Send governed bundles for review

The GovernanceAdmin determines the approval stages for each policy. Additionally, there may be different approval stages based on the type of policy required for your governed bundles.

A simple approval flow might look something like this:

Example of a review flow

Step 1: Submit a governed bundle for review

After you have added a file or created a new governed bundle, you must submit it for review. The easiest way to do this is immediately after creating a new governed bundle. When you request a review, the approver will be notified that a review task has been created for them.

  1. From your Project, go to Governance > Bundles.

  2. Select the bundle that you want to send for review.

  3. On Stage 1, fill in the required information to progress.

  4. Proceed to the next stage and fill in that required information until you reach a stage with the Approval required flag.

Step 2: Request a final approval

A practitioner can answer all the questions relating to the governed bundle and attach all the required evidence and then submit a request for approval. Only an approver can mark a bundle as completed once all stages have been satisfied.

As a practitioner, you’ll need to request a review for that final stage:

  1. Fill in each required field for this stage of your review process.

  2. When complete, click Request Review.

  3. Verify that a task was created for this review request by navigating to the Domino Welcome page.

Step 3: Approve a governed bundle

As a practitioner, you must wait for your governed bundle to be approved before publishing. As an approver, you are granted project access and can review all project details. You will receive a notification when approval is required, and a task has been assigned to you.

  1. Navigate to the approval request.

  2. You can approve the request if it meets all acceptance criteria.

  3. If it doesn’t meet approval, add comments where you need changes made to the bundle.

Step 4: Publish your bundle after approval

After all required approvals are received, the approver can:

  1. Open your Evidence notebook that was awaiting approval.

  2. Click to select Transition Stage.

  3. Choose Stages Complete from the menu.

  4. Your bundle is complete. No additional files can be added or changes made to the evidence.
