To create and submit a record:

Procedure

On the Rational ClearQuest Web toolbar, click New Defect. To submit a non-default record type, click the arrow and select a record type from the list.

There is a separator line under the list of records types. Records that were previously opened are listed here, with the last record opened appearing at the top of the list.
