To Do

The To Do tab lists all reviews that the signed-in user needs to take action on. This tab also displays the action allowed by the signed in reviewer, the status of review, review details such as name, process name and review type, the current stage of the review, and the time available for the signed-in user to take action on the review. The Comments icon next to a review indicates that comments have been added by the assigned stage reviewers. Click the icon to view all the comments.

This tab enables signed-in reviewers to view the progress of all reviews assigned to them and take actions on them, depending on the status of the Action allowed column. If the signed in reviewer is not allowed to take action on the primary objects, the signed in reviewer must navigate to the secondary objects and take action on them individually. The status of the Action allowed column can be reset by the Administrator while adding stages for a process. See, Create New Process - Reviewers.

Depending on the action taken, the status of the review changes. The status changes as follows:

  • If all the secondary objects have the status Pending , the status on the To Do tab is Pending
  • If action has been taken on only a few secondary objects, the status on the To Do tab is Partially Reviewed
  • If action has been taken on all the secondary objects of a process, the status on the To Do tab is Reviewed

Once a review process is executed, stage reviewers receive an email notification that the reviews assigned to them are available for review on their To Do tab.

The following reviews are displayed on this page:

  • Unread reviews: These reviews are displayed in bold text.
  • The icons next to the reviews indicate the status of the review. Hover your mouse over the icon to view the status of the review.
  • Reviews without secondary objects. These are the review objects for which there are no secondary review objects associated while creating the review process.

You can perform the following actions on this tab:

  • Search for a review. See, Common Functionality.
  • View the review summary: Click More next to a review, to view the summary of the review. The Summary window displays details such as action taken by the signed-in reviewer on the secondary review objects, data sources selected for the process and the process name. Other details such as the number of reviewers assigned for the review and the current stage of the review are also displayed.
  • View comments: Click the Comments icon next to the review. The Comments  pop-up window displayed enables reviewers view comments added by the assigned reviewers. The date and time displayed on this tab is according to the local time zone configured on the Preferences page.
  • Take action on assigned reviews: The action taken here is the action performed on the primary review object and applies to all the secondary objects associated with that review. However, if the signed in reviewer is not allowed to take action on the primary objects, reviewers can take action on the secondary objects individually on the Review Details page. See, Review Details. To take action on a review, select the check box next to the review and click one of the following:
    • Approve: Click the Approve icon to approve the review. This is global approval; that is, all the secondary review objects are also approved.
      Note: 

      The Comment text box will pop-up only if you have chosen to enforce comments on approval of processes. See, Create or Modify a Process.

      The process occurrence moves to the History tab after all the reviews in that process occurrence are committed.

        Note:  Individual secondary objects participating in the review can be reassigned on the Review Details page. See, Review Details.
    • Lock: You may have to lock a review for one of the following reasons:
      • You may need more information on the review objects before taking action.
      • You do not want other stage reviewers to take action on the review.

        However, a locked review may get unlocked automatically in the following scenarios:

        • If the review is escalated.
        • If a Process Administrator reassigns the locked review to another reviewer, the review gets unlocked and appears on the To Do tab of the reassigned reviewer.
        • If the reviewer who has locked the review takes action on the locked review.
      • Comment: Reviewers can add their comments about specific assignments. Subsequent reviewers can view these comments when the review appears on their To Do tab. To comment on a review:
        1. Select the review to be commented and click the Comment icon. The Comments pop-up window is displayed.
        2. Select the check box to share your comment with Infor Xi colleagues or groups.

      • Deny: Select a review and click the Deny icon to reject the review. All the secondary review objects are also denied and the review is considered complete even if additional review stages are set up. See,Create or Modify a Process.

        For example, there is a review with 3 review stages. The review is approved by the first reviewer but the second reviewer denies the assignments. The review will not be routed to the third stage reviewer and is marked as complete.

        The denied review is moved to the History tab only after all the reviews in that process occurrence are committed by the assigned reviewers.
        Note:  Individual secondary objects participating in the review can be denied on the Review Details page. See, Review Details.
      • Commit: After you approve or deny a review, select the review and click the Commit icon to confirm your action and route the review to the next stage reviewer or to the sign-off auditor. If you select multiple reviews and click the Commit icon, only those reviews which have been approved or denied are routed to the next stage reviewer. The reviews on which action has not yet been taken are not committed. These reviews remain in the To Do panel of the signed-in reviewer.
        Note: The Commit option is displayed only if you have selected the Make comment mandatory for the Process check box when defining the certification process.

If these check boxes are not selected, reviewers have to take action on individual secondary objects from the Review Details page.
