How to quote secondary source in Mendeley? Do we have to insert ( qtd. In or cited in) manually or is there a proper way?

[@alivahedi8529]

Thank you for your great tutorial. I have a word document using refworks. I need to transfer to Zotero. I exported my articles to Zotero, but my previous citations created by refworks are not supported. What can I do?
