MBO wants to help you organize every point you plot. It is likely when you plot a point you'll be creating a new dataset, but you could simply add that location to an existing dataset. When choosing to Create a new dataset simply choose New and name that dataset. Don't forget to name your location too. Your newly named dataset will now be listed as a layer in Manage Map &amo; Data.
