When the Finish and Complete option is selected, the system will check for required fields, valid values, and conflicts in logic. When an error is detected, the user will be notified of the error in a box on the screen. Error messages will display in blueand are listed in the same order as the fields in each tab. All error messages must be cleared by making the appropriate correction to the data. Required fields cannot be left blank and will generate an error message. All required field errors must be cleared before logic error messages can be displayed. If there are errors, correct all errors listed and select the Finish and Complete button again. Continue this process until all errors have been corrected and the case is error free. In some cases, clearing one error may create a different error. It may take a few cycles to clear all errors. Tips for clearing the error are included with the error message. (see next slide)
