I entered all of the required activity information into the form, but I don’t see it on the Activities page now. Where did it go?

By default, the Activities page of PARS displays “open” activities that occur during the current Reporting Year.  If you enter all required activity information, but no longer see the activity listed in the default view, first make sure that the “Reporting Year” is set to the appropriate year for the activity, and then click on the “closed” tab on the Activities page.  Activities that contain all required information are considered “closed.”
