The documents tab within a participant record can act as a virtual filing cabinet for many types of electronic documents related to a participant.

Click the People tab in your lefthand navigation menu.
 
 
Open the List of Participants
 

Locate the participant in your List of Participants

There are several tools to navigate your list of participants.

You can type a whole or partial name into the search bar. The list will filter down as you type to match your search criteria. 
 
You can scroll down the list to find the name. By default, 25 participant records will appear on one page. At the bottom right, use the menu to change how many participant records are displayed per page, and use the arrows to navigate through different sections.
