Completing a Post Review Approval

Approvals in ERA with Post Approval functionality requires both the Coordinator and Initiator to take action on the approval in order to complete it. The Coordinator will provide final comments on the file, which is then sent over to the Initiator who will either Archive the approval or create a New Revision.

The steps below detail how a Coordinator completes a standard ERA approval.

  1. When a Post Review approval has been reviewed by all team members, the approval enters the Pending Completion state and the Coordinator will receive a Routing Complete email informing them that all team members have provided signoff on the approval. 
  2. From the main ERA screen, the Coordinator selects the Complete link from the Actions column. This will open the Complete Approval page.
  3. Select a signoff status from the drop-down menu and provide any additional comments in the available text box.
  4. Select Send Feedback to commit the signoff status to the system.
  5. Once the Send Feedback button is selected, an email is sent to the Initiator, who will then have the option to either Archive the approval or begin a New Revision.
    • Archive is used if no further revisions are required at the time, and will change the approval state to Archived. A New Revision can be made from an Archived approval at any time.
    • New Revision will generate a new revision for the approval and open the Edit Approval page.
