Edit Entity

When you "Edit" an entity, the original information remains while a new note is created that will include any of the changes made.

This allows you to know what information you knew at the time of the note while still allowing the entity to be updated.

Example: If you look at the following edited entity, you can see that the author of the note was not aware of the scar on Edward's right arm until later in the day at 1719 hrs.

Updated Person Entity

If you return to the Entities page, Edward's record will be updated to include the latest information.

Only Owner Can Edit: Documenting how and when information is obtained about a person is essential to ensure full disclosure. For this reason, only the owner of an Entity can make changes to the original record in the notebook where it was created.
