A signer presents five loan documents to a notary at the same signing appointment, all part of the same transaction, each requiring an acknowledgment. How should the notary record these in the sequential journal?

Each document must be recorded on a separate line item — one line per document is always required.

The notary must attach photocopies of all five documents to the journal in lieu of separate entries.

Multiple documents from the same transaction may be recorded on one line item in the journal.

Only the most important document needs to be recorded; the others can be grouped under 'miscellaneous.'
