Manage Meeting Materials

SROs use the Manage Materials screen to manage the items (materials) associated with a meeting. Here, SROs add, edit, view, remove, and set the listed order of meeting materials. Changes the SRO makes here are automatically reflected on the Meeting Materials screen that is accessible to both SROs and reviewers.

NOTE: Only SROs see the Manage Materials screen, but both reviewers and SROs see that meeting's Meeting Materials screen.

The options available for the ClosedSRO on the Manage Materials screen are:

Sample Manage Materials screen

  • Change Order button -  Opens the Order List of Meeting Materials screen to re-sequence items by their row number.
  • Import from Another Meeting button -  Searches for an item from another meeting's materials and add to this meeting's materials.
