The status of an approval denotes the current phase of the review cycle for a given round of review. The status of an Approval can be viewed in the Details column of both the Approvals dashboard and within the associated Tracker project.
Pending Routing
Approvals that are Pending Routing cannot yet be signed off on by the review team. The Coordinator is responsible for ensuring that the review team and routing file are correct before advancing to the next status.
Active
Approvals that are Active can now be reviewed by the review team.
Pending Completion
If the Coordinator and Initiator are two different users, the status of the Approval will update to Pending Completion when the final reviewer signs off on the file.
This will notify the coordinator that a final review and sign off is required to complete the round.
Complete
If the Coordinator and Initiator are the same user (or if the Coordinator leaves a final review on a routing that is Pending Completion), the round status will update to Complete. This signifies that all users have completed their review for this review cycle.
Archived
The Archived status is set by the Initiator when review of this item is complete and no further rounds of review are required, typically at the completion of the associated project.
