Removing a warning marker from an inline amendment

Introduction

Warning markers appear against inline amendments when they have been updated in traditional format e.g. to change the proposer/supporter information, update the instruction or quoted structure or add an explanatory statement.  Because the traditional amendment is not backwards synchronised with the inline amendment, a warning marker is set against the inline amendment in the inline document to prevent you or others from unwittingly overwriting the changes made to the traditional amendment.  It is possible to manually remove a warning marker from an inline amendment if you did want to overwrite the changes in the traditional format.

How to remove a marker from an inline amendment

1. Open up the Inline Amendments right-hand panel

2. Find the amendment with the warning and click on the warning marker

3. Confirm the warning message that pops up

• Inline amendments will be read-only if they have a warning marker set against them

• Warning markers are set against amendments whenever they have been updated in traditional form

• Changing the status of an amendment e.g. from 'Draft' to 'On hold' or from 'Draft' to 'Submitted' will not set a warning marker, but it is still not possible to update an amendment that isn't in 'Draft' state.
