    • Note: If more than one pick for a Top exists, it will be assigned an observation number based on its depth, increasing from shallowest to deepest. If a new Top pick is added the observation numbers will be reassigned accordingly

  2. From this tab you can import, export, create, edit, or delete the Top data.
