How to approve and commit the review
When your team has completed the review, they should inform the approver via your internal process. The approver should then evaluate whether the review has been completed satisfactorily and they accept the decisions that have been made.
If the approver deems the review to be complete, they can approve it and commit the review which will 'lock in' the decisions made.
Approval is done on the Review page by selecting the review and clicking Approve from the Actions menu. This will open the Approve Review dialog where the approver is required to provide a confirmation statement.
Once this has been filled in, click Save and Close.
Important - Once a review has been committed, no additional modifications or actions can be taken. Therefore, the approver should ensure that they are completely satisfied with the review before proceeding.
The Review page will update and the review should be assigned a status of Updating.
Once the status changes to Committed, the review manifest will be available for download.
Review Expiry
Reviews have an expiry date which is 14 days after approval. After this period has elapsed, the review will be deleted so it is important that the review manifest is exported before then. Approvers will be sent a reminder email 3 days prior to the expiration date.
Note - Reviews created before December 9th 2024 and have an Open or
In-progress status will also be subject to the expiration and deletion policy on approval. However, reviews that have been committed prior to this date, will not be subject to automatic deletion.
