Introduction
Once a resolution has been agreed, it will turn into an Order and appear at the back of a Marshalled List.
How to convert a resolution into an Order
Place cursor in the selected resolution
Right-click and select 'Convert to order'
The resolution will be removed from the list and a new order will be inserted at the end of the amendment list (before the Withdrawn Amendment section)
Hints and tips
Resolutions are used for Programme Motions
You should record the outcome against a resolution before converting it into an Order as that means you can copy the resolution and paste it into the Proceedings and it will have the 'proposer' element correctly inserted at the top of the resolution
If you converted a resolution by mistake, use 'undo' to revert it back into a resolution
Converting the resolution will additionally strip out the introductory paragraph and ending paragraph of text around the programme motion
Orders cannot be inserted from the CCA, you need to create a resolution first and use 'Convert to Order'
You can update the 'proposer' of a resolution by clicking on the blue placeholder which will open an 'Update proposer' dialogue box allowing you to select from a list of Commons Members.
You can change the order of motions/resolutions or orders in the list by using 'drag & drop' in the Structure view
