# How to edit an incorrect job selected in the Console?

## If the wrong job was selected on the Console, you can point the recorded job span at the correct order with the Edits Tool.

You need an **Administrator** or **Analytics User with Editor** role to use the Edits Tool.

#### **Step 1 — Open the Events Chart and turn on the Edits Tool**

Press the Edits Tool button in the top right corner. The period editor opens along the bottom of the chart.

The Events Chart shows up to 14 days at a time. If the job you are after is older than the window on screen, move the date range back before going looking for it.

#### **Step 2 — Select the job span**

#### **Step 3 — Press Update**

#### **Step 4 — Press the pencil icon beside the order details**

#### **Step 5 — Select the correct job and press OK**

#### **Step 6 — Turn the Edits Tool off**

Press the Edits Tool button again to leave edit mode.

#### **Test it**

Reopen the job span and check it now carries the correct order. The counts recorded against that span move with it, so product-level reports pick the change up from here.

Every edit is recorded in the **Edit Log** against the span, with the login that made it and the time it was made.

#### **Related corrections on the same span**

The same **Update** panel is also where you fix a job's **Rated Speed** after the event, which is the fix when a finished job's performance figures look wrong for the product that ran.
