Why Don't Consultants' Items Turn Black After Items Have Been Reviewed?

When logged into Submittal Exchange as a Consultant, select your project and go to the appropriate log. Submittal items will remain red even after you have reviewed them.

Reasons the item remain red:

  1. It allows the Consultant to re-review a document if necessary prior to the final review.
  2. It allows multiple consultant reviews of a file. One Consultant can review the file while another Consultant can select the same red line item to add additional reviews if necessary.

Once the Architect completes the review and releases the item back to the Contractor, the item turns black for the Consultant and Architect, indicating that the item has completed the review process.
