Doing a Periodic Review and Creating a New Version

When you, as a document, questionnaire, or campaign owner, create a content item, you have the opportunity to indicate how often you want to be reminded to review that item to see if it needs updating (see Review Date). If you set a periodic review date, either relative to the approval date or from a specific date, you'll receive a task notification email and a task in My Tasks as the review due date approaches.

To start a periodic review, do one of the following:

Open the task notification email, and then click the content item link.

Click My Tasks, click Periodic Review Required to show those tasks, and then click the document/questionnaire title.

Find and open the content item using the Documents I Own option for My Relationship when using Search or Browse (see Searching for a Content Item or Browsing for a Content Item).

Review the content item, and then take one of the following actions:

If the content item needs revision, click Create New Version to make a copy of the approved content item and place it in Draft status. Make updates, and then move the new version through the review and approval process as you normally would. When the new version is approved, the previously approved version is automatically archived.

If the document/questionnaire does not need to be revised, click , and then click No Revision Necessary.

A discussion window appears for you to explain why you are resetting the review interval without making changes. Complete the discussion form (see Working with Discussions for details), click Save, and then click OK.

If the document/questionnaire is obsolete (needs no revision and will no longer be used), click , and then click Archive.
