How to Use Comments and Feedback

Leave comments on report sections.

Comments keep review conversations next to the thing being discussed.

In the report editor

  1. Select a section in the outline.
  2. Open the Comments tab in the section inspector.
  3. Click Add a comment, write your message.

Reviewers use comments to explain what to change. When a reviewer chooses Request changes they write the reason, and the author gets a Report returned notification.

Who can comment

Admin, Project Manager, M&E Officer, Grants Officer, Field Officer and Compliance Officer. Viewers are read-only.

Other feedback

  • Activities: reviewers must add a note when they send a revision request or reject an update.
  • Compliance items: notes are required when resolving an item and are kept with it.
  • Statements: when you keep a flagged statement you add a note explaining why it is acceptable.
  • Indicators and evidence: Needs correction and Rejected decisions carry a reason.

All comments, notes and decisions are stored in the audit trail.
