Respond to Queries

As an Investigator, your role in querying is usually to review and answer questions raised by a Quality Control Manager or Readers about a submission.

For the shared query mechanics in SliceVault, see Queries in SliceVault.

Where You Normally See Queries

You will usually notice queries:

  • on the repository as a visit indicator
  • on the query list page
  • inside the viewer when you open the visit in context
