Open the left-hand sidebar
Open the Users page
Locate the user who requires their plan to be reviewed
Click the '+' button in the Reviewer column
Select the user who will be responsible for Reviewing and Approving their plan
How to review plans
Finding plans to review
If you have been set as a Reviewer, you will find all plans that need your approval under the 'Tasks for Review' space:
Open the Gantt
Click into the Space Selector
Select 'Tasks for Review'
Marking work as reviewed
Once you have Reviewed the plans you are responsible for, you are in charge of approving the user's work:
Open the Ready Menu from the Gantt (by clicking the X / X Reviewed) button
Scroll to the 'Work for Review' section
Mark each plan as Reviewed by using the check-boxes towards the right of the dropdown
When to review plans
Typically, teams aim for all 'Awaiting Review' plans to be Approved and Reviewed before the weekly Publication Deadline. You can find the deadline at the top of the Gantt:
How to see the Reviewed Plans Summary for the Project
You can see whose plans have been Approved, and whose plans are still Awaiting Review, by opening the Next Publication Summary:
Click the Publication Deadline at the top of the Gantt
Open the Next Publication
Inside the table you will find a breakdown of all Reviewed and Readied work
