Before you start
Start from the current portfolio state and treat the article as an operating checklist. If a required input is missing, record that gap instead of inventing precision.
Detailed steps
Open reviewed or resolved items
Start from the screen named in the step and confirm the portfolio in the top bar before you change anything. If the wrong portfolio is selected, switch portfolios first.
Select the item that needs renewed attention
Pick the option that matches the real-world record you are adding or reviewing. If two options look similar, use the one that matches the source document, not the one that makes totals look cleaner.
Choose reopen and add context
