In the overview you can see which points you have added a decision on. This is indicated by the text "Decision" followed by a blue exclamation mark.

When you release the decisions, an email will be sent to the meeting participants stating that a report is available in FirstAgenda Prepare. Here you have the opportunity to add an overall comment, as well as a comment next to each decision point that is sent in the notification email. Meeting participants can read the comments on the front page of the meeting, as well as see an overview of which points decisions have been added to.

Important: As long as you have not released, your meeting participants will not be able to see your decisions. Other agenda collectors who are members of the committee can see decisions and make changes in them.

It is not possible to add a resolution to non-content items. See how to add content to points here.

You can also still create your decision or minutes inside the meeting creation itself. Read more about how to create an alternative minutes here.
