Response from Cole Egan of Castor

Hi Karen - thank you for the positive review! I am happy to hear that you find the system easy to navigate - that is our goal!

Outstanding queries can be found in the Monitoring Tab (Queries subtab) - from here, you can filter results to display only a list of open/unresolved queries. By clicking on the 'eye' icon next to each individual query, you will be automatically navigated to the query in question within the form. Hope that helps! Our HelpDesk also includes great information related to monitoring and queries.
