  You must be assigned the Admin Superuser or Project Superuser global security profile to group by review status.
2. To see the assigned reviewers for a status update and the type of the review, select  Reviewers.

Tips

A status update might have more than one reviewer and might require that any reviewer approves the update or that all assigned reviewers approve ir.
Team members can continue to make updates to activities that have not been approved yet or are on hold. The status updates will reflect the latest team member updates.
Pending updates for a project checked out in P6 Professional or opened exclusively are not displayed until the project is checked in or the exclusive lock is released.
When team members update Actual Units, the updated value for Remaining Units is displayed when the field is updated by the team member or calculated automatically. The Remaining Units field is displayed even when the field is not selected for editing in the Project Preferences dialog box.
Steps that are added or deleted by team members do not go through the approval process.
