manage Deposits

To start the depositing process click New Item. This will add a fresh, empty record to your workspace and allow you to start editing it. To use the import function, select the source from the "Import from" drop-down menu and then click Import. See How do I import items into ORO? in the FAQs for more information.

If there are items in your workspace that you have begun work on in the past but not yet deposited, these will be shown in yellow. The icons to the right of these items allow you to view an item in detail, edit it, destroy it, or deposit it.
