Review of retained records

When you visualize a complete record, you have the option of retaining the record for future printing or to review it again later. If you have retained some records, the number will be shown on each of the previous buttons. Clicking the button will show these records in the same format as the list of the results of research. This allows their review without being charged again for an already consulted record. To review a complete record, simply click on any information of its line. The complete record will then appear in the record window. In this window, the «Retain this record» button will now read «Remove this record» , giving you the option of removing the record before printing.
