How do I stop tracking a bill or regulation?

All tracked measures can either be suppressed (muted) or deleted (removed) from your tracking file.

• The Suppress feature acts like a mute button for reports. Suppressed measures will still tracked and maintain your personal inputs (tags, commentary, and attachments), however will be hidden from being viewed until you want to see them again.
• When you Delete a bill or regulation from your private file, it will no longer be tracked and the item will be removed from your private file along with ALL associated tags, commentary and attachments.

FOR CUSTOMERS WITH A SINGLE TRACKING FILE:

On the results page, a Suppress button automatically displays for each tracked record:

Clicking on the Suppress button will automatically suppress the record, causing the Suppress button to change to black with a slashed eyeball and the word ‘Suppressed’.  Your assigned tags, commentary, and attachments will be preserved but this measure will no longer qualify for your alerts

 

To remove a bill or regulation from your private file:

Note: When you delete/remove a bill or regulation from your private file. it will no longer be tracked and the item will be removed from your private file along with ALL associated tags, commentary and attachments.

Click on the Tracked box to the right of the bill or regulation to expand the Tracking Center interface.

In the Tracking Center, click on the check mark next to the Master private file name.

The system will prompt you with a warning message and ask you to confirm your decision to stop tracking this bill:

Click OK.

The check mark will turn into a plus symbol and the text on the Tracking button will change to Track, indicating the item is no longer being tracked.

 

FOR CUSTOMERS WITH MULTIPLE TRACKING FILES:

To suppress a bill or regulation from your private file:

Click on the Tracked box to the right of the bill or regulation to expand the Tracking Center.

In the Tracking Center, click the checkbox to Suppress for those files where you want to hide the record. A message will display below the checkbox indicating that the measure will no longer display in your private file but will retain records of any tags or comments that you have applied to it.

When a bill is suppressed in 1 or more files the button will be Black and there will be an eyeball with a slash through it next to the file name(s) in the results card making it easy to see (without having to open the tracking center) in which file a record is suppressed.
