Document Review and Consolidation

 
The processes defined for reviewing a document involves creating a transmittal and selecting an appropriate workflow.  Creating a transmittal is describes in the section Create a Transmittal.
 
Review, Consolidation, Endorsement and Approving are steps within a transmittal workflow. In general, there are three tasks to perform when responding to actionable notifications (refer to SPF Notifications) before a workflow step can be completed.
 
Two review workflows have been defined for review of information:
The delivery team review workflow sends content from a submitter to document control.  Upon approval by document control, the information is then sent to all recipients for review.  The governance review workflow requires discipline and project approval prior to the document control approval.  In both processes, after the information is approved by document control, it proceeds to the reviewers.  In both cases, document revisions are frozen under the status Current as they are approved by document control. 
 
In both cases the information must be consolidated. The delivery team review has a single step to define this activity while governance review enforces a client consolidation step independent from an internal consolidation step.
