A document review is a process in which a specific version of a document is assigned to one or more people to review. At some organizations, reviews represent a helpful way of sharing information and gathering specific comments or feedback from others. At others, this type of collaboration is required as part of a quality process or compliance directive.
Initiate a review when you have a document that requires the approval of one or more people. For example, you might have a new document that requires that four other members of your department review it. Before making the document available to all members of the project, you have each department member review the document for accuracy.
Note: Document reviews require installation of the content repository with P6. Contact your P6 for more information.
When starting a document review, you can specify reviewers and select a review type. These review types determine the approval requirements and reviewer sequence:
Anyone May Review: Enables any of the listed reviewers to approve or reject the document version. Once one reviewer approves it, the review status changes to Review Approved; once one reviewer rejects it, the review status changes to Review Rejected.
Everyone Must Review: Requires each listed reviewer to respond to the document review to complete it. To change the review status to Review Approved, all reviewers must approve the document. To change the review status to Review Rejected, only one reviewer needs to reject the document.
Everyone Must Review in Sequence: Requires each listed reviewer to respond to the document review in a designated sequence to complete it. To change the review status to Review Approved, all reviewers must approve the document. To change the review status to Review Rejected, only one reviewer needs to reject the document. Once one reviewer rejects the document, the review is complete.
