People tab description
Use the 
People tab to collect information (enter person metadata) about each person who participated in a session.
It is not necessary to exhaustively record metadata for individuals who only contribute, such as by operating equipment. However, for anyone who participates (whose voice is recorded, makes a written transcription, and so on) it is critical to collect basic background information like age, gender, level of education, location where they first learned the language, first language of both parents, and so on.
-
With the People tab selected, the People (left) pane shows a list of people by name or code. The Consent column indicates the informed consent availability.
Click a person in this pane to display data and files in the right pane.
-
The top portion of the right pane shows rows of files that have been added for the person. Columns describe those files, such as date modified, size and type.
When you click a row, the bottom portion of the pane shows tabs that are appropriate for the file type. User Interface terms - People tab and other topics describe them.
You select people as part of session metadata. If you edit the name or code of a person in the People tab, it is automatically updated in all instances where the person was selected.
