Accept or Reject Suggestions

This guide explains how Project Owners or Managers can review, accept, or reject suggestions made by Approvers during the multi-step approval workflow in Authorium. These actions are essential to finalize the review process and resume the approval flow.

Permissions Required

Only users with the Project Owner or Project Manager role can accept or reject suggestions and resume the approval process.

When to Accept or Reject Suggestions​

You should take action on suggestions when:

  • An Approver has provided feedback instead of approving the content outright.
  • You need to update the document based on suggested changes.
  • The approval process is paused until the suggestions are addressed.

To Review and Respond to Suggestions​

  1. Go to the project workflow stage with the pending suggestions.
  2. Click View Changes to open the document and see the suggested edits.
  3. Review the blue suggestion banners and comments in the right-hand activity log.
  4. Choose one of the following actions:
    • Revise Content to Resolve Changes: Update the document based on the suggestions.
      • Click Revise Content to Resolve Changes, then confirm with Change Stage Status and Revise.
      • Make edits and click Submit and Complete once updates are done.
    • Reject Suggestions: Click Reject Suggestions to proceed without applying the changes.
  5. After accepting or rejecting, restart the approval step by clicking Begin Approval or Resume Approval, as applicable.
