When you click on new, you can add the abstract data. See picture below:

The following elements are given in the ‘New Abstract Data’ screen:

• ‘Abstract no.’:
  The abstract number (Abstract no.) is the sequence number allotted to the abstract to determine its position in the list given in the ‘List Abstracts’ screen. This number is automatically generated by Eventure.
• ‘Status’:
  This indicates the status level that the abstract has during its handling.
• ‘Abstract Code’:
  This is an alternative code which can be given to an abstract, enabling the abstracts to be sorted according to a particular method, for example. 
• Tip:
  When you want to publish a proceedings of the congress, for example, you can allot codes which are related to the presentation type. You could give the first abstract of the ‘Oral Presentations’ the code O-001 and the code P-001 for the abstract of a ‘Poster Presentation’, for example. You can then sort the abstracts in presentation type groups according to these codes while making up the proceedings. It is important to remember that the sort takes into account the number of characters in the code. The codes with the least number of characters are always first in the list. E.g. the code Z1 is always before the code A01, because Z1 only has two characters and A01 has three. After number of characters have been taken into account, the sort is done alphabetically.
