  2. The Force Close dialog box opens.

  3. Select a Force Close By user.
  4. This field defaults to the logged in user.

  5. The Date defaults to the current date.
  6. You can enter another date or click the calendar to select a date.

  7. Enter any Notes about why the defect was closed.
  8. Select a Resolution.
  9. Click OK.
