Review Package Lifecycle

Overview

TopTeam authors can send review or approval requests to stakeholders in a project. Stakeholders can provide review verdict and return the request back to the requestor.

When performing review, you can do the following:

  • View information about the artifacts included in the review
  • View changes made to artifacts using the “difference” view
  • Give your review verdict such as Approved, Needs Revision, etc. for the artifacts included in the review
  • Give feedback by adding comments
  • Pause review and return to finish it later
  • Finish review and return the request to the requestor

This article describes the complete lifecycle of a Review Package.

1. Configuring Review Step A Review Step is the first step to select when you are sending records for approval using Create Approval Request Wizard.

A Review Step is a set of certain parameters required for a review process i.e. based on which records will be sent for approval. Such as:

  • How you want reviewers to approve – on entire approval document or each record?
  • Do you want to enforce rules such as records to be in a particular state, locked, etc. before sent for review?
  • Who should be eligible to review records?
  • Is digital signature required from reviewers?
  • etc.

TopTeam provides default review steps: Formal Review Step and Informal Review Step. If you want to define a new review step, refer to the following article.
