Review, approve and activate a release
Review a different author’s candidate, then deliberately activate it for new evaluations.
For reviewers
This lesson uses a fictional frame and a person with only the reviewer role. No result here is approved for real manufacture.
Read these instructions on any device. Watch or practise a chapter on a desktop or laptop, with a desktop or mobile application layout. Demonstrations use sample data and simulated scanners.

- Review queue
Review queue.
Open review queue.
- Open the independent candidate
Open the independent candidate.
Another person prepared this model and its expected cases. You did not contribute to this candidate.
- Inspect changes and independent expectations
Inspect changes and independent expectations.
Compare the model changes, exact units, engineering scope and independently expected examples. Passing tests alone are not engineering approval.
- Confirm the engineering review
Confirm the engineering review.
Confirm only after you have reviewed the complete engineering evidence. The fictional frame is not a qualified manufacturing design.
- Approve the candidate
Approve the candidate.
Approval preserves this reviewed version. Activation for new evaluations is a separate action.
- Open the activation controls
Open the activation controls.
Select a previously approved release deliberately. Existing accepted results do not change.
- Choose the approved release
Choose the approved release.
Choose the release you have just approved, not an unreviewed draft.
- Prepare the activation comparison
Prepare the activation comparison.
Check the baseline and historical comparisons before selecting a release for new work.
- Explain this activation
Explain this activation.
Record why the approved release is being selected. This example remains evaluation-only.
- Confirm the selected release
Confirm the selected release.
Confirm that this is the version you intend to use for new evaluations.
- Activate for new evaluations
Activate for new evaluations.
Activate the reviewed version. This still does not qualify the family for manufacture.
Check the current record and your own authority before working with real data. An evaluation result never authorises manufacture.
