Reverting a Step or Status Change

A permission can be granted to users so they can access the Revert action, which enables them to revert a candidate submission's progression in the candidate selection workflow.

The permission "Revert step or status change" was created to grant or deny users access to the Revert action in the More Actions menu. With this permission, it is possible to determine if:

  • a user can revert a step or status change,

  • a user can revert a step or status change but only if the action to be reverted has been performed by that user,

  • a user cannot revert a step or status change.

The following permissions/rules apply on top of the "Revert step or status change" permission. A user granted the "Revert step or status change" permission will be unable to perform a revert action if one of the existing rules is not met.

  • Users must have the "Change submission status" permission to revert a status change action.

  • Users must have the "Change submission status" permission and the "Move submissions to next step" permission to revert a step change action.

  • Users must have the "View candidates in steps whose security level is "Restricted" permission to see restricted steps to revert a step change action for which, once reverted, the submission will be on a restricted step.

The table shows permissions for step and status.
