• Under Recovery/Payment use the radio buttons  to choose whether the matter record is a recovery or a payment, then type an amount into the "Of" text box. Press Tab on your keyboard or anywhere outside of the box to save the amount (a successful save is indicated by the  icon). Click the colored switch to indicate that the record is an equitable relief , or not . Select an option from the "Relief Sought" drop-down list.

If any matter records have been linked to this selected matter, they show up under "Also Close Linked Records".

Linked records that are subordinate to the currently opened matter record show up under "Master Of", and can be removed from this page.

Linked records that are considered "Master" to the currently opened matter record need to be deleted in the Linked Records section.

Close a Matter Record

1. From within a matter record, select Edit/Close on the Matter Navigation Bar, then click Close/Status Actions.
2. Under Disposition, select "Closed" from the "Matter Status" drop-down list.
3. Use the calendar  icon to select the date the matter was closed.
4. Click Set Record Status.

Note: It is important for users to manually select the matter's status that will show once the close date passes. For example, if the status is left as open when the date closed date passes, the matter will have a status of open even though the matter will technically be closed.
