                             Strata & Species Entry       add a "Return to (next) Plant Strata" button. Currently when done editing within a strata, the only option is to return

             In the editing of species data, after a save, replace the "Return to Releve" with two buttons; a "Return to Site Data" button that goes to the top of the page and            2
             a "Return to Species Data" button that returns the cursor to the "Plant Data" section or to the next lower Plant Strata. This would save a lot of scrolling on
     x       editing long species lists.

FIELD RESTRICTIONS
            Eliminate validation rules restricting allowing releve to be designated as "Incomplete"
                                                         Revisit?: don't require a releve number                                                         1

ERROR CHECKING
            Identify species that have not been documented in county; and in surrounding counties                                                        1

             In the editing of species data, after a save it would be useful to replace the "Return to Releve" with two buttons; a "Return to Site Data" button that goes to
             the top of the page and a "Return to Species Data" button that returns the cursor to the "Plant Data" section or to the next lower Plant Strata. This would
             save a lot of scrolling on editing long species lists.
